Building blocks

Once I have amended a quick part ie change a logo, although called the same, will it change every instance or do I have to reinsert the quick part

RE: building blocks - updating logos

Dear Chris

Thank you for attending Word Intermediate course. I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

This is a very interesting question. Unfortunately Quick Parts don't work like Styles. Although, it would be great if they did!!

It is important to understand that QuickPart are an alternative to AutoText. In addition to only using Text you can now include pictures within Quick Parts.

Once you create a QuickPart with the logo and text and have inserted it in various sections of your document and decided to change the logo then you'll have to replace the Logo manually and over-write the previous QuickPart. Please note that it will not replace the logos on the existing QuickParts. You'll have to manually have to insert the new QuickPart with the new logo.

If there is a better method of carrying out the task that you wish to do then I'll research into it and notify you.

Please mark this post as resolved if you believe that I have answered your question!! Or press reply button and ask your more specific question!!

Many thanks

Kindest Regards

Word tip:

Assign shortcut keys to styles

If you're a fan of using styles, you can create your own shortcut keys to apply styles quickly.

Go to Tools - Customise, then to the Options tab. Click on the Keyboard button on this tab.

Scroll down the list displayed on the left, until you see Styles. Click on Styles to select it, then you will see a list of styles currently available for use on the right.

If a style you wish to assign a shortcut key to does not appear in the list on the right, close out of the dialogue box, apply the style, then follow the steps above again - you should then see the style listed.

Enter your shortcut key combination in the 'Press new shortcut key' box. If the shortcut keys selected are already assigned to another function in Word, it will be displayed in the box.

If you want to overwrite the existing function for the shortcut keys you have chosen, click Assign.

If you wish to assign a unique set of shortcut keys, use Backspace to remove the shortcut keys you have typed in; then try typing in another key combination. Click Assign when you have a key combination you are happy with.
