• Choose Letter Writer from the drop down list
• From the menu bar select File
• From the drop down list select Modify Template
• In Modify Form, highlight Blank Template and click Open
• Select File from the Menu Bar
• Select Import from drop down list
• Find the file from the *location you saved to earlier, double click on it, select File then save as Template
• Highlight Blank Template
• In template name field type in an appropriate file name and click Save

** Once saved you can access the template with a patient record open in MD **
