A conversation with another user prompted this question:

When I upgrade my OOo by installing the latest version, how come I get to keep my Templates?

I am using OOo under Windows XP and after installing the latest version of OOo, if I right click on the icon near the clock and select "From Template", all the usual items come up on the list: invoice template; letterhead; purchase order form; quote template; etc.

On the other hand, upgrading always loses my Australian Dictionary and I need to copy the relevant ".au" files from my previous version.

I have determined that the Template files are kept in a folder called
... application data/OpenOffice.org?/user/templates
where the "?" represents, in my case:

1.1
1.1.0
1.1.4
2

The folder: ...application data/OpenOffice.org2/user/templates, seems to contain all the templates I use, but some of them were created in earlier versions of OOo. Also, some of the previous versions have templates in thier ... user/template folders too.

I look forward to yoru advice - many thanks, James
