I have a template which is filled in for new projects. However some parts of the document always change, eg. dates, name of project etc. Is there any way that if I change one part, e.g the date on the first page or a table on the first page, other pages linked to the first page automatically change?

I have tried cross referencing but it doesnt seem to work with information contained within a table, for example if there is a date of submission in a table, I am not able to update just the date and have other parts of the document cross reference to the date and update automatically.

You may be able to use properties and insert update field to achieve this. Depends how many fields repeat.
