Hi, I really hope that someone can help me!



I seem to spend all my day, writing the same emails over and over again, so I’ve tried to create templates for these. I did this by just listing them all in a word document and numbering them. The problem is that the size of the document is just getting silly, as I now have over 150 templates and they are still growing.

I would love to set up some kind of index on the first couple of pages, so for example I would have 10-15 templates under ‘Legal templates’, a similar amount under ‘Recruitment templates’ etc and then I would just have to click on the one I wanted (with some kind of hyperlink) and then I would immediately be taken to the relevant email template.

I just seem to be going around in circles trying to make this work. Has anyone else tried this and can advise on the best solution? I don’t need detailed instructions, just a rough idea of what the feature is in ‘MS Word’ to do this and then I can google it, to get detailed instructions.

Any other tips from someone who’s done this would be very much appreciated ie Is there another solutions such as storing all of the templates in MS Outlook rather than word? I’m certainly open to everyone's advice and ideas!

I’m currently still on XP/Office 2002, but I’m doing a big jump to 8/Office 2013 next week (I’m sure that the change over will be lots of fun and games!!)

Thanks very much,

Michael
