This, apparently, is what I needed to know: You click on "page" and "insert" to get a new page in the file you're working in. Then you click on "page" and "import" and navigate to the template you want as the source document. Then you put a 1 in the page number block, and click "import." And there is your template, in the document, with formatting intact, ready to have text and images applied to it.
So how do master pages work into this? -Joe
