Try using Windows Explorer to go to the folder where you saved the templates,
and double-clicking the icon of one. That will create a new document based on
that template.

Or in Word you can click File New (in Word 2007, click Office button New)
and select "On my computer...", then use the dialog to go to the correct folder
and select the template you want.

Not in the way you think -- that is, attaching the document to a different
template won't change the layout of the document to match the new template.

The best course is usually to create a new blank document based on the
second template, and copy/paste the contents of the old document into the
new one.

Read http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/atta...ate/index.html for a
discussion of what you can do.
