Inserting Variables into Word
You can insert a variable into a source document after you apply a Microsoft Word template that contains the variables to your source document. If you want to use a variable that is not defined in a Microsoft Word template, you must create the variable in your source document before you can insert it. For more information about creating a variable, see “Creating Variables in Word” on page 204.
The following procedure provides an example of how to insert variables in Microsoft Word source documents using Microsoft Word 2003. Steps for inserting variables in Microsoft Word may be different in other versions of Microsoft Word.
