You can create a new part,than insert--> shared date-->from file! you should set up files what you want from template.

First do you need set templates for Start Parts in configuration file (configuration_option and path_to_start_part):

- for solid part:

template_solidpart D:\start_models\start_part.prt

- for sheetmetal part:

template_sheetmetalpart D:\start_models\start_smtpart.prt

- for assembly:

template_designasm D:\start_models\start_asm.asm

... then you can open your data: see video
