I created a form as a template, now I can't "save as" a Document

[Guest]

Hi, I've got two problems. I used a template from this website to create a
form, but now when I go to do a "save as" document, it's shaded out and will
*only* let me save as another template.

Also, I want users to be able to paste a chemical structure graphic from the
clipboard into one of my form cells, and it won't let us do this unless the
form is unlocked. Any way around this?

Templates may not be saved as documents - the idea is you create new
documents from a template and save the new documents.

What you have downloaded is a template and should be saved in your User
Templates folder (see Tools | Options | File Locations for the correct
path); then use File | New to access the template and create a new document
based on it. You should not be opening the template itself and trying to
save it as a document.
