Default Creating/Saving Templates

If you create your workbook and save as a real Template(*.XLT) only a copy
of that Template is opened with a name like Quotation1

When you hit the Save button, user will be required to enter a name for
saving or accept the default Quotation1.

The Template is never overwritten.

I've created a Quotation Template for my company and would like to save it as
a template so that when someone uses the document and fills it out it prompts
them to "Save As" rather than "Save". This way the original blank document
is preserved. However, when I save it as a Template it doesn't prevent
another user from saving over it. Does anyone know how I can lock the "Save"
function? So that only the "Save As" is available?
