My organization needs to change the present Word 2002 workgroup template path from:

\\server1\office\template
to
\\server2\office\template.

I want this change performed in an automated fashion without having to visit 175 workstations or without each user having to manually search and set the path.

Does anyone know of any macro commands I can use and create so that the user would only have to click on a button to make this change.

Please help...Desperate Dude.
 
Not sure if this can be done via macro, we did it in Windows registry:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\General\Shared Templates for Office 2003.

Actually, I advise you to set a POLICY that will make the Registry setting, rather than
using a macro. More information on policies can be found in the Office Resource Kit. And
if you need help, I advise asking in the office.setup or word.setup.networking newsgroup.
