word 2003 template has been written over. How?
Is there a way of stopping templates from appearing in this list so people
don't accidentally write over general templates? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: When you "open" a template as he is doing, you open it for editing, just like a document. -- Suzanne S.

I have investigated further and found out how he has opened the template and saved over it. He opens word, then clicks recent documents on the right hand side within the "getting started" task pane. As he had recently opened teh template it is listed there. Oddly when you click on it there it is the .dot that opens and any saved cahnges are made to the .dot, it is not a new document that opens. Is this correct or is there a set up error somewhere? "confused template" wrote: Hi, I have created a template in word 2003 (yes, it is correctly saved as a .dot file) for general use on a network. Twice now people have opend the template, written what they want to write then saved, only to find they have saved over the original template. What is there is still a template with the same name. I just can't figure out how this is happening. Whenever I open it, I get a new word doc opening. Any suggestions on what might be going wrong? |
