The image at the left is a copy of a Microsoft Word document. In the case of that document, you can see that it contains much of the normal text you would find in a letter. Along with that, though, there are also variables that refer to data fields in your LawStream data base (e.g., client name, postal code, salutation). Once you have a document like this, you can use it as a basis for letters to be sent to any client/contact in your LawStream data base: just export the data from LawStream, save that exported data, and then select the exported data after you have opened this document in Microsoft Word.
