    Excel if new row is created, auto-populate columns in word doc and create new word doc

    Hi all,

    I have an idea in mind that I'm trying to figure out if it will work. Would the following be possible?

    If I have 3 columns in use

    A. Date
    B. Name
    C. Age

    If one row is fully filled out from A to C, soon as it is saved, I need it to automatically create new word doc, place the new row data into the word document and save it as a new file inside the folder. If another row is filled out, same again, create new word doc, insert new data into the file and save it into the folder.
