It wouldn't make any difference where the hard drive was. Documents do not
have a life of their own. Word has no ability to load a document at some
pre-determined future date and perform a task. Outlook however can be
programmed to do this. Ask in an Outlook forum if you wish to pursue it

It's currently sitting on a hard drive. Would it make a difference if
it resided on a company network and the individuals are part of the
company?
Thank you for your reply.

It depends what you mean by 'automatic'; exactly what the document
contains; where the information about the 'individuals' is coming
from etc. One thing's for sure, nothing is going to happen if the
document is simply sitting on a hard drive somewhere. This is
probably something much easier to achieve with Outlook which can be
set up to perform dated and repetitive tasks.

I have an MS Word document with a number of subscription renewal

automatic renewal reminders to individuals?
