Ok PJM...here's the deal In XP, the path is: C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates The *hitch* is that Application Data is a hidden folder, so in XP you need to show your hidden folders to see it...do this: go into My Computer and click on the Tools menu and choose Folder Options. In there, click on the View Tab and put a check where it says "Show hidden files and folders" and UNCHECK "Hide extensions for known file types" and "Hide protected operating system files". Now, when you search for it, you should find it.

I have c:\Documents and Settings\User Name (mine) and then other folders, none which appear to contain anything about templates. Suggestions?
