Default Template Not showing when for New form creation

I set up a new template which has a couple of macros in it that I would like
to base some new forms on. I saved the new template to
c:\documents and settings\kkrug\Application
Data\Microsoft\Templates\320648.dot,
but it isn't showing up as a choice when I do file new from template. We
are running Windows XP and have Word 2000. Any idea what I might be doing
wrong. Eventually I would like to use the new template on other pc's.

Thanks for the help!

That's probably because it isn't the correct template folder. Only templates
in the designated template folder will show up. Go to Tools, Options, File
Locations tab and find out the appropriate location for templates on your
computer. Then move the template to that folder using Explorer.
