public class FromVariableReplacement extends AbstractMigratorUsingAnswersFormat
This class will help you to migrate from a string replacement approach, to use of content control data bindings. After migrating, you'll be able to use the OpenDoPE authoring tool to add repeats, conditionals, and other OpenDoPE features, if you need them. It assumes your magic strings take the form ${--}. If they don't, you'll need to modify this class, or use Word to search/replace to change them so they take that form. We'd be happy to accept a patch which specifies a regex the magic string must match. Limitations: this first version operates only on the main document part (ie it won't process variables in headers/footers, footnotes/endnotes, or comments)
