Default How do you use a template?


--
For more on the different kinds of templates, tabs on the file new dialog,
and locations of templates folders see
http://addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm.

However, you may be asking about what Word calls an "online form." Check
this in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...nesInForms.htm.

You might want to use macrobutton fields instead. See
http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide...tm#MacroButton,
http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm and
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/TblsFl...acroButton.htm for more
about macrobutton fields.

Hope this helps,

Nothing I've seen starts at the begining and moves forward!

Simple! How do you use a template?

File Projects My Templates?

THEN WHAT?

Are there ANY fields, or do I just type stuff on?

If I need additional sets of things, what do I do? Just type them in, or
copy and paste the template lines?

How should I replace the template text? Search and replace? Highlight and
Type? Type and delete?

How how how!
