I am looking to make a template for my work environment, but what I have done so far hasn’t worked. I have tried saving the word document as a .dotx format so that I can save building blocks to it, but it doesn’t seem to stick (building blocks don’t transfer) for when others open the file. The building blocks I have created include a photo, name, phone number, and position/title of the respective person effectively signing the document. Drop-downs don’t seem to be able yo get the job done. Anyone have a work-around for this without having to transfer a building block file to everyone anytime there is an update (new person added to the list of those possibly signing or a change in the document)?
