Thank you for responding!

It might matter here that I'm on Windows Vista. The only checkboxes I find are "Read only" in the Open dialog (I normally that template from a link on the desktop) and "Auto extension" and "Password" in the Save-as dialog. "Auto extension is checked and, when I uncheck it and save-as again, stays re-checked. For simple Save, no dialog comes up, it just saves. My OOo behaves the same - I just tried it - with templates fresh from http://templates.services.openoffice.org/de.

Hi,

I have a problem with a template I made. It used to save as a document
and remembered the path for it. Now I have to save-as and complete the
path, otherwise saving will change the template.

Once upon a time I saw settings for things like default paths, where I
might might find the solution for my problem, but I don't find them
anymore.

Help!

Klaus

Watch the Open and Save dialogs: There are check boxes for "document" or "template", meaning open it as a document or a template. Sounds like template got checked on you.

HTH,

Hallo,
have you tried to mark the template as "read-only" (using Vista file properties, not OOo) ? This way, after opening the template you have to click the "edit file" toolbar button before you can write anything, thus creating a new file which won't be saved over the original template.

HTH


That sounds like a good idea, but the edit button doesn't change the filename. However, after playing around with downloaded templates, which involved opening and closing OOo a few times, my particular template does open as "unnamed".

The default location was now one node above the template location, so I changed the path to the appropriate folder below it. Until I see how this affects other documents, I'm quite content.

Mille grazie!

Klaus
