Thanks again, Carsten!  I tried shifting the files up into .gnucash
and it works!  I wonder why the .scm file was OK in the /report folder
while the .eguile.scm wasn't...  But I'm not worrying about it -- as
long as I can have a working and editable template, as I do now,  I'm
happy! :-)

Thanks David.  That seems not to have been the problem preventing
GnuCash reading the template file, but it is still a problem.  The
trace file now says

* 19:57:01  WARN <gnc.backend.dbi> [gnc_module_init_backend_dbi()] No
DBD drivers found
* 19:57:40  WARN <gnc.app-utils> <unnamed port>: In procedure
primitive-load in expression (primitive-load name):
<unnamed port>: Unbound variable: <!DOCTYPE
In unknown file:
   ?: 0* [primitive-load "/nfshome/me/.gnucash/mycompanyinvoice.eguile.scm"]

I don't know why it's complaining, since the DOCTYPE declaration is
identical to that of the copied file "taxinvoice.eguile.scm".  It
doesn't stop me doing what I want to do, though, so it's not something
I'm worrying about right now.

Thanks all for your help!  It's a huge relief to have this sorted!
