Template to desktop

Post by MisterL »

Hi There,

I can't find an answer but is there a way to move a template from the template folder in OpenOffice onto my desktop or to a different location on my laptop?

Regards,

MisterL.

I would open the template by using the menu File -> Templates -> Organize, selecting the template, then selecting Edit from the Command button. You can then use File -> Save As to store it anywhere.

I'd suggest to leave the template in place but to drag it in the Windows-file-Explorer with the RIGHT button of your mouse to the Desktop and then selecting to create a link.

In most cases it is better to have templates at defined places for management, especially if there are derived files - wich will not note changes in the copies.
