It can only be updated by deleting the existing list and running the macro
again. How automatic do you need to make it?
While you could create a macro that ran automatically when the document was
opened, there must be some way of identifying the location of the existing
list so that the macro can delete it and replace it.
One way would be to have the list created inside a one cell table (without
borders if desired)
If that table was the first table in the document, adding the following code
at the beginning of the macro would delete the contents of that table and
replace it with an updated list
ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(1, 1).Select
Selection.Delete
I would recommend that you save this document as a template, and create the
macro in the template and change its name to Sub Autonew()
Then when you create a document from that template, the list will be updated
each time.

Ok,
This worked great. But is there a way to have this list updated
automatically? It is really what we're needing.
Thanks,
Lorne
