I created a template in Word 2000 with headers and footers. Went to an
established document to load the template via Tools; Template and Add-ins. I
added the .dot file and attached it. The styles came accross but the header &
footer did not.

Any explanation? This should work.

Attaching a template never has any affect on page layout, including headers
and footers. To get the page layout from the template you have to create a
new document, then paste the content of your old one into it. (But see
http://www.word.mvps.org/faqs/format...ectionInfo.htm.)

Attaching a template only updates styles if you check that option in the
Templates and Add-ins dialog. If you've done that, I suggest you don't leave
it checked as this can cause unexpected style updating, especially on other
machines.
