OFF95: How to Add a Tab to the New Dialog Box (149222)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Office for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q149222 SUMMARY
In any of the Microsoft Office programs, when you click New on the File
menu, or you click the Start A New Document button on the Office Shortcut
Bar, the New dialog box is displayed. The New dialog box has different tabs
that display templates available for a program. The number of tabs that are
displayed varies according to the program from which the New dialog box was
invoked.
In Office 7.0, you can add your own tabs to the New dialog box. This
article outlines the procedure you can use to do this.
MORE INFORMATION
The tabs in the New dialog box represent folders within the <hard drive
letter>:\MSOffice\Templates folder. To add your own tab to the New dialog
box, create or move a folder to the Templates folder. The name of the tab
will be the same as the name of the folder you just added to the Templates
folder.
NOTE: In order for the folder to appear as a tab in the New dialog box, the
folder that you put into the Templates folder must contain at least one
file. Also, this tab may not be displayed in the New dialog box if it
contains only templates for programs other than the program in which you
are currently working.
