Hi! I'm new to all of this. I have a COREL file that, once I open it,
prompts me to enter in a code that is then entered into the text file. I
want to make a similar document with Word that does the same.
For Example.
Double click on mailcode.doc to open my word document
A box pops up and prompts the question "Enter mail code:"
I then proceed to type in "197"
And this number appears in the document where I want it to.
(this is for different mailing codes for different departments). Thanks so
much! I'd appreciate any responses being put in layman's terms as I am a
beginner.
