Re: Document Template
If you need to display data from an external database, you need to use standard ADO.NET library and ASP.NET controls to display the data.

Re: Document Template
The document template is a custom document type, such as article, news, product details, for which you can define custom fields, such as Articlename, ProductPrice, etc.

The purpose of document templates is to enable content editors to enter content in a structured format.
