In Word under Tools, the Options menu is gone.
It dissapears after I add a path to "Workgroup templates" under "File
Locations" in the Options menu.
I'm adding the path via Group Policy or a change in the registry with the
same result.

Can anyone help me with this?

You can add it back through the Customize command. Don't have a clue how you
lost it to start with, though.

Thank you.
No I don't know either why this happends. It only happends on Win2000
mashines not WinXP. All Office versions though.
Now I just need to find out a way to implement the solution automatically on
200 client mashines.
