Default best way to apply a new template to an existing document

Shauna Kelly's article at
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/atta...ate/index.html covers most of
your questions. The answer overall is not encouraging.

Because there are many documents involved, it would probably be worth
creating a macro that would automate the cut-and-paste conversion. Because
finished documents are almost never simply "pour this text into this
template", though, I don't think you'll ever be able to do without a final
manual review-and-tweak session.


I had a feeling that this was the case. I'll read the article. Thanks so
much for the pointer!
