ok, so i'll try to keep this short but detailed enough.

lets say we have 100 documents. 30 of these documents contain the same exact set of instructions that i want to update/change. what options would i have that would allow for this 'mass update' so that i can change that specific instruciton and every document with that line would be updated to reflect it?
 
It really depends on how your tables are structured

Doc-->Paragraph ---> Line

I would suggest an Update query in which you explicitly identify the records to be updated and explicitly designate the "lines" to be updated would be the easiest/fastest method.

If your tables are not normalized, then ????

What documents? Word Documents?
 
it may be word... but doesnt 'have to be'. just the first option that was brought up.

i need responses to be as detailed as possible
 
ooppps..... i realized this is a general access thread......... thought it was just a general threadh with no tie to a particular app.

access may or may not be used at all...

sorry, this can be moved if best placed in the word forum (but at the same we may not use word either... lol)
