    2. Only open XML based Excel files (xlsx, Office 2007 and later), will be supported as coversheets.

       • The tag format is {object|value|optional filter}
       • Tag start is denoted with a "{"
       • Object is the source object. The following objects are supported: Transmittal (the distribution order, TransmittalItem (one or more documents that are added to the transmittal), and TransmittalItemFile (the file that was downloaded and added to the transmittal)
       • Value is the equivalent to an eQL select statement
       • Filter is an equivalent to an eQL statement where Clause is optional
       • Each Tag component is separated by a vertical bar, "|"
       • Tag end is denoted with a "}"
