Downloading Templates
I've tried repeatedly to download greeting card templates from the Office
Home site. The chosen card displays on screen, I click "Download," a small IE window opens (for a second) and I read "Downloading." I'm not asked which folder to direct the download to, and all I get is a blank document. In the past I've successfully downloaded templates from this site. All of the "controls" are installed and enabled. What am I doing wrong? |

See if emptying your temporary cache makes a difference. In Internet Explorer,
tools, Internet Options, delete files. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "JD" wrote in message ...

Hi Mary,
I tried your suggestion. Still no joy. Any other suggestions? "Mary Sauer" wrote in message ... See if emptying your temporary cache makes a difference.

Downloading Templates
I note that I found the "downloaded" Word document templates in the Temp
folder. They are titled and identified as templates, but alas, blank. 'Tis a mystery. "Mary Sauer" wrote in message ... See if emptying your temporary cache makes a difference.

Templates usually open the program, then you save as.

Well, that has been the procedure here. However, the saved documents are
still empty. I wonder. Is there some setting in Options, some box that's checked or unchecked, that might be making these pictures invisible--even in Print Preview? I'm at a loss.

Downloading Templates
If you don't have "Drawing objects" checked on the Print tab of Tools |
Options, then you won't see wrapped graphics or text boxes in Print Preview. And if you don't have "Drawings" checked on the View tab of Tools | Options, you won't see them in Print Layout view, either (and you will never see them in Normal view). -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne,
You've done me a great service--and not for the first time I might add. I checked the indicated boxes--and there was a beautiful Santa and Christmas Tree displayed in my doc. Thank you very much.

I should have replied earlier, as I suspected that might be the problem, but
(silly me) I couldn't imagine a template being nothing but wrapped graphics! -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "JD" wrote in message ...
