Breakdown of "Calculate on Exit" function in protected documents with TOC
I got some website feedback last night concerning my tips page on
repeating data. The user was having no problem applying the {REF} field method on new documents but it wouldn't work on several of his existing documents. On further review the failures always occured in documents containing a TOC. I have reviewed some simple sample documents that he provided which are easy to replicate. In every case regardless if the TOCs are in a protected or unprotected section the expected behaviour of the "Calculate on Exit" feature fails. REF fields are not updated. Calculation formula fields are not updated. Nothing. If I unprotectdelete the TOC fieldreprotect then the expected functionality of "calculate on exit" is restored. I realize that on exit macros can be used as a work around, but does anyone have an explanation or reference to a KB article explaining the cause of this behavior? Thanks. |
