Opening general templates
I would like to be able to get to the general templates
screen from File - New, instead of having to go select General Templates under New from template task bar in WordXP. This was how Word functioned in Word2000. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Open Tools | Customize and look for FileNewDialog under All Commands on the

You can download an Add-In that will give you this ability (without losing
the ability to use the Task Pane) from http://addbalance.com/word/download.htm.

Is there a way to open the window in one of the other tabs (not the general
tab)? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... Open Tools | Customize and look for FileNewDialog under All Commands on the Commands tab.

Opening general templates
Possibly with VBA or SendKeys. You'll have to hope for an answer from
someone who knows about such stuff. -- Suzanne S.

Opening general templates
Charles,
I downloaded your add-in that brings up the Templates with File/New. I have created folders below the default template folder to hold certain templates. What I am trying to do is open the template window in one of the sub folders instead of opening in the general templates and having to click on the tab for that sub-folder.
