Move Document Templates
Have a number of especially designed Document Templates ( .dot) in
MSWord2000. Contemplating installing 2003 and don’t want to loose these custom templates. How do I locate the MSW2000 .dot files in order to save and later copy them to the newly installed 2003 software? Secondly, what would be the directory path in Word2003 to place these custom Templates in the new software's working folder? If this is not feasible, what do you suggest?

Move Document Templates
If you install Word 2003 over Word 2000, your templates should remain in
place without issue. But see these articles: “OFF2000: How Office 2000 Manages Templates” http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=240216 “WD2000: Understanding the Template Path and Normal.dot” http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=214215 “Frequently Asked Questions About the Location of Templates in Word 2003” http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=826867 -- Suzanne S.
