Word menu item

[Rudy Madsen]

I’ve got a task, where I have to implement a Word template for about 45 people in a department. The template is on a server disc

I would like every single pc to have a menu item that calls a new document based on this template.

How do I implement a menu item that works general from Word. I want it to be easy to implement and modify on every pc.

It could be something with the normal.dot but I would rather not modify this file because every user has his own way to use this file

I hope someone can and will help me out

Happy new year to you all!!!
