Note that a template file (.dot) can go anywhere, for example in the same folder as your app. If you want your users to select your template in Word's File | New, then it should go somewhere that Word can find it, like under C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\1033. If you're creating a document programmatically, it doesn't have to go there, though.</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Thanks.</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">-Phil</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><br></div><div><div><br></div></div></div></body></html>
