Templates located on network

[gordo]

My organization has 3 locations. On each location's server there is a
templates folder that users' workgroup templates path is redirected to using
policies. Occassionally, documents need to move from one locations serv er
to another. When this is done, when the document is opened, it still
accesses the template from the original server. Is there a way to get these
documents to point to the local templates folder rather than the templates
folder it originated from?

Thanks for the help

Tools->options->file locations. You will need to reset this manually each
time the user moves.

Thanks for the reply Milly.

The issue does not seem to be connected to the users settings - it is
connected to where the document was originally created. I'm at site A with a
templates path of \\serverA\Templates. If I open a document that is now
located on ServerA, but was originally created at Site B, when I open a
document, a session is created to the original templates folder
\\ServerB\templates.

Any thoughts?
