I've spent the past several hour pouring over everything I can find on templates and can't figure them out.

I've created a default template that is based on Modern Library Association (MLA) standards.

I've created a second template that varies from that style slightly called Comic Double Space.

I want to use both in the same document.

I have set the MLA template as default.

Now, once I have my text entered, how in blue blazes do I change to the second template (Comic Double Space) I made?

Both templates show up when I do "new file" "template". At first I thought it would show up under "styles and formatting". Nope.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks for your help.

Try inserting a section break when you wish to change styles. Otherwise the style will apply to the whole document.

Joe, does that really apply to using different templates? I thought it was one document, one template. If that's true, a section break wouldn't help, right? That lets you change page styles, but does it affect anything else?

Mark, if my interpretation is right, I think that what you need are different styles in the same template -- page, paragraph, character, or all of the above. Alternatively, if what you're trying to do is produce the same document two different ways, you'll need to make your first document, then create a new document using the other template and use copy and paste to get the material into the second one. If the style names are the same, but the fonts or whatever are different between the templates, I think they'll be reinterpreted as you want them.
