Most of the expense report templates i see are using infopath. I really
don't want to use an application (yet) that requires users to install (and
learn) a new application.

Can someone instruct me (or send a link) on how to create an excel expense
report template in sharepoint?

I know i can just upload one and the user can "save as" but shouldn't i be
able to specify a template as a default document type in an area? I found
this but i am not sure if its still relavant since it was from 2001:

http://www.microsoft.com/sharepoint/server/techinfo/reskit/document_templates.asp

This is what we are looking to do however...

On a side note - are form libraries ONLY for info path stuff?

Hmmm... well i just specified a new document as the template and this seems
to work.

I am still wondering about the forms library though.
