Data Documents!

A data document is a text file containing information arranged in a special format. Mariner Write can then retrieve individ-
ual items to include in the template document.!

The first line of the data document is the names record. It gives names to all the pieces in the document. These pieces of
information are divided into categories (called fields) and the items in the names record are the names for each of these
categories. "LastName" and "Address" are examples of field names. Field names are separated by tabs, and the name
record ends with a return character.!
