When I start a new project, Flare does not recognize the My Templates folder. Complicating things is our setup, where My Documents is on a network share (U:\My Documents). I saved My Templates there, and I copied it to the "normal" My Documents location. Flare does not show any templates at all. Is there a way to set a target for My Templates?
Thanks.

First off, are you sure your templates are set up ok - i.e. everything is stored under the right folder names. Do they work on other PCs?

I had a go at setting my My Documents folder to be a network folder, and Flare did pick up my templates ok.

If you're sure the templates are ok, you could test it to see if it works on your 'default' My Documents folder (C:\Documents and Settings\...).
To do this, right-click the My Documents folder and select Properties, and then on the Target tab click Restore Default. You can choose to copy the files from the network folder.
