How to delete standard templates in Word ?
Hello All,
I'm working in a company where we have quite a few Word 2003 templates of our own in quite a few categories. The original word-supplied templates are never used. The list of my own categories of templates - when creating a new document - goes under the heading "more...". How do I remove the standard templates from the list that I get when I do File - New - On My Computer, so I can choose from my own templates a bit easier? I tried just removing the templates from C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates, but when I made a new document it just gives the same list and when you choose one of the standard templates it will re-install. Can someone point me to the right docs for this please? TIA Peter-Paul Jansen Rijswijk, The Netherlands |

The only thing I could find was under Add/remove windows modules (or some such, I have the dutch version at the moment)under accessories- documet templates. I unchecked it, but this did not help much. Peter-Paul |

You have to uninstall them by re-running *Office* setup from the Add or
Remove programs applet and changing the installation to remove the templates. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org PPJansen wrote: Stefan Blom schreef: Have you tried uninstalling the templates via Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel?

In Control Panel, open the install program for *Office*; it should
allow you to uninstall the templates. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PPJansen" wrote in message ...

God, I feel stupid. I've gone past that bit maybe a hundred times.
Thanks a million -- kind regards, Peter-Paul Jansen The Hague, The Netherlands Stefan Blom schreef: In Control Panel, open the install program for *Office*; it should allow you to uninstall the templates. |
