(example: xx.htm) file. Opend file should be .doc and not .dot file. I
have made link to file.

Please help me!

Thanks all!

I don't believe this is possible. You need to instruct users, when they get
the prompt, to choose Save rather than Open. After the .dot file has been
saved to the HD, then double-clicking on it will create a document based on
the template.
