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. Dee wrote: If I have excel templates that I want to share with others, how would I do this.

Excel Templates
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). -- HTH, RD ================================================== === Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ================================================== === "Dee" wrote in message ...
