duplicating redlined text repeatedly
Word 2003
A project I have recently been asked to undertake involves recreating into several separate documents, the exact same redline text from an original document. The ultimate goal is for all additional documents to resemble the original document with the exception off names, dollar figures and other miscellaneous information. Other than cutting and pasting every occurrence of applicable redline text several times over for each subsequent document using the €œSpike€ feature, is anyone able to furnish a suggestion for different, less repetitive, less manual way of accomplishing the same thing or something close to it? Much appreciation in advance €“ RPM |

duplicating redlined text repeatedly
You could try creating one "master-merge" document that contains all the text
and MailMerge fields where the changes would go. You'll need to create a data source to keep all the relevent field infomation then. I would suggest doing it in Excel. Just make sure that all your fields names take up the first row and there are no blank rows between the field names and the actual data. Then you would use the MailMerge wizard to use your master document and grab the change information from the excel list.
