Question

Is it possible to add automatic insertions in a RH 7 template?

I'm new to RoboHelp and to HTML altogether, but learning quickly. I'm developing a help system with both General help and How to's. I was wondering if it possible to add automatic insertions in a RoboHelp HTML 7 template, as you would in a Word .dot with macros, or if I need to repeat creating tables and numbered steps all the time.

Your support is greatly appreciated.

Hi there

Okay, you have me.

Can you please articulate what you mean by an "automatic insertion"?

Perhaps provide a basic step-by-step of how it works in Word? I personally don't use Word all that often so am really struggling to understand what exactly you are referring to!

Cheers... Rick

Thanks for your quick reply! Funny I just finished going through your RoboHelp HTML 7 Early Bird Dinner. I'm not that familiar with the step-by-step process, but basically, in Word, you can create a template table (such as 2-column Field name & Description) or such and configure it so it can be automatically inserted when clicking a button. It's useful when you need to use the same table, sentence, image, over and over. 

Does this help?

Hi again

Ahhh, I see. I would compare that to using a Snippet!

As you have the Early Bird Dinner eBook, you would find this covered in Section two.
