The order in which global templates are loaded in Word

Hi,

Could anyone tell me in what order Global Templates in the Startup folder
are loaded when Word first opens? I recall something about template loading
in reverse Alphabetical order but have not been able to find the article in
which I had read that. The reason that I am asking is that it seems that
Adobe is loading in Word and locking the toolbars collection, preventing
other toolbars and menus from being handled by other global templates. I
would greatly appreciate it if anyone could either confirm this or tell me
the order in which templates really do load into Word?

Thank you.

Reverse alphabetic it is. I don't know if it's documented anywhere, but that
was my own experience, and others have confirmed it. I was dealing with
exactly the same problem as yours, and fixed it by re-naming my add-in to
precede PDFMaker. The problem is not that PDFMaker locks the toolbars, but
that it *resets* it, clearing any additions or changes made by other
add-ins.

Note that this problem is specific to Acrobat 6. Version 7 also stuffs
things up, but in different ways.
