Configure default template location using ADM in group policy

[Guest]

I have installed the Office 2003 Administrative templates in our group
policy. I want to be able to set the default location for Word to use for
templates (both user templates and workgroup templates) automatically using
group policy. However, under the 'Tools', 'Options', 'File Locations'
section of the ADM, it only seems to allow me to set the default 'Document'
location, and there is no option for templates. Any suggestions on how I can
do this?

newsgroup. That's where the specialists for this kind of thing congregate
