Update several project files based in one project

I have several projects, one for each application in the same business area.

Some of these manuals share information. I'd like to have a central project where I have information shared in all (or some) projects, and automatically update it in all other projects. Is this possible?

It's similar to the concept of having a master project - but instead of having this project updated considering all others, I'd like to have all projects updated considering the alteration in a central project.

Hi garcia3000 and welcome to the RH community.

There is no way to automatically update the other projects with the amended central project. If you use merged projects you could merge the central project into the other project's TOC. However this stores a local copy of the central project in the project's baggage folder. If the central project is amended, you'll have to re-add the amended CHM to the baggage files folder.
