Where is Quick Parts Gallery stored?
I thought that Quick Parts is a very convenient feature of Office/Word 07.
I recently created many building blocks for Quick Parts. I want to copy the updated Quick Part Gallery to my other computer. I thought that they were stored in the Building Blocks.dotx. But it does not seem so because the date and file size of Building Blocks dotx did not change. Its date is still 10/27/2006 even though I created several building blocks for word this morning.

Jorge,
Did you save the buidling blocks that you created to the Building Blocks template or some other template? Are you looking "your" customized version Building Blocks.dotx or the clean version that shipped with Word. See the second tip (green text) he http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Word2007_B...&_AutoText.htm Jorge Cervantes wrote: I thought that Quick Parts is a very convenient feature of Office/Word 07.

That webpage is very informative. I found this line:
The exact location of your Building Blocks.dotx templates will be determined by your installation path and user name. I scanned C-drive for "dotx" to find my custom made building blocks.dotx. But it failed in locating it. Jorge. "Greg Maxey" wrote in message ... Jorge, Did you save the buidling blocks that you created to the Building Blocks template or some other template?

Jorge,
The customized template should be located in Document Settings/Your User Name/Application Data/MicrosoftDocument Building Blocks/####/Building Blocks.dotx. Where #### is the number of you language version (mine is 1033 for U.S. English) Jorge Cervantes wrote: That webpage is very informative.

Greg,
I found the mystery. As you mentioned in earlier post, I found that none of my building blocks were saved. The reason was that macro was automatically disabled because my documents were not from the trust center. Now. I solved the problem. Thanks again. Jorge "Greg Maxey" wrote in message ...
