    Importing template files from Office 2003 to Office 2010


    Having upgraded my desktop PC to Office 2010, I need to import three seperate letter template files for use in Word. These were lost during the upgrade but are on my laptop, which still runs Office 2003, as .dot type files and I also have them copied to a memory stick. However, I am at a loss as to how and where to save them into the new programme on my desktop PC. If it makes a difference, I should add that I do not use Libraries and have disabled them.
    Can anyone advise please?

    Problem solved - with a bit of advice from a friend! Unsurprisingly, it's very simple.

    - Open the document in Word
    - Click "Save As"
    - Scroll to top of folder list and, under "Microsoft Word", click "Templates"
    - Name the template and select "Word Template" in the "Save As Type" list
    - Save it

    I still don't know where they are saved to but I can now call them up and use them.

    Cheers
