How can I lock a template?
Hi Carmela,
Thank you for the question.
Do you mean locking as in password protecting your document. If so, once in your document go to File>Save As, then there is a Tools menu, go down to the security options and there you will see where you can enter your password.
Hope that helps
Tracy

The status bar (the grey area at the bottom of the Word screen) tends to be underutilised as most people are not familiar with what it can be used for. Here are a shortcuts that can be accessed through the status bar:
Double-click the page number or section number on the status bar to open the Find and Replace feature.
Double-click REC to stop recording a macro.
Double-click TRK to turn Track Changes on or off.
Double-click EXT to turn extension mode on or off when selecting text.
Double-click OVR to turn off Overtype mode. Overtype is where you type and the text in front of your cursor gets replaced by the text you are currently typing, one character at a time. This usually gets turned on accidently when the Insert key is inadvertently pressed.
Double-click Language to change the Language format to something different.
Double-click the Spelling and Grammar Status icon to begin fixing spelling or grammatical errors.
