Default Master template

I want to have a template, which will automatically fill up my header and
footer (logo, page number and confidential information) when i insert it into
my document. Can anyone tell me if it is possible? if so how?

That's the whole idea of a template. Put the logo, PAGE field, and
confidential information in the header of a document and save it as a
template.

Hi ?B?TGF2YW55YQ==?=,

I want to have a template, which will automatically fill up my header and
footer (logo, page number and confidential information) when i insert it into
my document. Can anyone tell me if it is possible? if so how?

Templates in Word work a bit differently: you create a new document from them.
Once the document is created, a template doesn't automatically insert any more
content into a document.

Try setting up a document with those items you list above. In File/Save As, save
it as the file type Word template (*.dot). This should put it in your templates
folder.

Now choose to create a new document, using templates on your computer (the exact
steps depend on the version of Word you're using). You should find your new
template listed. Select it, and the new document will be pre-populated with the
headers and footers :-)

Hi Cindy,

If i do as you have suggested, only styles get saved not the content. My
logo do not appear on my new document by default. I use Word 2003. Any
suggestions to get the logo when i insert the template?

If the logo is in the template, it should also be in every document created
based on the template.
