We are implementing some new letterheads in our department and I need to
provide staff with a template with approriate margins set up and a background
image of the letterhead displayed but not printed.. it works fine on my
computer, but how do I attach the image to teh template for other users when
I distribute it?

It will print, or not, depending on the user's settings to print drawings.

You might want to take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other
document where you want one header on the first page and a different header
on other pages. http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives
step-by-step instructions. (It also has the following links)

Some other pages to look at:

http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm

Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial
http://addbalance.com/word/download....StylesTutorial
(for simulating different margins on different pages, among other things)

I understand how to make it print or not print, my only problem is that if I
"filesave astemplate" the document when it is loaded on another computer if
sets the margins properly but not the backgorund image.. I need a way to
attach the image in the template file if possible. If it comes to it our
staff isnt that big (20-30) and I could set it up on each computer
seperately, but thsi seems the least acceptable option.. perhaps a globally
shared template on the network could be implemented, if so is it possible to
direct a template to a specific file stored loaclly for the background? In
that way I could still have the basketball coaches letterhead and the
football coaches letterhead display on each users computer yet use the single
template file
