Thanks, Jay, for the response. I will check out the tutorial links you
suggest.

More specifically, this is what I want to do:

I copied the HTML code from one of my web pages into Word and created a
template. I need to have places in the template where I can insert
information, such a the photo's name before the .jpg extension, the photo's
caption, etc. I would like to have someway of having a description at each
insertion place of what is required and, also, to have something pop up into
which one types what is to be inserted.

The way I have it now is that I just have a description in red color in the
HTML code in the template of what is needed at each insertion point, but I
have to delete all this stuff before (or after) I enter the information.


Anyway...any suggestions you have would be appreciated.
Thanks,

gman
