File Paths

[Andy Newland]

Hi all,

This should be a fairly easy one for you guys!

All of my company documents are created using templates.
As I understand it when the document is loaded the
attached templates are being searched for in the following
order.

1. Templates and add-ins location
2. User Templates location
3. Workgroup Templates location
4. Installed application templates location

My question is this - When word is searching for a teplate
in caes 2 or 3 does it also seach in sub directories of
the main locations?

I have done a quick test and the answer seems to be no. I
would just like to have this confirmed.

Why not just test it yourself and report back?
