G Graham Mayor Jan 16, 2006 #2 Do you want to open the template to edit it, or do you want to create a new document from it? If the former create a macro containing the line Documents.Open FileName:="C:\Path\filename.dot" where "C:\Path\filename.dot" is the full path to your template. If the latter create a macro containing the line Documents.Add Template:="Normal" where "Normal" is the name of your template In either case assign a keyboard shortcut to the macro http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<>
