Merge field delimiter in insert field formula ?
Ok, i know it's probably a stupid question, but I can't figure out
how to insert merge field delimiters (those fancy { } codes) when typing a formula using the insert - field - formula tool. As far as I can tell ctrl+F9 does not work in that situation, nor typing directly the { } ! This is Word 2003 SP1 Fr Thanks for your help --alexT |

Merge field delimiter in insert field formula ?
I don't think you can do it - you must insert the outer field, then the
inner one afterwards, for example, enter the first field as = A * 2 and this will appear as { = A * 2 } then select the A and press Ctrl+F9 to get { = { A } * 2 } -- Enjoy, Tony "AlexT" wrote in message ups.com...

CTRL+F9 does not work in many dialog boxes. Insert the fields manually -
directly into the document, where CTRL+F9 does work. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org AlexT wrote: Ok, i know it's probably a stupid question, but I can't figure out how to insert merge field delimiters (those fancy { } codes) when typing a formula using the insert - field - formula tool.
