How do I point Excel to a new template location?

[MalRev]

I changed from Office 2003 to 2007. I keep my templates in a folder
"Templates" under My Documents. This allows me to back them up easily.
I have changed the file location in Word so it opens the folder where my
templates are stored but I cannot find out how to get Excel to point to the
new location where my Excel templates are stored.

I don't have access to Office 2007 right now - I know it's in there. Work
your way thru the tabs, you'll find it.

I moved the template location in Word 2007 for exactly the same reason as
the OP - if I then do Save-As in Excel and choose Template, it automatically
picks up the Template location that I moved. It seems that Excel
automatically picks up the Template location wherever it's moved to....
