New Office Document Template window

Pdrwa

I've just upgraded to Office 2007 Professional from Office XP.

In Office XP and earlier versions of Office, there was a New Office Document
option that opened a window that showed all installed (and customized) Office
templates. I used it all the time as it was a quick way to create a new
document.

Is there such an option in Office 2007 and if so, how do I find it?

Hi Pdrwa,

There are three different dialogs that can be used in Office 2007.
If, in any of the apps you use Office button=>New you get the revamped dialog that gives you accesss to the templates on your PC and
available in Officeonline.

In that same dialog use the 'Installed Templates' choice
(Office button=>New=>Installed templates to get the thumbnail based version of the previous vesion dialog.

The older New Office Document dialog that was accessed through the Start menu is an optional installation item from the Microsoft
Office 2007 choice in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel.

Bob,

Thanks for the info about the optional choice. I had found the templates in
each program and it's just not as quick as going directly to the New Document
screen, especially if I don't remember which program the template was in :).

Thanks again!
