Finding That Template Location [Word 2010]

It's not always easy to find things in Word 2010 for a legacy user. I could easily write a "how-to" for every function that was formerly available under Word 2003's extensive menu network to give it's Ribbon or DBL (Dialog Box Launcher) equivalent.

 

We'll see if I ever get a need to do that.  Right now, whenever anybody asks me a question that I don't immediately know the answer to, then I'll assume that I'll need to blog on it.
So it turns out that if you cannot find what you're looking for on the Ribbon then it will be living under the File Menu in the Options section

Now normally when I head here I am straight away clicking on the advanced tab and I scroll through the tremendously long list until I find what I'm looking for however in the case of templates you will need to select the tab named "Add ins"

Once you've located the correct tab, at the Drop Down Menu at the bottom type in or select the menu option "Templates" and then click on the Go Button.

 

 





As soon as the next dialog box appears, you recognise that you're in familiar territory - namely it's a Word 2003 dialog box.  The currently attached template is listed at the top of the Templates tab, and you click on the attach button to attach a new template.
