You build these boxes that you enter the data in and then link other
parts of the document to that field. You then lock the document so that
you then only have to enter the info into the data fields.
Think of adobe form fill... but for Word.

That’s fair enough, but I’m sure there must be some sort of
Word-native function that can accommodate this and remove the
requirement for the Search and Replace?

simple method, use the text <<CUSTOMER>> in the template throughout
the document, and then perform a Search and Replace ALL for
<<CUSTOMER>> with the actual customer name for each time the template
is copied and used.

My Microsoft Office skills are a bit limited and I can’t seem to
frame the Google query right today…
I am writing a template document. At the start of this I want to
put a section for “Customer Name”, the idea being that when a user
uses the template they can simply put the correct customer name in
here, and then it is updated in every part of the document where
the customer name needs to appear.
What function is it I want to use here? I just can’t seem to frame
the right query to get Google to tell me the answer, and Alexa is
simply telling me she doesn’t understand…
TIA,
