Open a new word document from a word template with a link in FP 20

Guest

Hi,

I have a number of word document and word templates as part of my site in FP
2003. I would like it so a visitor can click a link and this will open a new
document from the word template.

This is for an internal Intranet so I know everyone looking at my site has
word.

How do I go about acomplishing this?

Regards

Ian

Im not sure if it will work or not, but you could try putting the .dot
template files in a folder (Import them into FP first), then just create
hyperlinks to them.

They are already part of my site, I have got it working to a certain degree
now.

I created shortcuts that pointed to my templates, once the shortcut is
clicked it creates a new document from the template. I have my hyperlinks
pointing to the shortcuts.

The only issue I have now is that you are prompted with a Save, Open or
Cancel boox which I dont want. Once I work around this it will just what im
after

Yah, I thought something like that would happen. They'd have to open it,
then save as a doc on their machine after using it I think.

You can't avoid the dialog for security reasons
- and to prevent the Word docs from opening in IE each of your users (or the system admin) needs to change their registry
