From: Daryll on 16 Mar 2010 10:29 I have just upgraded one of our PCs from Word 2003 on XP to Word 2007 on Win 7 and I really am regretting it ! We have about 100 templates, in 4 folders, that are used by everyone in our workgroup. With Word 2003 these are set as the workgroup templates, and I have a little icon on the toolbar with SendKeys "%2" Dialogs(wdDialogFileNew).Show as a macro behind it which opens the templates so we can see the listing of templates (the List view). In Word 2003 it all has been working fine for years, but in Word 2007 it seems not possible to have the same ? Is it possible in Word 2007, please ? Any help really will be appreciated ... Roger
From: Graham Mayor on 16 Mar 2010 11:52 By default there is no Workgroup folder - you will have to configure its location in Word Options > Advanced > File Locations. Thereafter items in the Workgroup folder will appear under the General tab of wdDialogFileNew if you use your macro. Sub folders of the Wordgroup Folder will appear as tabs, if they contain templates. In this Word 2007 is pretty much the same as Word 2003. -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "Daryll" <Wilson98556(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:u18YOURxKHA.4492(a)TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... >I have just upgraded one of our PCs from Word 2003 on XP to Word 2007 on >Win > 7 and I really am regretting it !
