Same Text in Multiple Fields
I have a very simple form in which I list a college name twice. I am a form
field set up so I can complete the field with a new college name for each student, but I would like to type the college name only once. Is there a way to have the same text entered into two separate fields at one time? Thank you. |

Thanks, Jean-Guy, but I don't understand the REF field information or how to
insert it. I do not have an online form, if that is important to know. "Jean-Guy Marcil" wrote: "Cthulhu" wrote: I have a very simple form in which I list a college name twice.

A ref field repeats the content of a bookmark. There are a number of ways to
bookmark text of which form fields are only one. You could, for example, use an ASK field. However you said that you have a form? Inserting form fields (an on line form) would seem to fit the bill. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Cthulhu wrote: Thanks, Jean-Guy, but I don't understand the REF field information or how to insert it.
