Word Tip of the Day
Store disposable templates within easy reach (97/2000/2001/2002)
If you need to use a special document template for a one-time collaboration project, you don't need to install it in Word's template directory in order to use it. Why bother installing it if you're just going to toss it when you've finished your project? Instead, store the template on the Desktop (or in an easy-access folder) while you're using it. To create a new document based on the template, simply double-click on it. When you've finished your project, and you no longer need to work with documents based on the special template, you can easily delete the template from your system without needing to scrounge around for Word's elusive template directory. When you delete the template from your system, the documents you created with it will be unaffected. However, keep in mind that any custom macros, toolbars, and AutoText entries that were stored in the template will no longer be available once you remove it from your system. On that note, make sure you'll no longer need to use these items before you delete the template.
