I have created a custom menu for my company's templates following the instructions in this article: http://technet2.microsoft.com/Office/en-us/library/1f04f451-8537-4434-8789-ad54dca7652b1033.mspx?mfr=true I would however like subcategories for each category - like for instance the Calendar category in Word's default templates list. I don't know xml well enough to see if this could be done in the reference xml file (the one with the templates location). Creating several levels of keys in the registry didn't seem to help, but I could have missed something. The structure could look like this: <Company name> (main category, in left pane) <Letters> (subcategory - click to open list of templates) <template> <template> <template> <Faxes> <template> <template> <Legal> <template> <template> ... Any suggestions? Valgerd
