Excel Templates
 

If I have excel templates that I want to share with others, how would I do
this. If I save the templates on a network,is there a way to have everyone
access the templates by going on their computer to File New and have them
listed there. I know in Word in order to share templates, you would have
everyone go into Tools, Options, File Locations and then change where you
access your workgroup templates. Is there a similiar way to do this in excel.
I am using Excel 2003.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,

Dee

Use word to set that workgroup template location and you'll see that excel uses
it, too.

With MS Office installed on all your machines, you can use *exactly* the
same workgroup file location as you're *now* using in Word.

Just copy your .xls files to that *same* workgroup folder that now houses
the .doc files, and Office is smart enough to display *only* the .doc files
in Word, and *only* the.xls files in XL.

If you wish, you can add a sub-folder to that already existing workgroup
folder, and populate it with .xls files, and it will *only* display in XL,
under its own tab (not General), as you named the sub-folder.

Also, if you empty the sub-folder of .xls files, the tab will *disappear*
from XL's Templates folder, even though the folder still exists (empty).
