MACRO to go to a specific template folder

[kurt]

Hello,

In Word XP (2002) I would like to write a macro that goes
to File/New/Choose document... (from the task pane) and
then to a specific folder on the network (where my
client's templates will be loaded in multiple subfolders.

So, when the user activates the macro, he will be at
the "New From Existing Document" window at the correct
folder from which he will go to a subfolder of his choice.

Any HELP???

THANKS!!!

-Kurt

change

Application.Options.DefaultFilePath(wdDocumentsPath)

before showing the dialog. www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/index.html has a
number of clever ideas on where to actually put this line. For
example, the Document_Open event, the Window_Change event,
intercepting the actual command (probably the best) and so on.
