Add, delete, and change the order of a repeating region entry



Use repeating region controls to add, delete, or change the order of entries in template-based documents. When you add a repeating region entry, a copy of the entire repeating region is added. To update the content in the repeating regions, the original template must include an editable region in the repeating region.
