Mailmerge and Forms

One of WPTools' greatest strengths is its impressive ability to mix text with other textfields or data.
Serial letters or reports can be created in a matter of seconds. Plus, the letters and reports generated can even be processed further - that's because they are still texts and not graphic files as is the case with many other report generators.

What's so special about this mailmerge engine?

	mailmerge does not overwrite fields, therefore it's possible to merge the same text again and again
	formatted text and graphics can be inserted during mailmerge
	mailmerge is event driven, thus making it independent of any database
	you are able to change field attributes (color, font style) during mailmerge, e.g. color negative numbers red
	the mailmerge fields are compatible to our WPReporter add-on templates - making it easy to upgrade if you need advanced mailmerge capabilities, such as creating tables or lists.
	The fields can be protected and displayed in a different color

Beyond maillmerge: EditFields

reverse mail merge

This feature is based on the mail-merge technology and takes full advantage of the new properties mentioned above. An 'EditField' works like a mail merge field but its content can be made editable while the rest of the document stays protected. This is great for forms.

HINT: the red << and >> characters can be made invisible. Please set property InsertPoints.Hidden := TRUE;

To enter the form mode, set the flag ppAllExceptForEditFields in the property ProtectedProp:
