    I added the word12.adm template into the GPO editor and now I get the following error:

    Administrative Templates
    An error has occurred while collecting data for Administrative Templates.
    The following errors were encountered:
    The .adm file "\\CIS117AMERDC.AVNET.COM\SysVol\AVNET.COM\Policie s\{98D557C5-5BDD-4AFD-A151-AEE0A2097FFC}\adm\word12.adm" is not in a valid format and must be replaced. Details: A string is expected at line 736.

    Any idea on a solution?

    I downloaded and installed GPMC Sp1 and I no longer see the error.

    Download GPMC SP1 from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=0A6D4C24-8CBD-4B35-9272-DD3CBFC81887&displaylang=en

    This might help others who can't install a new version of GPMC for any reason:
