I think a useful tutorial would start with a basic example, like I wrote (just use a word doc, and throw in the fields, explain how the file name cannot be dynamic), then it could go to level 2 of complexity (templates - where the file name could be dynamic, maybe there's not much difference using them).

It is extremely difficult to write a clear set of instructions on which buttons to click on. Microsoft keeps moving them around and changing their names. It is better to deal in concepts and the controls that implement those concepts.
I have been using Word extensively since 1990. Word has changed dramatically since then. Take a look at my page on the Ribbons of Word to see the changes that have happened just in the Ribbon interface since Word 2007.
The pages I referenced were written by me. I'm sorry that they are as complex as they are. I am a criminal defense lawyer and these started from my trying to understand a basic tool that I had to use. I wrote down my understandings and shared them. I do not work for Microsoft.
