I want to make a template at work so that instead of retyping or copying the
same letter over and over, we can have the letter as part of the template,
and all we will have to do is change the client name and number,etc.
Does anyone know how to insert a field (like in the word resume template -
{click here to insert name}) into the document?
Thanks.

Thanks so much. the first website answered my question, except that I
couldn't getteh computer to know that I wanted my text to turn into a macro.
So I finally opened a word template letter and copied the fields into my
letter. A bit backwards, but at least it worked.
