How do I create separate web pages with a template?

I am new to using Frontpage to build my website. I am using a template I
downloaded. How do I use that same template page to create all of my web
pages? Do I have to duplicate my main index page once it's finished, change
the file name, and change the body text to what I need for each page, or is
there another way I can make separate pages?

If it's a FrontPage template just choose Apply to all pages when you apply
the template.

No. It's a CSS template I downloaded from a template website. I am using
Frontpage as my editor.

If it's a style sheet then all you need to do is put a link to in all your
pages. Ex:

<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css">
</head>

It is a CSS style sheet. Right now I only have one page because I don't know
how to use the same sheet for all my pages. I am using Frontpage 2000 if
that helps. First I need to know how I can use the same template for all of
my pages. I already have a website going (and working on a 2nd one) but I am
trying to transfer my website over into template form. I suppose I need to
make all of my separate pages before I link them? And the link needs to be
the exact same for all pages?

Open a blank page with the style sheet. Save it as something like
template.htm. Add your content to make the page you want.

File > Save As > Name it something else (page_1.htm).

Go back and open template.htm, which should still be blank and do it
all over again. Repeat...

Ok, I am trying to add a link to all my pages, the <link rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" href="mystyle.css"> (I noticed the template has a link
already imposed in the code when I downloaded it), anyway, under the Format
menu the style and style sheet links command aren't highlighted so I can't
use those commands. I am pulling up the stylesheet by going to open web, I
pull up the template folder, open the index.html page that came with the
template. That is also the way I am editing the page for my website. Am I
doing this correctly.
