Where do applications look for templates?
Applications look for templates in two locations, first in the project folder and then in the global templates folder.
Project templates
Exist in the project directory and apply only to that project. You use project-specific templates either for special projects that have a different overall layout or for particular questions in the questionnaire that require a nonstandard layout. When you activate a project, the activation process copies any project-specific templates that it finds in the project's source directory into the Shared and Master folders in FMRoot.
Global templates
In the main Projects directory, which is usually:
[INSTALL_FOLDER]\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\<version>\Interviewer Server\Projects
for UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer.
If you are building and testing scripts using UNICOM Intelligence Professional, you can set the location of the global templates folder for UNICOM Intelligence Professional using Tools > Options. (Note that this does not affect UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer.) Global templates can be used by any project and will include any templates that your company creates to implement its current standards for interview page design and layout.
