Form text fields dissappear after merge
We are trying to mail merge a form. When we merge the drop down and check
boxes merge properly but the blank text fields (areas for the recipient to type in text) disappear. Is there a work around that we can use to stop this happening. |

Form text fields dissappear after merge
Hi ?B?Sm9ieQ==?=,
We are trying to mail merge a form. When we merge the drop down and check boxes merge properly but the blank text fields (areas for the recipient to type in text) disappear. Is there a work around that we can use to stop this happening. Forms and mail merge were not designed to work together. See this article WD2000: Text Form Fields Are Not Retained During Mail Merge http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=211308 Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 17 2005) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |
