Any suggestions -- other than saving as a 2007 template (not an
option) -- are greatly appreciated...


why isn't this an option? You could save it back to DOT later again (if
need be -- though with Word 2010 out, users need a pretty good
explanation why they're still working on an Office version which cannot
open DOCX/DOTX).
