You will need to modify the macro with some more specific code to handle the
graphics. There is no doubt however that it can be done. Here's a
procedure from a project that I created at one time that does that sort of
thing (it too however will need to be modifed for your situation):
Sub UpdateDocs()
myFile = Dir$(PathToUse & "*.doc")
While myFile ""
'Open document
Set myDoc = Documents.Open(PathToUse & myFile)
'Insert logo if the file has been selected

Dont worry with the last message - found I had included two lines of text
in
the module. It does work with text replacements, unfortunately, it won't
work for me as it is not capable of replacing the graphic in the letter
head. Blast, I got so excited about that.

Thanks Doug that does look promising. I followed the instructions
however
and created a global template with that code in it and now, when I go to
the first document in the folder I wish to do the universal substitution
in and select the macro, I just get an error message that says "Compile
error in hidden module: ThisDocument". I have read the help, but it
does
not! Have you any ideas?

The macro in the article "Find & ReplaceAll on a batch of documents in
the
same folder" at:
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/BatchFR.htm
could be modified to do what you want.

I am doing a job where I need to copy a letter header into each of
about
100
letters which are mailmerge template documents for about 20 different
customers - all up about 2000 copy and pastes requiring opening each
document and deleting the current header and pasting the new one. I
have
tried to use IncludeText to do this and having the header in a file,
but
it
appears that the client must open each letter and refresh the link
before
they can get the header in the letter.
Is there a way of doing what I am trying to do without me doing this
mindless copy and paste operation which takes about 1 hour for each
client
and is totally boring and therefore prone to me making mistakes.
Can a simple little program be written that will take a lump of text
out
of
one document and just paste it into a series of documents or just
paste
the
contents of the clipboard into the top of a document?
Any suggestions please.
