Good, I assume here that you see the file right under the "Local Templates" 
folder.

You do nothing wrong, I guess. The concept of templates in Quanta is a bit 
difficult because you have different types of templates, which behave 
differently regarding clicking on it. 
Please make a _right_ click on  "Local Templates" and choose properties. Then 
switch to the "Quanta Template" page. There is a drop down box to select 
which type of templates you have in this folder. Most likely the "inherent 
parent attribute" is ticked so that you can not select your template type. 
You may want to untick this and choose "Document Template". After OK you 
should be able to create new documents from your template by clicking on 
them.

Please read also the handbook to learn more about templates in Quanta.
