Macro for opening a new Word document from My Templates item

Hello,

I am using Mac Office 2011. I regularly need to create new Word documents, using a customized template I created.

Usually, I have to go to File - New from template. The default choice is 'Print Layout View', I then have to navigate to the item above it - My Templates and then choose the template I created.

Because I do this lot, I am trying to look for a way to automate the process. I know that to open a blank word document, you can use a shortcut: Command + N. But there is no corresponding shortcut for what I describe above. There is a shortcut for 'New from template' (Shift + Command + P), but I still have to use the mouse to navigate to My Templates and choose the specific template.

Is there a way to automate what I describe in the second paragraph? I tried recording a Macro while performing the steps, but it did not come out as what I wanted - instead of opening the cusomized template, it just opened a blank document. The VBE code from that recorded macro is provided below (I tried it twice, and it's the same):

Documents.Add Template:="Normal.dotm", NewTemplate:=False, DocumentType:=0

Anyway can help me with the macro?

Thanks a lot!
