Efficiency Computer Tips

Using Templates

  • Templates save time. In a typical day at the office you may create many letters, mailing labels, memos, etc. Do you send letters that have the same content to several people? Do you want professional looking documents but don't have much time to create them? Did you know Microsoft Word has a great feature to make these processes easier? Using the “TEMPLATES AND WIZARD” feature in Word makes your work easier.

  • Templates come in all shapes and sizes. Many kinds of documents are available. You can create legal pleadings, memos, letters, faxes, reports, theses, directories, newsletters, manuals, brochures, calendars, Web pages, time sheets, agendas, résumés, purchase orders, and invoices.

  • You can find these gems on the toolbar. Choose 'File' then 'New'. This opens a dialogue box that has 'Tabs' labeled with the different kinds of documents. Within each tab there is a selection of either a template with a certain style or a Wizard in which you can customize a template. Some have both!

  • Templates are easy to use. You can start with a style already created -- choose from Elegant, Contemporary, or Professional. Double click on the style you want and open the document then fill in your information.

  • Design your own. Perhaps you don't like the pre-made styles, and then the 'Wizard' option may be what you are looking for. To use the Wizards, you double click on the wizard icon for the document you want to use. It will bring up a box that will walk you through the steps and styles available for creating the document of your choice, with your custom information. Once you have finished customizing your document you fill in your information and print! Professional documents without a lot of fuss!

  • Install more options. When you installed Microsoft Word, some wizards and templates were installed through typical setup. You can install more through Custom setup, and some are available in the ValuPack C-Rom or on the Microsoft Website.

To search for available templates or wizards, do one of the following:

  • Run Setup again and select more templates and wizards.

  • If you have the CD-ROM version of Microsoft Office, copy the appropriate wizard or template you want from the ValuPack\Templates folder to the appropriate subfolder of the “templates” folder on your hard drive.

  • If you have access to the web, point to Help in Word and Click on “Microsoft on the Web”, and then click on “Free Stuff”. Follow the instructions on the Web page to download the templates or wizards you want.
