MessageTed, I'm working on a dell using Microsoft Office. How does the computer differentiate between a document saved in my documents and a template saved in a folder in "New" that would allow it to appear when I press the new button?

What follows refers to Office products, but I'm sure that Corel and IBM-Lotus follow similar conventions. Currently, you'll find individual templates in a Microsoft subfolder under "Application data," but that's doing it the hard way. Just save a new one to the default location, using the Save As menu. When you want to use it, just enter on "New" in the file menu. The list of templates pops up, ready for scrolling.

Thanks, Judith
