Hi Kirk,

I think you would let the user create templates by:

1) creating the template document in 4D Write; and
2) dragging value placeholders (you defined) into the document to retrieve 
database information.

Unlike the legacy 4D Write, working programmatically with 4D Write Pro means:

1) using Write Pro commands; and
2) mixing-in commands from the 4D language.

For embedding expressions in a Write Pro document, have you looked at these 
Styled Text commands?

1) ST INSERT EXPRESSION (to embed reference in template document)
2) ST COMPUTE EXPRESSION (to get reference values)
3) ST SET OPTIONS (to switch display of reference and value of reference)

Best regards,
Jeremy French
