I have two questions, please. First, I have been using Macros to create documents (letters, notes, minutes etc) in Word 2010. These rely on a '.dot' user template (originally written for Word 2003). Currently, when I use my macros I get a 'Microsoft Word Err=1078 This file could not be found' error. I believe this may be due to the fact that I need to load my.dot template as my default template. I understand that my.dot template can be specified as the default template (by going to Word Options > Advanced > File Locations > User Templates > File Locations) but I am hesitant about changing the current default (which is apparently loaded from a c: users AppData Roaming Microsoft Templates folder) because if loading my.dot template does not cure Word Error 1078 issue referred to above I would want to revert to the Word 2010 default template. However, I can find no AppData folder (or anything similar) anywhere on my PC. My first question, therefore, is where do I find the Word 210 default user template, given that I do not have a c: users AppData etc folder? I am running Word 2010 (32 bit) with Windows 7 on a Toshiba Satellite 64 bit PC. Secondly, I have searched these forums for an explanation of the Word Err=1078 issue but I have not found one in relation to an issue with Word 2010. My second question, therefore, is whether this error is more likely to have nothing to do with the.dot user template but to have more to do with the fact that I am running macros in Word 2010 which were written in Visual Basis and designed for Word 2003. To be able to see the C: Users AppData folder, you will need to click on the Organize drop down in Windows Explorer and then on Folder and search options and then on the View tab of the Folder Options dialog, select the radio button for Show hidden files, folders, and drives.
