Default How do I change where Excel looks for templates?

I had previously changed where Excel looks for templates but I don't remember
how I ddi it. I was upgraded today to Office 2003 and Excel is back to
looking in the standard folder for templates. So I can no longer see my
templates.

I am not aware of a setting for opening a default location to find *.xlt
(template) files. You can, however, set the default location for all
files:

ToolsOptionsGeneral tab: set the Default File Location here

You can add your personal Templates folder to the My Places bar in FileOpen.

You can alternatively change the path in WordToolsOptionsFile Locations.

This will add your folder to the ones you see when hitting FileNew..General
Templates.
