You may find you get better responses if you include the version of excel you're
using (and the version of windows, too) and the folder location of that
template.

I use xl2003 under winXP home and I saved a testtemplate.xlt into:
C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates

When I hit File|New... (with the ellipsis), I get a New Workbook sidebar.

I can click "On my computer" under the Templates section. Then I use the
General tab of the Templates dialog to see my newly created testtemplate.
