Ultimately I need to create something that I can share with other members of the company and I don't think ribbon level building blocks would work. I need our staff to be able to pull a particular proposal template for a particular product, enter key information, and then have that template generate. I need to have the ability to be able to change or update text in that auto created document as needed as well. Seems like a straight-forward thing that is actually hard to accomplish. Keep the ideas coming and I'll see how well I do at this.
  1. Userforms date back at least to Word 97 and work fine in Word 2016.
  2. The AutoText (building blocks) can be incorporated in the same template that contains your Wizard. The thing is, these can contain formatting as well as text and can be modified without changing the code in the wizard.
You save blocks of text as AutoText. Your userform tells Word to insert them into the document as needed.
