I want to change a template i've downloaded but it will not let me, I can't
even get my cursor on typing mode.

It is probably what Word calls an "online form." You would have to unprotect
or unlock it. Chances are that the original author may have set a password
for this.

Check this in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles.

Hope this helps,
