Creating a live document
No worries, I get what you're saying ๐. Sounds like you're stuck in a bit of a loop with updating that run sheet every week.
Given you've got a non-profit licence, you've got access to some pretty cool Microsoft tools. Here are a few ideas:
1. *SharePoint or OneDrive with a shared file*: Like you mentioned, you could share a Word doc or Excel sheet directly from OneDrive or SharePoint. The key is to make sure everyone has edit access, so when changes are made, everyone's got the latest version. You could even set up a shortcut to the file in Teams or Outlook for easy access.
2. *Microsoft Lists*: This could work well for managing the runs. You could create a list in SharePoint or Teams with all the run details, and drivers could access it from anywhere. Plus, it's pretty easy to update on the go.
3. *Power Apps*: If you're feeling adventurous, you could whip up a simple app to manage the runs. It's part of your non-profit licence, and it's pretty intuitive, even for non-techies.
4. *Excel Online with links*: Create an Excel sheet with the run info, and share the link. Drivers can access it from any browser, and it'll always be up-to-date.
The thing is, you're looking for something simple that doesn't involve re-sharing links every week. I'd say give the shared Word doc or Excel sheet a go โ it's pretty straightforward, and with a shared link, everyone should be able to access the latest version.
