It sounds like you have used text form fields, whereas you would probably
have been better served by ASK or Macrobutton fields

User Form

I have created a letter template for the first time - and i used a
site referenced on the discussion board to insert text boxes for my
letter variables.
i want the end user to be able to open this template and be prompted
with each of these variables to enter, and then be able to print the
letter. I have also used two REF items.
When i open the letter I see the gray boxes, but what is needed to
prompt the user to enter info in each of these boxes?
