using multiple templates in a single document

[malky]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to use multiple templates in a
single document?

Basically I am making 6 differenet templates files but I
want to be able to select which template I use on each
page and also when I add another page to the document I
want to be able to choose which template I apply to it.

If anyone knows how to do this please let me know as it
will be greatly appreciated.

cheers

A single document can be based on only a single template. You can have
different formatting in separate sections.

Also, look into AutoText. You may want to store everything in a single
template's AutoText.

Hi Malky,

What kinds of things would you want to do differently on
the different pages? Different formatting? Then you could
set up sets of styles, all in the one template.

Another approach might be to use an IncludeText field (as
in insert/file with a link) to bring in things from
different documents (or templates). If you use section
breaks you can even keep margins, headers/footers...

It's hard to give you a really good answer without
understanding exactly what you need to accomplish.

Is what the correct URL? You didn't include an
URL in your posting. What do you want to do that
compells you to seek a web page(s) for advice?
