Default Word 2007 - Document opens remote template

I have a server at the office with a shared folder for users to save client quotes to.



I have another hidden share on the server with the document templates in, and when you click NEW, you can select "our templates" and open the templates from there.

If a user copies a quote and takes it home, or off site, word tries to open the document template which is un-accessible.

I also have a similar setup at home with the network shared templates folder locally to me at home, allowing me to produce quotes at home. If I then save these quotes over the VPN to my works server share, if anyone tries to open these quotes, word tries to open my home copy of the templates (which works if it's me logged in at the office as the VPN between home and office authenticates my user account at my home share too), but obviously this is not ideal should the VPN be down, my home connection be down etc.

Is there a way around this?
