The users select the items that are optional, and when finished that optional content is inserted. Rather than have ALL content in the new document, and the users have to remove anything.

This certainly can be done, and by a variety of methods.


Thanks, Can you give me some leads or samples as to what methods are used?

The webinars and macro samples i have studied only seem to offer methods to format existing content. Can a macro import a textfile/rtf/dotx from the same file folder as the active document? (Sample or link to resourse/webinar for this?) Maybe I can make a menu of macros, designed to import selected text. Maybe this is the wrong design to choose?

I worry that I might have to go the whole developer XML route.

Remember, I want the template (dotx) to have all the content hidden, but but available via an Contents selection interface. The desired text content (docx) only appears if text "headers" for example, are selected as required content. When the user "refresh" document only the selected content shall appear in the document.
Also note the template is distribted, not just used at HQ.

Thanks.
