You frequently use WordPad to type documents in same format (same font, same heading, same paragraph style, and so on). To save time for those formatting jobs, you need to create a WordPad template. Here's how:
Open WordPad and make all the formatting changes you'd like, such as change the font and design your company heading. Save the file using a name "template.tpl".
Open Explorer and select View (Win9x) or Tools (WinMe), Folder Options. On the File Types tab, click the New Type button. Next to Description Of Type, type "WordPad Template". Next to Associated Extension, type “tpl”. All without the quotes.
Click New, and in the Action box of the New Action dialog box, type “Open”. Under Application Used To Perform Action, type your WordPad's path, C:\Program Files\Accessories\Wordpad.exe
Click OK three times to close all open dialog boxes.
Now double-click template.tpl and it opens in WordPad, complete with all your formatting. Make sure to save it under a new name before creating a new document from the template.
