Create a Template

More of a good thing

After putting together the ultimate proposal, or dunning notice, you can save the document as a template so that you don't have to re-invent the whole thing.

Here's how to do it in Word 2007-13.
(Earlier versions also use "Save As")

1. Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Open.
   
   
2. Open the document that you want.
   Make the changes that you want to appear in all new documents that you base on the template.
   
   
3. Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Save As.
   
   
4. In the Save As dialog box, click Templates if your computer is running Windows or Vista, or click Trusted Templates if your computer is running Windows XP.
   
   
5. Give the new template a file name, select Word Template in the Save As type list, and then click Save.

Note You can also save the template as a Word Macro-Enabled Template (.dotm file) or a Word 97-2003 Template (.dot file).
