I have an excel spreadsheet which generates a word document, currentl
using a file LOA_Template.doc - a read only file then saving as anothe
doc file.

What would be the advantage of using a template file? And how would
make the file save itself as a doc file after the information has bee
added... code follows...

Sub main()
