I reinstall my MS office 2010, now everytime i double click my template (xltx), it open the file. unlike before it should create new worksheet using my template. anyone knows how to change the default action on double click. using windows vista

I just solved this one today, using FILETYPESMAN see picture of the changes Excel.jpg

If that template file is marked as read only then you can open the file and add the details and save it as a new file right?

Thanks man, it helps me not to accidentally save my template. though its not what I want. I created a Template with a filename "BOOK-.XLTX" When I D-click on it, it will create a new sheet with a filename BOOK-1.XLTX, and when I D-click on it again it will create BOOK-2.XLTX

Do you know how to change the Double Click function to Excel template?

I really need this badly
