When we release a template document for use we would also like reset the
revision counter (RevNum) to zero.

That property appears to be read-only. Although the VBA command
ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties(wdPropertyRevision) = 1
doesn't receive an error, the value doesn't change.

I think you'll have to use File > Save As to make a "new" copy of the
release version under another name or in another folder, and then rename the
file to the original name.
