Can I preset the format for a multi-sectioned document?

I want to pre-format a book proposal to include a cover page, Table of
Contents, Overview, Three Chapters etc. Can I set up these pages prior to
actually setting in the text?

Yes. This is called a template. See: How to Create a Template, Part II
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Customization/CreateATemplatePart2.htm and

For more on the different kinds of templates, tabs on the file new dialog,
and locations of templates folders see
