Word Templates Opening Multiple Times
Sorry, just getting back to this. Thanks for responding guys.
Things are ABSOLUTELY different. Kidd_Ip may have hit the nail on the head regarding network locations. And he's absolutely right with the template not staying attached unless the full path is used, which then causes the read-only message, at least on a network drive. Which is REDICULOUS!
I've not yet tried everything I'm having trouble with working only locally. Which, honestly, should NOT be a requirement and really isn't an option, I don't want to have to continually distribute templates. The Workgroup templates folder (or whatever it's called) in the options should be treated as safe a location as my local drive. IT'S MY INTERNAL NETWORK, DAMMIT, LET ME USE IT!!!
Also, if anyone has insight into the speed at which some macros run I'd appreciate help there to. I have one macro that finishes in 11 seconds in 2010, but takes almost an minute and half in 365. I've not yet tried to Google things to see if there are options in 365 that need turning off when macros run. When I have time to do so I'll post back if I find anything.
Thanks for listening to me wine and thanks again for responding.

I have one macro that finishes in 11 seconds in 2010, but takes almost an minute and half in 365.
As for the timing difference Word 2010 and 365, my guess is that you have something else going on like different Add-Ins. If you start Word in safe mode, what happens to the times for running the macro?

If the difference is really there and that pronounced, I recommend posting the macro in a separate question to get help on it.
