where are the templates

I just bought and installed office 2003 pro and downloaded some templates from the web site. Where it it put them? After I downloaded the 1st one it said it was installed, did not say where or how to get it. Also where canI save the templates that I do download so the show up when I do a new document

Thanks in advance

Use File | New to access your templates.

If you are downloading from the MS site, what you are getting is documents.
Use Save As for such a document and save it as a template. Then use File =>
New to create a new document based on it.
