Re: forcing Word templates to save as new documents
Unfortunately this isn't working the way its supposed to. I saved the files as a dotx file but instead of forcing a resave, it will overwrite the template file. If I mark the file as read-only, it forces it that way, but just saving it as a template doesn't do it.36KViews0likes4Commentsforcing Word templates to save as new documents
I'm trying to set up a Word template to force users to save their file as a new Word document instead of overwriting the template file, but not having any luck in getting it to work. I've attached a screenshot of what I set up under preferences > save. Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing?37KViews0likes9Commentscreating fields in Word templates
I'm working with Word for Mac and trying to do a couple of things with templates but having issues. First, I want to create an editable text field where the user would click on it and be able to type the content needed. Every technique I tried keeps the placeholder text but I want it to disappear once the user clicks in the field The second issue is when I reopen the dotx file, I want it to force a save as. I thought it was supposed to do that automatically, but it overwrites the existing template file. How do I force the save as function?1.6KViews0likes2Comments
