Is there a way to synchronize sections of different Word documents?

I'm working on how my company does documentation (especially programming documentation). I'd like to be able to synchronize sections of different Word documents, such that if a section in one document changes, the change is reflected in the other document, and vice versa. Is there a way to do this with Word, and if not, is there some word processing program that is good at this?

Solution

  • Why not just use the Master and Subdocument features built-in with Word? It's exactly for your kind of situation.
