Word letter automation
In Word 2003 I would like to create a letter template in which I could
add a two digit code for a sentence or series of words to be added. eg [01] and then "Size 44 Boots" appears after the [01]. or I would like to list the items and only the ones marked with a [x] would be added to the letter. Any advice would be a bonus. I am aware of Auto Correct but cannot get it to work from a [ ] box? Thanks Jp aka Tonton |
