WordReport Help

[Phil Davis]

While on a walk just now, I was thinking about line endings on Mac vs. 
Windows - they are different! I think you're right - open your original 
template in Word for Windows, add your tag, and save & close it. Then it 
will probably work as you expect.

The text and formatting were not changed in the data tag.  I am hoping that someone who uses WordReport can give me insight on this problem.

Since WordReport uses brackets for the data tags, I am guessing that it is using merge in creating a Word document.  I never used merge in any of my projects.  So, this problem could be possibly related to merge.

I am thinking that Word for the Mac may be the culprit. I used Word for Mac in adding a data tag to the template.  But no other changes were made to the template.
