Where are the Word2007 templates

[Roger]

I previously posted a question (16 March) about workgroup templates. I have
installed our templates in word options>advanced>file locations and it all
works just fine. However, when we look at new templates I also get the
word2007 "standard" templates in the faxes, letters, other documents,
reports, and resumes groups. I have looked for these to delete them but
can't find them. Can someone tell me how to get rid of them, please ?

thanks ... Roger

Thanks, that helps a lot. I have a small macro which I used in Word2003
which opens the new templates in "list" view instead of the "large icons"
view which seems to be the default view in Word2007 as it was in Word 2003.
I notice with the macro that it seems to be quite slow compared with its use
in Word2003, and also it seems to open the new templates window in large
icons view first, then changes it into list view.

Does Word2007 handle macros in a different way to Word 2003 ? My little
macro is simple, just
SendKeys"%2"
Dialogs(wdDialogFileNew).Show
Is there a different approach I can use with Word2007 to get list view
automatically (instead of using a maco) ?

thanks ... Roger

I'm no VBA expert, but if you post a request into one of the Word VBA
newsgroups, I'm sure someone will jump in with the code to Open the New
dialog in List View.
