Yeah yeah nah.

Perhaps we have a terminology issue. In Word, a 'building block' is a range of content stored inside a template labelled with a type, category and name. It can then be inserted into a document via the GUI (Insert>Quickparts for instance) or via VBA like the following
ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.BuildingBlockTypes (1).Categories("CategoryName").BuildingBlocks("BBN ame").Insert Where:=Selection.Range, RichText:=True

Are you talking about the same 'Building Block' or are you using the name 'building block' as a term for either unformatted or rich text coming from a database query?
