Default Template behaving like .xls file

I created a spreadsheet with SQL queries and macros for use by our sales
agents. I don't want them to overwrite it accidentally, so I saved it and
deployed it as an .xlt. However, on the two laptops to which I've deployed
it, it behaves like a normal .xls file, while on my machine it behaves as I
would expect...like an .xlt file. What I mean is this:

The file is called "Experience Rating - .xlt". When *I* open it, its new
name displays in the title bar: "Microsoft Excel - Experience Rating - 1".
But when it's opened on the computers in question, it shows: "Microsoft
Excel - Experience Rating - .xlt". I tried doing a "save" instead of a
"save as..." to see if excel would prevent me from overwriting it, but it
allowed the overwrite. I thought that wasn't supposed to be possible if
it's saved as a template.

If it makes a difference, I actually didn't save it as an .xlt...I renamed
it from .xls to .xlt. Should that matter?

Thanks,

Bryan
