Using templates in word with SharePoint
I have a problem using Word templates With Sharepoint. I have found information that this is not possible.
If i try to open a Word template directly from Sharepoint, it opens the template not a doc#. But if i use the file Explorer in SharePoint and open the template from there it opens as normal doc#. My question is: Is it possible to make a code in etc. notepad that opens the Word template directly from the file Explorer and then save this code in the SharePoint site. If yes, any suggestions about the code? |

You may be looking at the wrong terms in your search for an answer. You do not want to be opening a template (that is what you are complaining Word does) but rather creating a new document based on the template.
Templates in Microsoft Word What, exactly, are you doing to invoke the template that causes it to open? Are you doing this through vba or by double-clicking on an icon, by right-clicking on a name and picking open? |

Hi,
I want to open a New document based on the template. I have the template saved in a SharePoint site, and i try to open it by double-clicking on it. Then it open as a template ( dotx). If i open the file Explorer for the site and double-click on the template it open as a New document based on the template (As i want). So what i want to achieve is to bypass the limitation in SharePoint using templates and get a New document based on the template when double-clicking on the template at the site. |

Not something I've had to try doing yet, but have you considered starting from SharePoint? I believe you should be able to configure the New document command for a library so that it opens a new, blank document based on a specific .dotx template.
