Import Indicated Sections Only

Open the target document and indicate which section or sections of the document to import by inserting textual tags around the areas.  In the screenshot of the Word document below, only the part of the document located between the text IMPORTSECTION will be included.

Start/Stop Text Tips

Format - The examples used the start/stop text IMPORTSECTION & IGNORESECTION.  Contour does not restrict the start/stop text to just these two entries, however due to Word styles and formatting it is recommend that simple one word all caps text is used similar to the examples.
Uncommon Words - Any words used as start/stop text should not be words that may be included in the document's text as content.  An example would be the word "exclude".
