Default Creating Master Stationary

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to create a master stationary document? We
have many templates, each containing contact details and footers, etc. When
details change (address, formatting etc) it is extremely tedious to check and
update each and every template in the system. Is it possible to to set up a
single document that can be adjusted to update all other templates?

If not, is there a way to edit one page, and then copy and paste the new
header and footer formatting and text into the other documents when they are
editted?

Thanks!

You can use AutoText fields. Then, when you change the AutoText entry, the
fields will update automatically.
