Important Note Regarding the Shortcut for Microsoft Word while using Microsoft Office 2013

In order for Worldox to launch properly when you use Microsoft Word in Microsoft Office 2013, you must create the following shortcut with a switch (/m) on your desktop.

To create the correct MS Word 2013 shortcut, do one of the following:

1.      Right-click your desktop and select New > Shortcut.

2.      Browse to the location where Office 2013 is installed on your machine and add the switch with a space as /m.

For example,

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\WINWORD.EXE /m

Note: There is a space between WINWORD.EXE and /m.

By creating the shortcut with the /m switch, Worldox and Microsoft Word will perform as expected for all files and operations available in the Worldox document management system.

Note: If you create a shortcut without the /m switch, you will see the following screen each time you use Word with Worldox and you will have to select a template.

It is recommended that you use the /m switch to avoid the extra template selection step.
