Hi all,
I'm struggling to create a Macro for Word that can open a template from my file explorer then prompt a save as box to save in a new location. |

If your “template” is genuinely a template, i.e. has a .dotx or .dotm file extension, then you don’t open it, you create a new document using Documents.Add method (Word) | Microsoft Learn, and save it using Document.SaveAs2 method (Word) | Microsoft Learn

It doesn't really matter whether the document is an actual template or a document, you still can, and should, create a new document from it, using the method described in the previous post.
