# Saving MenuBuilder projects as templates

You can save an existing MenuBuilder project as a template for use on further projects. MenuBuilder templates use the .mgt file extension.

To save a project as a template:

1. Open the MenuBuilder project to save as a template.

2. From the File menu, select Save as Template.

The Save As dialog box appears.

3. In the File name text box, enter a name for the template.

You can save the template to any location. However, the MenuBuilder wizard displays only templates stored in the specified Templates directory. You can change this directory if you want.

4. Click Save.
