Hi Paul. Thanks for the pointer - I must have read over the Path option when looking at the menu ;)

I do now see the template paths, including one in a hidden directory under ~. Permissions and all look good, but it still complains that it can't copy the file. I wonder if this might be a problem with the RPM build/packaging or an actual defect in OOo?

I think that I'll try manually copying the file into the template dir and see what happens.

Have a look at tools > options under the 'openoffice.org : paths'
section. There is a path set for 'templates' which if you change to
something that is writable by the user should be okay.

I would have thought however that is a network installation was done
there would be user paths set to allow these types of actions...

OO 1.1.3 installed from RPMs on a RHFC3 box.

I want to add a new template and know how to do it, but OO complains
that "Error copying template "file://newtemplate.stw". A template with
this name may already exist."

I suspect that this is a permissions problem with a template directory
somewhere. I'm running OO as a regular user (not root), and I think it's
trying to put the new template in the global template directory. Is
there a means of creating a local template directory in which I can
store my private templates?

Thanks!
