How do I automate the completion of frequently-used documents?

[Guest]

I create about 7 word documents when I open a new file at work and I am
filling in the same information on each document. I would like to set up a
master questionnaire for each new file where I am asked to type this
information only once and the answer populates each appropriate field on the
7 documents that are created. Currently, for example, I have to type a real
estate property address multiple times on multiple docs. If I could just
"tell" word that on these documents, the property address goes "here", and
then on a master page answer the question: "What is the property address",
that would be great.

I think one of these methods, maybe both, will get you started:

I would consider a fill-in form, and then use cross references to the
bookmarks. Reference:
