Word 2008 - Using Templates and Compatability

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

I have created several files in Word 2008 using templates (.dot) files previously used with Word 2003/2007. Unfortunately, my customer keeps receiving an error when opening the new file I create. The new file (created in .doc format) has some hidden data that is pointing to the template folder on my Mac. The error looks like:

Could not open: 'user:Libarary:Application Support:Microsoft:Offce:User Templates:template.dot

My customer can fix this error by using the remove hidden data tool inside Office 2003, but that's a real pain-in-the-neck!

Can someone tell me how to fix issue when I save the file on my Mac??? I need to remove the link between the template (.dot) and the file (.doc).
