Anne,
I don't find a listing of Recently Used Templates in Word 2003. The only
listing I have is Recently Opened Files. The number of items listed there is
set in Tools --> Options --> General Tab.
But, if you might be referring to the dialog box where Word lists your
Templates on the General Tab and you only see 4 then maybe the following will
help from Help in Word 2003
----------------
The Templates folder
By default, templates (including Normal.dot) are stored in C:\Documents and
Settings\user name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates. Template files that
you save in the Templates folder appear on the General tab in the Templates
dialog box, which you display by clicking New on the File menu, and then
clicking On my computer in the New Document task pane. Any document (.doc) file
that you save in the Templates folder also acts as a template.
If you want to create custom tabs for your templates in the Templates dialog
box, create a new subfolder in the Templates folder and save your templates in
that subfolder. The folder location must match the path listed for User
Templates on the File Locations tab (Tools menu, Options command). The name you
give that subfolder will appear on the new tab. If you save a template in a
different location, the template will not appear in the Templates dialog box.
-------------
To test I copied a template (*.dot file) into my folder "C:\Documents and
Settings\user name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates" and the next time I
opened Word the template was listed on the General Tab. So all you may need to
do is copy your dot files into the "C:\Documents and Settings\user
name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates" folder.

Hi all
I use a lot of different templates while working within Word but I can only
ever have 4 showing up as available in "Recently Used Templates" when
I show
the new document taskpane. Is there any way of increasing this number to
save me so many key strokes in my normal day!
TIA.
Anne
