This Word add-in makes it fast and easy to manage and repeat document data using custom document properties and DocProperty fields.
You can add as many custom properties as you want with different data and insert DocProperty fields where you want the data to appear.
This allows you to maintain the data in one place and lets you repeat the data as many times as you want.

Work smarter with document properties
Manage document data like letterhead info, client names, product names, titles, and other specific data all in one place.
The add-in is useful for all kinds of documents: letters, contracts, scientific reports, technical reports, manuals, academic dissertations, etc.
This is completely compatible with Word's built-in custom properties and DocProperty fields.
You no longer need to fight with the limited and inefficient built-in features and interface. This will boost your productivity dramatically.

Add and modify document properties quickly and easily - everything is controlled from a dialog box that can remain open as you work
Insert DocProperty fields with the click of a button - the dialog box remembers what you selected most recently and a filter function lets you quickly find the property you want
Rename custom document properties if relevant - all DocProperty fields in the document are automatically corrected correspondingly and updated
Export custom document properties to a separate document that provides an overview - add, modify and delete properties directly in a table in the export document.
Import custom document properties from any other Word document
Automatically add missing custom document properties that are referred to in DocProperty fields - useful, for example, if you insert content with DocProperty fields copied from other documents
Automatically search the main document for text that matches the value of a specific custom document property. For each found instance, simply click a button to have the text replaced with a DocProperty field or ignored
Automatically format DocProperty fields you insert with bold, italic, underline or a character style of your choice - different formatting can be assigned to the individual custom document properties.
Sort custom document properties alphabetically with the click of a button
