How do I auto copy & paste text from 1 form field to another?
I have developed a boilerplated form with several fields. Some of the fields
require the exact same information. What I am asking is how do I set up the form so that when I put the information in the first field I want that same information to go into another field automatically without having to duplicate putting the information in more than once. |

How do I auto copy & paste text from 1 form field to another?
You do not use a second form field. Instead you use a REF field for the
duplications. From the FAQ 19. How can I enter something once in a document and have it repeat elsewhere? http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
