Old reports should not be updated to the new design - they are, after all,
old reports. Changing them now could have adverse implications if your company was required to produce electronic copies of them for legal proceedings.
If you need to use some of the old content for new reports, use the new template and copy the relevant content from the old reports. If there have been substantial formatting changes, you may find it easiest to paste the old content in as unformatted text (don't do this with hyperlinks, bookmarks & cross-references, footnote/endnote references, tables & images), then apply the new Style definitions to what has been copied & pasted.
