Deploying templates
Jesús,
Can't say for sure about 2007 version, but you can try these for previous versions: There the Office wide setting, that is not visible in the Excel OptionsGeneral (but is visible in Word's) shown by ?application.NetworkTemplatesPath C:\Documents and Settings\{UserName}\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates Again this is visble in Word's Options but not Excel's, shown by ?application.TemplatesPath NickHK "Jesús López" wrote in message ...

Deploying templates
NickHK, Thanks for your response.
However I don't want to deploy the templates to "user templates" I want the templates to be available for all users. There are several Excel templates in %ProgramFiles%\Office\Templates which are showed when you choose File-New- Installed templates. I guess these are machine wide templates available for every user. I have done the following experiment: delete one predefined template from %ProgramFiles%\Office\Templates, and then choosing File-New-Installed templates. Excel still show the template, but with a X sign, meaning it is not available yet. I guess Excel stores a reference to installed or predefined templates somewhere on the machine. Where Excel stores information on predefined templates? Is it possible to add new Excel predefined templates ? How can I add a predefined or installed template in Excel 2007 and Excel 2003?

Deploying templates
Then look into using Application.NetworkTemplatesPath and making sure each
user has this set to the same shared folder. You can set it with e.g.: Application.NetworkTemplatesPath="L:\\SharedTempla tes\" NickHK "Jesús López" wrote in message ...
