What were you trying to do?

    A user came by SIPB trying to use "templates" in star office.

What's wrong:

    She accessed the "templates" option under the tools or format
    menu, I can't remember which exactly.  She chose the "classic fax"
    template.  This resulted in star office complaining of an error
    while accessing the file 

    /mit/soffice_v6.0/distrib/i386_linux24/share/template/english/officorr/faxclassic.stw


What should have happened:
	
    The user should been introduced to a better document preparation
    system.  But I thought the above bug report might be marginally
    helpful to anyone consigned to the task of maintaining this
    software.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
