SYMPTOMS
When you try to create a new template based on a wizard, you may receive the following error message:

WordBasic ERR = 7, Out of memory

This happens when you choose New from the File menu, select any wizard in the templates list, and choose Template instead of Document.

CAUSE
Wizards contain a large number of AutoText entries, styles, and macros, which Word copies to the new template. These are all stored in memory until Word saves the document.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the products listed at the beginning of this article. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND
After you choose New from the File menu, select Document instead of Template.
