The purpose of a template is so that the original format can be used over
and over again with individual modifications made to copies of the template.
An example of a template in paper form, is the "While You Were Out" pad of
paper. Each new "document" is created and then filled in.

Anyone know if Word supports making templates that allow a user to input
in some areas while leaving others protected?
TIA,
