I'm using Word 2007 on a non-networked machine running Win XP Pro. My
user templates are stored in a Templates folder under My Documents. I
had set this location previously, but I suspect one of the Office
Updates has reset the folder to the default location. When I try to
fix this, the "File Locations" button under Word Options|Advanced|
General is grayed out, so I can't reassign the file locations. Does
anyone know what I need to do to wake up this function?

You might try under Word Options/Resources running the Microsoft Office
diagnostics. That might "kick it loose"?
