I need to draft legal documents and word 2007 has no templates as I gather and I don't have access to word 2003 so as to create that wizard, etc...what to do pls?

OR, how do I 'force' pleadings format and then just keep them for the future, pls?

If you have access to a Word 2003 installation that has the Leading Pleading
wizard installed, take a copy of the Pleading Wizard.wiz and the
PLEADSUB.WIZ and copy both files to the Word 2007 user template folder.
Rename *only* the Pleading Wizard.wiz to Pleading Wizard.dot.

Create a new document from that latter template the Wizard appears to work
in 2007 pretty much as it did in 2003. It will even create a sub folder from
the Word 2007 user template folder called Legal Pleadings to contain the
templates the wizard creates. The commands from floating toolbar the Wizard
adds are available from the Add-ins ribbon tab.

Just getting back into the law and my new Word (2007) does not have a pleading
paper wizard or an easy way to auto-format pleadings. People must have
solved this ...

No, Word 2007 does not have any wizards, but I am told that the existing ones
from earlier versions will function at least as templates, even if the
UserForms do not work correctly.
