Grouping Word Documents

May 15, 2008

I was wondering if there was any way to group a set of word documents, and

then define properties for the set as a whole. For example, it would be nice

to be able to specify a project name and number in one place, and then refer

to it in each of the project documents using fields. That way, if the name or

number changed, it would automatically update each document.

Any thoughts? It seems like Word should have this capability, but I can't

find a way to do it.

Try asking a Word newsgroup.
