That's probably the best you can do without editing your template 
further yourself - in particular its contained macro(s).

There is - at least, potentially - a New Document From Template 
button in the Standard toolbar. If you don't see it, click the 
down-arrow at the right end of this toolbar and select Visible 
Buttons > | New Document From Template. It should stick.

Alternative ways to get at a template are:
o File | New > | Templates and Documents (as you mention)
o Down-arrow next to the New button in the Standard toolbar | 
Templates and Documents
o Templates... from the start screen
o Set your template as the default and then just open a new text document
o (If you are using Windows) Right-click the Quickstarter icon in the 
System Tray | From Template...

No: your template is not a macro, though it apparently contains macros.

Attached files are generally not distributed by the list processor, 
so no-one except the two explicit addressees of your message will 
have seen this.

I trust this helps.
