When first opening Word, the default document is set to the 11pt Calibri (Body) font, with a 'Normal' spacing. I wish to have a 12pt, Times New Roman - with 'No Spacing' - document set as my default document.
I already have such a template created, and can call it up by hitting the 'Office Button', and then selecting the 'My Template' choice (which is what I named it). But I was wondering if there was such a way to set it as my 'Default' document template, which would open automatically each time the program was activated.

i think the only way you could do it is a simple shortcut on the desktop

Couldn't see how to do that, but it's all right. It isn't like there were a whole lot of steps to open up that newly saved template of mine. But I do thank you for offering what you did.
