How do I open a "my template for a new file?

[Guest]

As a mac user, Word has a gallery that takes me right to my templates, which,
when selected open a new document based on the template without changing the
template. How do I get the same results in the WINTEL PC environment on
word. Same question for Excel.

In Office 2002 (XP) and 2003, click File | New. This opens a Task Pane at the
right. Ab. 1/2 way down you will see an entry "New form template". Below that
is a list of recently used templates, and "General Templates" - clicking the
latter will take you to your templates folder, which is the equivalent of
Mac's template gallery.

For easy access, you may want to restore the old File>New dialog box;
see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/CustomizingWord2002.htm.
