The template's VBA modules contains the code to read the information in the Outlook calendar and populate the Word document with that information. The code should run automatically when a new document is created from the template. If the code in the template is not running automatically, then, as I mentioned earlier, your Word macro security settings may need to be readjusted. (Tools | Macro | Security). You should also be able to run the code manually through the Word VBA environment (Alt-F11). Look for an AutoOpen or AutoNew procedure.
I think that it shouldn't have been this complicated to get complete
instructions on running my calendar and this template.
Be practical: No one here has memorized the operation of the hundreds of Outlook add-ins, templates, and custom forms that are available.

I have finally succeeded in opening a blank calendar page on the Word
template, but AGAIN, how do I pull existing information from my Outlook
calendar into this template so that I can format, save and print it with the
events/appointments in place each month? I keep reading about "pushing" the
information from Outlook into this template, but how?
I am not familiar with the workings of VBA but can probably learn it from
within the program. Is that the preferred method of working with this
template?
And I gather that I must run multiple macros when working with My Outlook
Calendar template?
I think that it shouldn't have been this complicated to get complete
instructions on running my calendar and this template.
Thank you very much for your help.

After reading numerous posts in the online help sites available, I learned
that Outlook calendars have layout limitations, and I should download My
Outlook Calendar template from the download site in order to achieve
customization.
I did, and now I cannot locate how to pull in my existing calendar
information, all entered in Outlook, so that I can customize the layout in
this Word template. I have only a blank page when I open the template "My
Outlook Calendar."
I have spent much time trying to open, import into, or export from to
achieve this goal.
Have I missed something? Can you please help me?
Thank you.
