INSERTION CODES FOR DOCUMENTS
* This worksheet has been provided to simplify the process of
customizing your living trust documents. You may replace the
descriptive information (listed under "Insertion Text" below), with
your actual data and print this file out. This print out can act as
your guide as you edit your living trust documents in the manner
described in the next paragraphs. (As an alternative, a printed copy
of this worksheet is provided in your LivingTrustBuilder manual, which
can be filled in by hand and used for the same purpose.)
* After completing your worksheet, open a living trust document and
use your wordprocessor to simply replace the occurrence(s) of the
codes (listed under "Codes") with your actual data (listed under
"Insertion Text" on your completed worksheet). We recommend that you
use your wordprocessor's Search/Replace (or Find/Change) function or
utility for this purpose. (Type in the code as the "Search"
information, and your actual data as the "Replace" information.
Repeat this process for each code used in each document you will be
needing.) This will save you much time and effort, and get the job
done cleanly.
* When editing your documents, remember to change the ENTIRE insertion
code (including the leading and trailing "***" and not just the "Q1")
- some rather odd insertions will appear if you don't. For your
convenience, a listing of the insertion codes referenced in each
document is given in the manual next to the printed copy of that
document.
