Default auto insertion of text from one word file into another


i have text in one word file, that i need transferring into another word
file

i'm hoping there is an easy method for automatically inserting the data
elements into the other word doc, e.g.


word file 1 (stores the data)
============

NAME: hello
ADDRESS: 56 poo rd

============

run a macro of something, and data is transferred into the below file.

word file 2 (collects the data)
===========

the name is hello, and address is 56 poo rd.

===========


any simple way of doing this???.....macros etc....
don't really want to get into vb and dde if i can avoid it, but
hey if it's the only way then suppose i'll have to


any suggestions would be hugely appreciated

-Huw
