Template

[Ram]

Hi,
How can I apply a document template which was stored in a certain location
to any word document. Is it possible to do this using VBA. If yes, How?

 

[Peter]

ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate = <full path to your template>

hth,

Hi,
It's not working. I have created a document template with some text in
the header. So I want to apply this template to any word doc. I did what you
said using VBA. But I didn't see the template getting applied. Is there
something else to do before I run the VBA code.

That isn't how templates work. You need to learn Word before you try
programming it.

I know that template is more of page settings and styles Thanks for the link.
I am inserting the header with a macro. Wondering if it is possible with a
new template.

 

[Charles Kenyon]

Yes, but which header? Every Word document has at least three possible
headers. Every section break adds an additional three possibilities. Your
macro needs to be able to figure this out. Learn Word first.
