Hi Susan, Sorry you've invested so much time without success.
The following instructions worked for me... 1. the web page with links to the instructions OpenOffice.org 3.3 User Guides (ODT) - Apache OpenOffice Wiki <https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/OOo3.3_Chapters_ODT> 2. The chapter with template usage info found in the "Getting Started Guide" section of the webpage above. The link will download an .odt file that opens in Writer Ch3 - Using Styles and Templates <https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/OOo3.3_Chapters_ODT> 4. Refer to the section "Importing a template" on page 22. The template must be imported before it can be used in the next step. Note: you must know where the template file has been downloaded to so it can be picked for import 5. Refer to "Using a template to create a document" on page 14. Once a template is imported this is the only step that needs to be repeated to create a document with a given template.
