how do I turn off template prompt to update template when saving
If you make a change in the document that will be reflected as a change to
the template there is no way you should attempt to avoid the warning. However there may be a problem - see http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm then next time you quit word and get the prompt agree to it.

how do I turn off template prompt to update template when savi
I have the same problem with template prompts, but in my case it prompts for
saving tamplate even if I NEVER made any changes to to the document. Is there a setting to never prompt for template saving, especially since the orginal template came from a read only network share, in which we don't want people saving changes?

The alternative is not to prompt, which simply makes the change and that is
definitely not a good plan. The problem with prompts can occur when there are orphan temporary files. It can also occur when there is a poorly written add-in loading with Word (Some versions of Acrobat were especially problematical - but there are others). And I do hope you are not trying to share normal.dot? You cannot share the Normal.dot file among multiple users in Word http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=811468 -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org John wrote: I have the same problem with template prompts, but in my case it prompts for saving tamplate even if I NEVER made any changes to to the document.
