SYMPTOMS

When you save a new file created from a custom template, you will not be prompted with the Properties dialog box, even though the Prompt For File Properties option is selected on the General tab of the Options dialog box.

CAUSE

When you create a new custom template, you will be prompted with the Properties dialog box. However, any new file that you create using that custom template will use the template's properties and will not prompt you with the Properties dialog box.

WORKAROUND

To edit the properties of a workbook, click the Properties command on the File menu.
