Contract, subcontract synchronization
Our users develop contracts and subcontracts from model documents, (model
docs are generic in nature, containing basic contract wording). They copy all generic model docs to a new folder as new projects are started. They then would like to make changes to the main contract and have those changes pushed to the correct section within the other subcontracts. The changes consist of: 1) minor word changes, 2)logo additions, 3) adding supplier or subcontractor names and addresses, etc. What would be the best approach to allow for these changes to take place??? |

Contract, subcontract synchronization
This is far from simple. Especially if you are adding things that were not
planned when the documents were set up. Look into the IncludeText field and bookmarks. For supplier names and addresses, I would consider using mailmerge. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
