Additional Information
Using this function you could, for example, run a macro file from a document startup script (autoexec.sc) that would load tags from a master template document or update text with information from a database. Macro files are also, of course, easier to write than scripts and are worthwhile if you find yourself repeating certain sequences of complicated macros in your work with APP.
