You html control should look like this:

<a href="ms-word:ofe|u|https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites/yoursite/Shared%20Documents/Templates/YourTemplate.dotm">
    Create New Document from Template
</a>
```

Thanks for that it worked the same way as my link...

i changed the ofe to ofv and its now view only which helps but you can still click edit and so on...

is there a way i can create a link to an onprem network location so it opens a folder?
