Hyperlinks opens a template itself rather than doc based on templa

[F Laufs]

Hi,

I set up a hyperlink in a procedure document to a relevant standard
template. When accessing the template from a hyperlink I found that the dot
file itself opened rather than opening a new document.

Might there a setting that means the hyperlink 'knows' not to open the
template but to open a new document?

No. By their nature, hyperlinks open the file to which they refer. You'd need
to embed the hyperlink in a Macrobutton field, then use a macro to change
what's happening.

Thanks for your help Cindy. I'll have a look at doing it that way.
