I don't understand a thing what you are saying What document? What template? What? How? Why?

Cameron, you need to specify what type of document you're hoping to convert into a template. It sounds like you're hoping to make a Microsoft Word document into a template (Since a Word template uses the '.dot' file extention).

If that is the case, here is some information I found while searching Google:

Template Creation the Easy Way
Although it is generally a good idea to save any document you wish to use as a template with the .dot extension, a quick way to make a document a template is simply to save it in the Templates folder. By default, any document saved in this folder functions like a template.

1. Create a document you wish to use as a template
2. Click Save or use the Ctrl + S shortcut key
3. In the Save dialog box, navigate to the templates folder (the path is generally C:\Documents and settings\user name\Application data\Microsoft\Templates)
4. Click Save

To create documents based on this template, select New from the File menu. In the New Document task pane, click on General Templates… You should see your document under the General tab. Highlight it and then click OK. You can also open the template from the Program menu in Windows. Simply click New Office Document. You will be presented with the Templates dialog box, from which you can select your document on the General tab.

One of the benefits of creating a template using the preceding steps is that you can easily make changes to the template. Opening the document from Windows or by using the Open command in Word will open it as a regular document, allowing you to make changes that will then be reflected in the template.

Additionally, here is a step-by-step method to creating regular '.dot' files (which are Microsoft Word template files): http://wordprocessing.about.com/od/usingte...blwordtemp2.htm

It's odd, bennett, that every one of your posts made since you joined (All three of them) contain a link back to that same website. Like the first two, I am removing the hyperlink and leaving the text, just in case somebody finds it useful.

Since all you can contribute is a link to what might be your site, I'd rather not allow you the benefit of receiving link-backs from us here at WebRadiance.

Contribute a bit more, on topics that don't elicit a link to your site, and we will mind that hyperlink less and less.
