Sharing template over network?
 
I would like to create and store some templates on a network and have all
users be able to access them.

Is this possible, and if so, how do I go about it?

Thanks
Frank

Sharing template over network?
 
Create your templates in that nice dedicated shared drive/folder.

Then have each user open MSWord.
Tools|options|file location tab
Have them change their workgroup templates location to point at your location.

(I think I'd try to use the UNC path instead of the mapped drive letter--but
that's just for consistency.)

Excel respects that setting, but doesn't give you a way to get to it directly.
