Post subject: Changing default location of PowerPoint templates- Urgent Archived from groups: microsoft>public>powerpoint (more info?)
Hi,
I am using PowerPoint 2003 professional (SP 1).
I want PowerPoint to point to my folder where I have stored some custom
powerpoint templates. I read a lot of web answers and followed all that, it
is still not working for me.
I tried to store my templates under C:> Documents and Settings | [my
Profile] | Application Data | Microsoft | Templates
This did not work.
Everytime when I am creating a new presentation I choose ' Templates--> On
my computer' As per the dozens of posts I read, Powerpoint should show an
extra tab with my folder's name.

Pranav,
It should work, you need at least one template in that folder to make the
tab appear in the dialog.
If necessary just copy an existing template in the folder or make a brand
new one and store it there.
Now try again, the tab should be there.
Have a look here:
