Insert a bookmark field
I am trying to insert a bookmark field in a document template. The
template I will use in a Delphi program. I am confused how I should Insert such a field. The help is nog clear to me. It says: ================================================== ========== Insert a bookmark field To print the information assigned to a bookmark by an ASK or SET field, you must insert a bookmark field in the main document where you want Microsoft Word to print the information. In the main document, click where you want Word to print the information. Press CTRL+F9 to insert a pair of field characters ({ }). Between the field characters, type the name of the bookmark you defined in the SET or ASK field. If the bookmark name is also the name of a Word field, type REF before the bookmark name; for example, { REF Title }. ================================================== ========== I am confused about what should be: "the bookmark you defined in the SET or ASK field". Should I do something before entering ctrl-f9'myfieldname'? If I open the document template I get the error message: "Error! Bookmark not defined" At the exact place I wanted to put my bookmark field. Thanks in advance. |

Insert a bookmark field
Hi marcwentink
If you just want to create a bookmark, then select the text to be bookmarked, and do Insert Bookmark. Give it a name and press OK. If you're trying to refer to the bookmark, then you just need a REF field. Unless you want to use an ASK or SET field, don't worry about them. Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.

That seems to work but should not I see the title/name of the bookmark in my templatename.dot file? I am asking this since I am working with an old template file were the other bookmarks seems to be written as text in the file. I just do not know if this is just written text added after adding the bookmark, or if the name/title of the bookmark itself is displayed. If in my own developped program change the text of the bookmark called 'mybookmrk', the 'mybookmrk' text is replaced though, so I think somehow you can change the bookmark properties to write its name? I have no way of finding out how the old file was made. |
