templates (Word 2000)

I have a macro that pulls down a template page for a memorandum, adds the “TO”, “FROM”, etc etc, and then when I try to save that pull down page to a document name, the dialog window on save will not allow me to save it any other way than as a document template. Any suggestions? I need to save it as a document, so I can save the template for reuse.

First, make sure your code creates a document from the template.

documents.Add Template:=TemplateName

Then, your FileSave code should default to type: .doc

You can try

activedocument.SaveAs Filename:=”test”,FileFormat:=wdFormatDocument

to force the save as a document, but

activedocument.save

should display the File SaveAs dialog with the type defaulted to .doc.
