I'm using Word 2003. I would like to save my margins and some basic text as
a part of a Word template. When I save the doc as a template, the styles are
saved just fine. However, any text I had in the doc does not become part of
the template. In addition, I find that margins in a new doc always show up
as the Word defaults. What am I missing?

How are you using the template? The idea is that you create new documents
from a template. It sounds as though you are attaching the template to
existing documents. That isn't going to work!
