Some thoughts.



Use a userform with checkboxes. Use multiple pages on the userform if you have a lot of choices.

When an OK button is clicked logic determines what checkboxes are checked and then either:

a) inserts the appropriate content as building blocks in the template
OR
b) pulls the content from bookmarks in the reference document

Quote:
The paragraphs build based on the boxes ticked. If a box is un-ticked the paragraph is deleted.
The first sentence can be done with the above...BUT...the second sentence is problematic. The only way to way to logically link the inserted content back to the checkboxes is to bookmark the inserted content. It can be done but it adds a much deeper level of complexity.

It would be nice if a subsequently deleted paragraph also took the associated number of blank lines out,
I do not know what you mean by that. What "associated blank lines"? Why would there be any blank lines?
