Hi zsmithku,

The easiest way is to simply delete the unwanted material and save what's left to a new file. before you can even do that, though, Word would need a reliable means of identifying what parts to keep/delete. One way this could be done is via Section breaks, so that you could tell Word to delete, say, Sections 3-5,7 & 9. Of course, if this is going to be hard-coded, you would have to ensure that the document always had the same Section structure.

As an alternative, you could simply bookmark the portions you want replicated (each portion needs a different bookmark) and, in another document, use INCLUDETEXT fields pointing to those bookmarks. If you do that, changes in the 'source' document automatically update in the 'target' document.
