When we open a document with a template \\servername\folder and the server
does not exist i e when opening a document attached in an email it takes
about 5 minutes to open the document.

The problem occours when working in a net work. If we replace the template
path with normal.dot the document opens fast. But there are thounsands of
documents.

If I open the same document in Vista or in Server 2008 R2 I can press ESC to
stop Word looking after the template. But it does not work in Windows 7.

maybe it will work
