Im not really quite sure why you don't just create the controller, associated view...have have the View be tightly bound to the desired model class, in this case your EmpModel class.

If trying to create a template isn't working, just create a new controller called EmployeeController. Then create a new view called Employee by clicking on your views folder and doing right click, add new item (or whatever the option is). Then within your view you would declare the model for the view to be something like @model FileUploadDownloadInMVC.Models.EmpModel.

Then for your controller, it would look something like this

C#

public class EmployeeController : Controller
{

    //passing in ID here as im assuming you've got some sort of unique ID to show records
    public ActionResult Employee(string id)
    {
       var model = new EmpModel();

       return View(model);
    }
}

I think you are stuck on trying to use the built in templating of visual studio. It is probably just as quick to build the model/view/controllers you need manually (maybe not just as quick but whats another 10 seconds).

Given this is pretty basic stuff, I recommend you use google or the following links for more information.
