A. You need OpenOffice.org installed to use the supplied templates (visit http://www.openoffice.org to download it). Once you’ve done this, go to the Preferences->Configure File Types screen and hit the rescan button on right of the toolbar. If you have Microsoft Office 97, 2000 or 2003 and would prefer to use that, select “Rich Text Compatible” as your word processor under System->Options and go to Preferences->Configure File Types and verify that the path to winword.exe is set against the rtf entry (ASM should do this automatically when it is first run if Microsoft Office is available). You can also use Microsoft Office 2007 natively and templates are supplied.
