Starting a New Document in Word2003

When I click on the New Document icon in Word 2003 it opens a task pane on
the
right headed Templates.

I then have to click on "Templates/On my computer"
to get to the dialog box where I can choose from all my carefully customised
templates.

Please will someone tell me how can I make clicking the "New Document" icon
cause Word to go directly to that dialog box.

I suppose I could a record a new macro and put it on a new icon but it seems
better to use the original icon to behave as I want it to.

TIA.
Jack Sadie
