One of the new features in The Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 is Quick Parts. This feature provides snippets-like capabilities in Outlook, namely reusable pieces of content that can be called up when you’re writing a message.
It would be very interesting if these were stored as accessible XML file(s)that could be incorporated into a single source content management system. Then, it would open up the potential to re-use this content in other documents or bring in content from other data repositories.
You can save content and distribute them with Microsoft templates for other users, but this approach doesn’t seem to give provide authors with a great deal of version control.
