Bart,
If you want to see some info on how this sort of Automation document
manipulation is used with actual production software, grab the
SmartDoc.doc document that's pointed to by the Creating a 'Smart'
Document link on this page:
http://www.agry.purdue.edu/mmp/MmpDocs.htm
This document covers template and field basics. Note that a template
file (.dot) can go anywhere, for example in the same folder as your
app. If you want your users to select your template in Word's File |
New, then it should go somewhere that Word can find it, like under C:
\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\1033. If you're creating a
document programmatically, it doesn't have to go there, though.
Thanks.
-Phil
