Publisher's Description
From More Addin:
More Add-in for Microsoft Word supports the creation of "collapsibles" - parts of a document which can be collapsed or expanded with a click of a button on the page. More Add-in provides Word with the kind of hide/show functionality it has been missing. With More Add-in you can make Word documents more attractive, more readable, more compact, more easily navigated, and generally just more interactive and useful. More Add-in supports two kinds of outlining within Word documents. More Add-in has many power features around collapsible creation, including the ability to make collapsibles from almost any selected part of a document, to automatically add collapsibles to Headings and list items, and to choose from a wide variety of on-page toggle button styles or create your own button style. More Add-in is installed as a template and appears as a tab on the Word ribbon.

"An amazing and essential Add-in for Microsoft Word!"
Version: More Add-in 1.1
Pros
More Add-in adds collapsible sections (hide/show) functionality to Microsoft Word and extends on this idea in an innovative and incredibly useful way.
Cons
Collapsibles are created based on VBA macros which can make it hard to share them with other users, but once those other users have More Add-in this is no issue.
Summary
I have heard much about More Add-in for Word and decided to try it. It's truly a great and time saving Add-in.
Please note the wording in the third to last paragraph "which the begging to creating "More's" should read "which is the beginning to creating "More's""
More is a Word (2007 and 2010) add-in that has been created to allow you to create collapsibles (which are document markers which when clicked hide and unhide document content). This is fantastic for providing documents that double as executive summaries of information and opinions and at the same time can be expanded to reveal more detailed information. E.g. by using More Add-in there is no need to create executive summaries at the begging of reports to summarize report content. Just create the key points that would form the executive summary as collapsibles, and the reader of the report can hide/unhide collapsibles to reveal extra detail of the summarized item they want to see.
The developers of More have then taken this idea further and added great functionality to the Add-in that really makes it unique. E.g. you can use more to turn every heading in a document into a collapsible. This is great for turning a report into an instant executive summary. The same can be done for list paragraphs in a document. You can also remove collapsibles individually one at a time or collectively from a document. You can open and close all "More's" at once as well.
The text or shapes (markers) shown for the collapsible can be chosen from a wide variety of types including Select type...; Default; Custom; Blank; Discrete; More..Less; Show..Hide; + /-; Details; Comment; Chart; Graphic; Image; Disturbing; Table; Formula; Equation; Background; Example; Examples; Transcript; Reason; Objection etc. Marker types can be applied to collapsibles collectively to that the selected style of all collapsible can be changed at the same time.
Moreover (no pun intended) More allows you to print the collapsibles (unexpanded) as the contents page for a document rather than having to print the whole document at once!
The features mentioned above are all able to be accessed from the More Add-in tab which is naturally entitled "More". The main functionality comes from the "Create" button on the more tab which the begging to creating "More's" which can then be customized to the user individual tastes and heart's content.
In short More Add-in is a wonderful, well thought out Add-in that will save you a fortune of time, aggravation and money once you use it and you will soon wonder how you ever got by without it.
I strongly recommend you purchase a copy. It will pay for itself in no time!
The latest version (v4.0.1) of More Add-in can be obtained from this website (check it out!): http://www.moreaddin.com/

"An obvious extension to Word."
Version: More Add-in 1.1
Pros
The core functionality is very handy and very easy to use.
Beyond that the add-in provides a lot of more advanced functions.Cons
Unfortunately the functionality is based on VBA macros which is a hurdle to sharing the "collapsibles" you create with other users.
Summary
This add-in takes a simple idea and makes much more of it than you would have ever expected. Indeed you can see this product as adding a kind of outlining capacity to Word. It is such a natural extension to Word I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft chooses to build something like this into the next version.
