Well, I don't know how it got checked on my setup, but it is. I wouldn't
have considered myself a "developer" or that making a simple template was
"authoring", let alone that merely wanting to *apply* a template came under
such advance use!
(I don't do macros, never having had any success with even modest efforts, &
I don't know what xml means)
MS has some strange ideas.
And/or I'm just strange myself.
But no wonder I do so many things by the "brute force" method -- the
so-called easy way is way too hard to even find! (and "help" doesn't.)
The Really Funny Thing is that until v. 2007 I managed to figure out just
about everything I actually needed to *do* & get it done without tearing out
my hair. V. 2007 has been brilliantly constructed to drive me (& I suspect
not *just* me) nutz.
Thanks again for your help.

The Developer tab is not displayed by default (there's a check box at Word
Options | Popular to display it), and its contents are, by and large,
considered tools not used by casual end users.
