I don't think Matt is intending to change file copies. I think the "letters"
he refers to are form letters used as templates.

You cannot apply a new template to old letter documents and have it update
the fixed elements that they contain - Suzanne's suggestion will help for
the future. For the present a function to search and replace across a
batch of files may be more to the point eg

wisdom of changing file copies of old letters to reflect data that did not
apply at the time they were mailed?

I am currently working in an office where there are lots of letters
that all require the same letterhead. The problem is, people have
left and phone numbers change etc and I am now in the position where
I have to go into 20+ letters and edit them one by one.
Is there any way to pull one letterhead into multiple word files?
This way I can edit that one, and have the changes reflected in all
of the various letters.
