When you change the User Templates Location setting or the Workgroup
Templates Location setting using the Settings tab in the Customize
dialog box for the Office Shortcut Bar (OSB), the New dialog box in
each of the Microsoft Office programs may display different tabs.
Additionally, if you change the User Templates or the Workgroup
Templates setting in Microsoft Word (on the File Locations tab in the
Options dialog box ), the New dialog box in each of the Microsoft
Office programs may display different tabs.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs because you can change the templates location
settings used by each of the Office programs by using either the
customize dialog box for the Office Shortcut Bar (the User Templates
Location and Workgroup Templates Location settings) or the Options
dialog box in Microsoft Word (User Templates and the Workgroup
Templates settings). That is, if you change the templates location
setting in the Customize dialog box for the Office Shortcut Bar, the
setting is changed in Microsoft Word, and vice versa. Both of these
locations affect the tabs displayed in the New dialog box in Microsoft
Excel, Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, and the New dialog box displayed by
clicking the Start A New Document button on the Office Shortcut Bar.
