Data driven, dynamic language document assembly system

A method for a computer for generating a plurality of document files, each containing at least one block of text describing a transaction between a plurality of parties, the method including the steps of:

• creating a plurality of party definition objects (67), each corresponding to a separate one of said plurality of parties and each including executable party definition procedures for generating text associated with the corresponding party;
• creating a plurality of executable text objects (24), each for generating a separate block of text including text associated with each of said parties and other text, each text object generating text associated with one of said parties by invoking execution of one of said party definition procedures;
• and
• creating a plurality of executable form objects (23), each corresponding to a separate one of said document files, for generating the document file including invoking execution of at least one of said first text objects.

A method for a computer for generating a document (12) describing a transaction between a plurality of parties, the method including the steps of:

• creating an input data object (20) including first data defining characteristics of said parties,
• creating a plurality of party definition objects (62), each corresponding to a separate one of said plurality of parties and each including executable party definition procedures for generating text associated with the corresponding party in accordance with said first data;
• creating a plurality of executable text objects (24), each for generating a separate block of text, wherein a block of text generated by at least one of said text objects includes text associated with at least one of said parties invoking execution of at least one of said party definition procedures;
• creating an executable form object (23) for generating a document file defining said document, said document file including at least one block of text generated by one of said text objects, wherein said form object selects and invokes execution of at least one of said text objects to obtain said at least one block of text;
• invoking execution of said form object such that said form object generates said document file;
• and
• printing said document in response to said document file.
