Now you can build document-assembly templates in WordPerfect, Ami Pro, and Microsoft Word without having to write macros. With HotDocs, you simply open a document; highlight a name, date, or other text that frequently changes from document to document; and insert a variable for each highlighted choice. To assemble a document using the template, you click on a button, whereupon the template asks questions based on the variables you've defined. In response to your answers, appropriate paragraphs are automatically selected, and variables such as names, dates, pronouns, and verbs are correctly inserted. HotDocs retails for $49.
