I downloaded several templates for Access from the online
Microsoft Download site. Other downloads I have done can
be placed in my Downloaded Programs folder and then
unzipped. When I unzip them, they extract to the right
programs on my hard drive.

When I attempted to download templates, they only open up
into code. I can't get them to Access or open them from
Access. Suggestions?

Thank you.
 
I don't understand the "they only open up into code". What is the file
extension on the templates, is it exe? If so, they are probably
self-extracting archives that you need to double click to extract out the
desired files. They may or may not place them in the desired location. You
may have to tell it where to place the extracted files or extract them into
a temporary location and move them yourself.
