Using auto text can save a lot of time. We use it at school for our letterhead and our sign offs. Here's how you do it with Word 2007:
 * Auto Text**

This will then give you a shortcut to whatever you are using by typing the name you have saved it as and then hitting the F3 button.
 * First up you need to get the auto text toolbar to appear on your shortcut menu. To do this hit the windows home icon, choose word options, customise and then a list of toolbar options will come up. You may need to change the choice from popular commands to All Commands. Scroll down and find auto text. Press the arrow so auto text goes to the right hand side and then go okay. The icon will then appear on the top of your toolbar.
 * Open a word document - type what you need including any logo.
 * Highlight what you want to auto text
 * Go to the auto text button and you will see a brief preview
 * Save to auto text
 * THEN GIVE IT A SHORTCUT! e.g. logo
 * Close that screen
