Hello,

could anyone help with the installation of +Tools in MS Word 2007 (Windows)?

The "Tools/Templates Add-in" menu referred to in the installation instructions does not appear in Word 2007 any longer.

And for any reason I have an error message when I try to save the template in the MS Word template folder (access not authorised, please consult your administrator... while I am the administrator!)

Many thanks in advance

Add-Inns in Word 2007 May 29, 2010

Hi Aude,

Some things are more complicated in Word 2007 but this is how I did it.

Unzip ptools.zip in the folder C:\Users\Aude\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.

Click on the Office button, then click on Word Options. Click on Popular in the left pane, enable the option Show Developer tab in the Ribbon and click on OK.

Open the Developer tab and click on Document Template. Enable PlusTools.dot on the Templates tab each time you need it.

... I don't know why your answer 'jumped' to that thread while you were replying to this one I think: http://www.proz.com/forum/office_applications/188416-ms_word_applying_a_watermark_only_on_some_pages_of_a_document_[resolved].html

Many thanks - I also found a MS Word KB article in the interim: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/brand-a-document-with-a-watermark-or-background-HA010097032.aspx?CTT=5&origin=HA010244694#BM4

Have a nice day!
