Hi,
We produce numerous RFPs every year that ask technical questions to which we provide written responses. We use MS word as a work processor for this work. Questions are often similar to previous ones, or can serve as a foundation for the new response.

We would like to be able to capture these questions in a database so we can search them etc.

Can Word be programmed do this based on outline levels? Doe any one have a suggested solution?

Thanks so much.



Jeff

You would be much better off using Access (or another relational database) than Word.

Can Word be used as a Database? Yes, I've done it, but it is not well suited for this task.

You could certainly put questions and answers into a lengthy document with keywords. You could use find to locate answers, but you would not be able to do any really complex or refined searches.
