Field codes: IncludeText field
{ INCLUDETEXT "FileName" [Bookmark ] [Switches ] }
Inserts the text and graphics contained in the named document. You can insert the entire document, or, if it's a
Microsoft Word document, you can insert only the portion referred to by a bookmark. This
field was formerly called the INCLUDE field.
Notes
- If the source document is a Word document, you can edit the inserted text resulting from the INCLUDETEXT field and save the changes back to the source
document. Edit the inserted text, and then press CTRL+SHIFT+F7.
- The INCLUDETEXT field doesn't make use of OLE.
Instructions

- The name and location of the document. If the location includes a long file
name with spaces, enclose it in quotation marks. Replace single backslashes with
double backslashes to specify the path,

- The name of a bookmark that refers to the portion of the document you want to
include.
