Document Template String Editor

Without some editing, the default values are pretty much useless. In fact, I usually forget to change the default values unless I get into file manipulation. I then find myself scanning through the help for CMultiDocTemplate::CMultiDocTemplate() and CDocTemplate::GetDocString().

Enter this handy little utility. Simply follow these steps:

• Open up the VC resource editor to the resource string for the offending document type.
• Copy the resource string.
• Paste it into the your new Document Template String Editor's multi-line edit field.
• Click the Parse button.
• Edit the offending fields.
• Click the build button
• Copy the multi-line edit's contents.
• Paste the result back into VC's resource editor.
