Word 2003 - File-New

[Lorne]

I have just upgraded to Word 2003.

When I press file-new it no longer gives me a view of templates on my
computer. How can I get that menu to show automatically rather than the
annoying help pane that comes up requiring me to find the right line and
click again to get what I want.

You can add the old command back to your toolbars or menus by dragging it
from the All Commands list in the Tools > Customize dialog. It is called
FileNewDialog.

The default label for this command is "Other...", so you may want to change
this while you are in Customize mode.

Thanks - never found that one when I was looking.

Glad to have helped - it's hardly obvious, is it!
