Does Word 2007 have templates?

[Tom Hunter]

The Word 2007 app is a bit difficult to follow, compared to earlier versions.
Does anyone know how I can find the kinds of templates that used to come
with Word, but in this 2007 version? I cannot find ANY temples, whereas I
used to be able to choose from contemprary fax, etc etc etc.

Click on the Office logo, "New" and chose the document you want to create.
Office 2007 does not have wizards and they are not available from MS. You may
copy the entire template directory from a 2003 installation to a 2007 install
and all the templates and wizards will work in the same manner.

Sure! There are around 2,000 templates for Word available and that doesn't
include those other users have elected to share with others.

Click the round Microsoft Office Button in the upper left corner and then
click New. There you will find build-in templates in "Installed Templates"
and you can access those templates available online under the "Microsoft
Office Online" section. If you are looking for something specific you can
use the Search box at the top of the dialog box.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
