button Creating and customizing templates using Microsoft Office Templates on your computer.
  • Click "File" then "New" and choose a Template from one of the tabbed sections. (Memo and Fax templates are two that teachers like to personalize.)
  • Customize the template for your needs and then Save. Rename it with a personalized name ... for example "Vickimemo" is the name of my memo template that has my information in it.
  • Save as a Document Template by clicking the down-pointing arrow in the "Save As Type" box and clicking document template (.dot file extension)
  • When you do this, the computer will automatically open the Office Template folder on your computer and save it in that area. From now on, when you click "File" then "New" your personalized template will appear in the list for you to choose from.

  • Find the name of the file in "My Documents" or wherever you have saved it and right-click on it... then left click on "Properties.

  • Go to the bottom of the next window and click to put a checkmark in front of "Read Only" and click "OK"

Remember... the best way to download any of the files on these pages is to right click on the link, then choose "Save Target As." Now decide where on your computer you want to save the file, and then click "Save." AFTER you have saved it to your computer, then double click to open the file. You must have the program that the file is made in to be able to open it. For example, if it is the Publisher file, you must have Publisher on your computer.
button Kim Hunt from Frisco, Texas has a fabulous webpage full of MS Publisher templates that can be used for all kinds of projects... creative writing stories, reports, greeting cards and much much more. The four and eight page booklets are perfect to use in the classroom. Check them out!!
