Is there any way to find out which directory the MS Office templates are in,
short of a recursive search on all local drives?

SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(handle, CSIDL_TEMPLATES, pidl) provides a
directory named "...\ShellNew" on Windows 98, and a "...\Template" directory
on Win 2K, neither of which are really used for MS Office templates.

Thanks,

Bill

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Common\Gene
ral - there's a UserTemplates value, and possibly one for  
SharedTemplates.

Thanks Deborah. I checked there and there is a "Templates" value, which is
set to just "Templates". There's no "UserTemplates" value.
