Document Properties ................................................................................................

When you use Word document properties rather than bookmarks to write Access data to a Word

document, you don’t need to have two (or more) sets of bookmarks, one for each place you want

to display a piece of data (for example, displaying the recipient’s name and address on the letter

and the envelope). You can write the data to a document property once and display it in multiple

places in the Word document with DocProperty fields.

To create the properties, first select Finish from the File menu in the template, and select Properties,

as shown in Figure 2.7.
