I hava a suggestion for the templates page microsoft offers
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT011389701033)

When watching de fields in the document, the title etc are macro buttons,
why not use fields like { DOCPROPERTY Title \* MERGEFORMAT }, which can be
inserted into the document properties & Insert Field.

This demonstrates the use of fields in documents and would resolve an other
post here which mentions 'updating fields', just insert propertie fields like
{ DOCPROPERTY LastPrinted }.
When that's not enough, custom fields can be used.

Second, there is said 'this should be at a new page' why not create a
heading which automaticly starts at a new page?

So my question, when neath tricks are at hand, why not use them in the
templates that are offered in the microsoft office templates section!?

Most of the templates in the Office Template Gallery (and those that ship
with Word) are designed for Word users with no skill at all and no tolerance
for or capability to use Word's better features. Skilled users have for
years deplored the design of these templates, which include "headers" in
text boxes anchored to the document body, manually created TOCs, etc.

Unfortunately, a user who wants to do anything beyond just type replacement
text into such a template becomes terminally confused. Newsletters created
exclusively with text boxes (so text can't be wrapped around graphics and
users can't figure out how to add extra pages or delete excess ones),
letterhead with graphic elements they can't figure out how to delete, etc.,
are so frustrating for many users that we see students here claiming that
their instructors have proscribed the use of "templates"--as if it were
possible to create a Word document without using a "template"!
