text form boxes in footers
I have a form that has refernece cells so that information can be
autopopulated throughout the document. They all are working fine except the ones in my footers. The text in the text form boxes do show up when I print however they do not appear in normal view or print preview. Is there a way I can get them to appear. Thanks |

What kind of forms are you using? Which version of Word?

I think I need to use a STYLEREF form box but I can't seem to get it to work,
but that may not be what I need to do. "JNL19" wrote: I am using Word 2007 and its in a .dotm template. I hope thats the answer your looking for.

text form boxes in footers
Nevermind I figured out what I needed to do, and got it to work! But now I
have one more problem, when I look at this document in print preview and try to scroll through it, Word skips the pages that don't have text form boxes in them. That is it only shows the pages with text form boxes in them and not any of the other pages. When printed all pages do come out, though I do not know why I cannot scroll through them in print preview. Any help?

I can confirm what you are seeing in Print Preview with a Word document
protected for forms, at least if I'm using the vertical scroll bar, including the Next and Previous buttons on that scroll bar. However, I can show any page of the document if I use the Next Page and Previous Page buttons on the Print Preview ribbon. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "JNL19" wrote in message ...

Yes I noticed that I could do that. Do you know of a way though for it to
allow me to scroll through all the pages. Not trying to nitpick, but I will be sending this form out to many customers so I am just trying to get it as smooth as possible.

I wasn't aware of the issue at all until you told me. I'll post back if/when
I get additional information. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "JNL19" wrote in message ... Yes I noticed that I could do that.

As a follow-up, I'd like to mention that a fellow MVP has also been able to
reproduce the issue, even for an older version (Word 2000). No other workaround, besides using the Next Page / Previous Page buttons, has been found. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "JNL19" wrote in message ...
