XTemplate

Description

XTemplate is a tool for Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook that is used to create templates that can easily pull information from Excel Workbooks so that you don't have to fetch this data manually. It provides a very simple template syntax, and makes working with recurring, standardized Documents, Presentations, and Emails much easier.

Usage

To use XTemplate, simply put templates throughout your Document, Presentations, and Emails, and then run the XTemplate macro. If the syntax is correct, and the Workbooks you want to fetch data from exist within the correct folder, the templates will be replaced with the value in the respective Workbook. The template syntax looks like this:

{{ C:\Files\[MyWorkbook.xslx]MySheet!A1 }}

In this case, when running the XTemplate Macro, this template will be replaced with the value in Range A1 within a Sheet named MySheet, within a Workbook named MyWorkbook.xlsx, which is founded within the folder C:\Files\

Download and Installation

For more information about the template syntax, downloads, and installation, please see the official documentation.
