I might be going about this wrong, but this is my idea:

I have a XML document in the format of:

<lenders>
<lender>
<name>Bank of America</name>
<address>1234 Main Street</address>
<benefits>
<benefit>0.25% interest rate reduction</benefit>
</benefits>
</lender>
<lender>
...
</lender>
</lenders>

I use that xml document with PHP to create web content (using a table to display each lender and their benefits). No problems there.

What I am trying to do is to "link" that xml file as part of a Word document that has graphics, other text, etc. The reason why I say linked is because I want to keep it in that xml format for the web, but also when myself or a co-worker opens up the Word document and changes benefit information and saves the Word document, it also saves the changes in the xml document.

Please let me know if I am going about it wrong, or any help in any direction would be much appreciated. Thank you.
