Default Master Table Template


Does anyone know if there is a function in Word (any version) that
allows you to create a master table that when inputted with information
automatically updates other tables and specified fields within a
document? Or if this can be done in excel?

Thanks

Matt

See the Repeating Data item on fellow MVP Greg Maxey's website at:

Alternatively, use an Excel spreadsheet as the "Master Table" and in the
documents where you want the data to appear, insert links to the appropriate
cells in that spreadsheet.
