    I am using Solidworks 2005 and the drawing templates have disappeared. Does
    anyone know what did I do to cause this and how do I get them back?

    When you say they dissappeared what do you mean exactly?

  3. Is it your company's customized templates that disappeared. Most likely you
    forgot to back them up before you upgraded to 2005. I believe that SW loads
    all new templates into the default location, eliminating your templates. Or
    someone may have remembered to copy them to another location but forgot to
    move them back.

    Another possibility is that the location for the templates got moved. Check
    in Tools/Options/System Options/File Locations/Document Templates. I believe
    the default location is C:\Program Files\SolidWorks\data\templates.
