Templates Misbehaving problem

A

Android

I'm creating a document on a shared drive from which
anyone can launch Word and Excel templates (which I have
linked to the document).

The problem is:
For Excel or Word, when launched from my document, these
templates don't behave like templates. If you edit and
save the document, it will be re-saved over the template,
as an edited template -- which of course defeats the
whole purpose.

Adding password does hot help bevause the user is prompted
to save with the same filename in the same folder.


Has anyone come acroos this and knows of a solution.
Sounds like a serious bug to me (I hope I'm wrong).

My apology for posting in the wrong group...

I am actually inserting these in a Word 2000 document. I'm
using hyperlink.

Since I posted it, I found a MS support info at:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;278627

However this does not work.

I will repost in the Wordgroup. If you have a solution for
Word, please let me know there.
