Where are template files stored for Word/Excel/etc.?

[Maria C R]

Hi,

I'm running WIN XP PRO, and I have Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.
There are several templates that are already on the computer and when I go
to "New Document" and go from tab to tab, such as from "Letters" to
"Spreadsheets", etc. they are displayed as an option.

I downloaded some new templates from the Microsoft Template Gallery online
and I saved them to the "My Documents" folder. But... I want to move them to
the folder where all the other templates are, so it could appear in the
window when I click on "New Document" and search through all the templates
available.

Anybody know how I can do this?

Thanks,
Maria

Maria,

The template files are located under Programs Files/Microsoft
Office/Templates and then whatever folder that is associated with your
template.
