It can be done.
Change the default template
What is a default template?
Each time you create a new document, Works bases it on the default template Normal.wpt. You can change the default template so that each new document uses the styles, text, or other settings you prefer. 1 Open the template (documents that contain pre-designed formatting, layout, and some text) that you want to specify as the default template (the boilerplate document used whenever you start a new document).
How?
1 On the File menu, click Open.
2 In the Look in box, select the Template folder.
3 In the Files of type box, select Document Templates (*.wpt).
4 In the folder list, double-click the template you want to use as the default template.
2 On the File menu, click Save As.
3 Click Template.
The Save As Template dialog box appears.
4 In the Template named edit box, type a name for the template below.
For example, type MyTemplate.
5 Select the Use this template for new Word Processor documents check box.
6 Click OK.
Works will now use this template whenever you start a new document.
Note If you decide not to change the default template, click Save As Template on the File menu, and then click Defaults to use the default template Normal.wpt
