Very poor advice. You cannot create Normal.dot; only Word can do that.
Moreover, we never advice users to delete Normal.dot (which destroys all
customizations) but only to rename it.

Moreover, a letterhead scanned as a graphic will not be usable as a template
without further work.

Hi
Try this:
make the template, do a Save As but choose a .dot option from the file
types, save it as header.dot file, this will open a place where templates
are
saved somewhere in the bowels of application data.
Go into the template folder (remember where it was?) and delete the
normal.dot file and rename yours normal.dot.
(You cannot delete the normal.dot file if it is being used.)
When you open word it should use this template.
Repeat on your other computers.
You can recover the original normal.dot by deleting yours, Word will
create
another the next time you open the program.


I'm sure there is a really neat way of jiggering this but I'm buggered if
I
know how.

letters?
