Is there any way I can test if the addProperty feature works for my template before purchasing the product? In Word, if you insert a DOCProperty field in the body of your document, the value assigned to that property appears in your document. However, if you then change the value of that property, the previously inserted DOCProperty field does not reflect the new value. You have to press the keys crtl and f9 to update any existing placements of the property in the body of the document. Will the original or updated value of the property appear in the word document generated from PHPDocX after using the addProperty feature to modify the values of existing custom properties. When you say that the addProperty feature overrides the add mark feature, do you mean the add bookmark feature? Thanks again
