Hyperlink updating
I am creating a word document (document 1) that makes references to paragraphs in another word document (document 2). If the paragraph numbers change in document 2 (for example are added or deleted), will or can the hyperlinks in document 1 be automatically updated to reflect the new content.
I hope this makes sense, if it doesn't, please feel free to ask any questions. The project is quite complex. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! |

If these are two separate documents, you cannot insert an auto-updating cross-reference.

That is simply not true. Word provides INCLUDETEXT fields for just that purpose.

You can use INCLUDETEXT fields for linking content between documents. See Word's Help file for details of their usage. In addition to what you see there, you might want to check Word's options to 'update automatic links at open' and to update fields before printing.
