A couple of things come to mind, keeping in mind I don't have O2K3 to test with.

1) Does your doc variable point to the new document based on the template?
2) The line Set rng = doc.Bookmarks.Item("AdditionalInformationTable")
should actually be:
Set rng = doc.Bookmarks.Item("AdditionalInformationTable").RANGE
3) Is the document/template protected in way? (Tools|Protect Document...)
4) Try opening the rtf file in Word and then save it as a Word
document. It may not like inserting RTF.

The first 2 is my best guess as to why it's not working. The other 2
are just WAGs.
