Microsoft Word macros

Rational® Publishing Engine does not update Microsoft Word fields during document generation. You must manually use a macro or manually update any of the fields that you added, such as tables of contents, tables of figures, tables of tables, figure captions, and label captions.
A Microsoft Word .dot file, which contains these macros, is in %RPE_HOME%/utils/word/RPE.dot. When you use this file as a style sheet for Microsoft Word output, you can use any macro listed in the table.
