Managing Changing Letterhead

Q: WORD97 I've been putting the letterhead up in the header of our templates which has worked fine but they have changed the letterhead. Now I have 35 templates that I need to change. What is the best way to setup my templates so that if the letterhead changes I only have to make one change that affects all the templates with the letterhead? Thank you for your time and interest,

A: You could create the letterhead as a single graphic and link to the file (Insert | Picture | From File | Link to File). Then when the linked graphic is changed, it can be updated in the templates. If you want existing documents to retain their historical letterhead, however, you will need to unlink the graphic upon creation of a document (though this will greatly add to the document size).
