Inserting XML Elements in Word

This topic provides detailed information on how to insert XML elements in your Word document. When you insert XML elements, you need to do the following:

1. Decide which field value you would like displayed in the final report, and locate the name of its corresponding XML Element in the Task Pane.
2. Position the mouse cursor at the place where you would like a field value displayed in the final report. Alternatively, you can select some text that you would like to embed within an XML element’s start and end tags.
3. Click the element in the Task Pane to insert it into your document. Check that the start and end tags are in the right place. If you want to reposition the element you can drag the start and end tags to a new position.

You can insert the following items:

• <DocumentData> element
• Item lists
• Fields that are references to other documents
