Apparently there is an XP patch about to be released
which is supposed to cut down the delay when Word tries
to open documents with attached templates and the
template has been moved, renamed, etc., As referred to in
KB article 823372. Anyone know when this will be
released - my users can't wait much longer, and no one
here can program in VB to work around!

Thanks for any insight!
