Sticky business computing ???
A number of questions and possibilities come to mind.
Firstly the 'job' should be evaluated. A print and complete by hand *may*
be the most efficient way of doing the job, compared with setting up a
computer routine. This is especially so if you are putting just a couple of
bits of information and 'presentation' is not important.
Secondly, why can't you insert new information?
Thirdly, it may be best to have a template. This is a near finished
document. I would then add 'dummy' information in, say, red to remind you
that here is information that should be updated. I would then save this
file as a read only to prevent the template from being overwritten. When
you open and update the template it should be saved in another name using
'save as'.
I hope this gives you a few ideas.
Regards.

Thanks Bill
Think I may have to go back to school. I'm trying to 'run before I can
walk'. The forms I mentioned are expenses forms that require calculating. I
just thought it would be quicker to use the facilities in excel.
I don't know why I can't add imformation to the original doc. As mentioned
above, I need to go back to school. (Many many years since I last sat in a
school room)
Thanks again, sorry to have taken up your time.
