Insert a file as part of a macro

[kharrison]

I have created a macro where I am inserting an existing file (a template)
into a new documet. The problem is the headers and footers on the existing
file are not inserting into the new document. How do I make this occur.

Or how do I create a macro where the a .doc is created from the template.

Any help much appreciated.

You would have more chance if you created a new document from the template
and then inserted the document into that.

Something like

Dim Source as Document, Target as Document, doctext as Range

Set Source = ActiveDocument 'The document containing the text
Set Target = Documents.Add("[path\template]")
Set doctext = Source.Range
doctext.End=doctext.End - 1
Target.Range.FormattedText=doctext.FormattedText

Hope this helps.
