Hello,

I have created one custom property and I would like to put in a text with
multiple paragraphs to re-use it with DOCPROPERTY field.
Example :
{DOCPROPERTY myProp} to get :
Myprop first paragraph
Myprop second paragraph

I tried a lot of ways but I couldn't enter more than one paragraph in my
custom property : how can I do that ?
Thanks for your help

You'd need to use a macro, including a userForm, to enter the information
and write it to the document property. But note that you're limited to a
maximum of 255 characters.

Wouldn't an autotext entry/field work better for this? The autotext can be
as long as you wish.

Define the property with a dummy value. Then switch to VBA and in the
Immediate window, type:

activedocument.CustomDocumentProperties("myProp") = "Myprop first paragraph"
& vbcr & "Myprop second paragraph"
