I didn't pick the format to send them out in either, or I would have recommended/researched out a better option prior to starting the project.

Bummer. I am willing to bet that it could be done better.

Thee are a lot of factors, and I have to start with some assumptions.

ALL of the returning documents use the SAME logic. That is, a document from Yogi Bear that answers Yes to question 33 gets the SAME response as a docment from Bugs Bunny that also answers Yes to question 33.

ALL of the boilerplate chunks are in ONE document, and those chunks are bookmarked.

ALL of the boilerplate chunks are text, no graphics.

The response documents are identical in that they are built (being the only difference) from the boilerplate chunks. Identifying elements can be built into this.

The working environments in Word will be only the template with the code and the incoming question document. Note if this is the case, and the boilerplate document contains just text, the boilerplate document does not have to be open.This method uses INCLUDETEXT fields, which simply act as pointers.

There are issues with this simple method, and there are certainly other means to achieve what you want, but this may be a start.

BTW, what version of Word are you using
