Default file location tab?

When I check in the tools/options/ file location tab to see what is in the
startup file, it does not show the files that are actually there.

Those files are only shown when I go out of Word and into Windows Explorer
to that file location? I know they are there, but Is there a way to make them
show in Word's file locations tab? thanks.

Also is there a good tutorial on how to do macros on the web?

Why would it?

No AFAIK - and again, why would it? that menu option is to set the LOCATION
of files, as it states, not to SEE them.

To add to Gordon's reply, everything in the Startup folder that is a valid
template will be loaded. You cannot navigate to the folder and select just
one of the templates to load from that dialog. That is why you can only
select a folder for Startup and not any of the contents.
