[ISO/IEC 29500-1 1st Edition]

17.15.1.32 docVars (Document Variables)

This element specifies the presence of documentvariables in a WordprocessingML. A document variable is a storage location for arbitrary customer data in name/value pairs that is persisted in a given WordprocessingML document.

[Note: This mechanism is maintained for legacy compatibility only, and should be avoided in favor of the custom XML data support defined in ISO/IEC 29500. end note]

[Example: Consider the following WordprocessingML specifying three document variables:

<w:docVars>
  <w:docVar … />
<w:docVar … />
<w:docVar … />
</w:docVars>

The docVars element contains three child elements each defining a single document variable in this document. end example]
