Default Template Management

Hi Folks - What's the most efficient way to edit an existing Word 2003
template? I use one of two methods:

1. In Word, File/New, choose Templates on My Computer option to view all
templates. Then, right-click, then Open. Make changes, then save file
overwriting the existing template. This method requires me to name the
edited template the same name as the old template.

2. Navigate to the folder that contains the template. Right-click on
template, make changes, save. done. This my preferred method, but if you are
not comfortable navigating to the template folder, this technique is
problematic.

I am in the process of creating documentation that describes the process of
editing an existing template. The documentation targets novice users, so I
need the easiest, and least error-prone technique.

Thanks,

Michael
