Removing formfield graphics on prints
I have a series of dropdown boxes on a form but am unable to remove the
dropdown button and box graphic surrounding the final response so that it shows up on prints. How do I remove this? |

It really isn't meant to be removed. One scheme that might work is a macro (actually a pair of macros, FilePrint and FilePrintDefault to intercept the menu command and the toolbar button, respectively). The macro would delete each dropdown field and replace it with a plain-text copy of the selected entry; print the document; and then either call Undo the proper number of times, or simply close the document without saving and then reopen it. Kludges like this are why Greg Maxey told you in another thread that collecting information through a UserForm and placing it into the document is preferred over protected forms. Because there would be no dropdowns in the document itself, this issue wouldn't occur. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
