In versions Word 2000 and later you need to install the templates when you
install Word. Some are installed in the default installation, others are not. Do a custom modification of your installation to get the others. 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. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup. Please post replies and questions to the newsgroup so that others can learn from my ignorance and your wisdom. "Faust" wrote in message ... Hey... Shauna and Charles. I appreciate the information, and I realise that I didn't really explain very well, but I was kind of wondering something else. In the previous versions of Word (pre-2003... specifically 98, and perhaps others... but 98 is one I am positive of), it came with a set of pre-existing, very general templates... none of these templates you have to download that are things so non-general, it almost hurts. They're stuff like, "a template if you recently were divorced by your wife, and fired from your job for going postal with a .357 Magnum revolver, whereas you became so angry, you shot a German Shepherd and now need to write an apology letter to the owner." I'm not talking about things ithat/i specific... just VERY general templates/wizards. Anywho, help is appreciated (that which you've already offered, and whatever might be offered in the future).

You can get templates from http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...s/default.aspx or you can make your own by following the instructions at Creating a Template - The Basics (Part I) http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Custom...platePart1.htm and Creating a Template (Part II) http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Custom...platePart2.htm Hope this helps.

Now, I don't have a disc to do so, and I can't find any non-specialty templates online. I just want the default ones... stuff like "Professional Letter" and just mere stuff that you would send to friends, etc... I really don't know how to explain it very well, but I hope this was good enough. I appreciate any assistance you might offer. |
