Forms - Field Length - Maximum Characters
I'm using MS Office and WORD 2007. I am trying to create a WORD doc with
form fields (primarily text - i.e. Company Name, Address, Phone, etc.) and I've protected the form and now when I try test it, I can only enter one character in the fields... Puzzled! I am used to the old 2003 version "properties" box, and the ability to select the maximum length of characters in a field, and can't find it in the new version. Can anyone help me? Thx! -- KD -- KD |

Forms - Field Length - Maximum Characters
If you use the legacy form fields (Developer tab), they behave exactly as
they did in Word 2003 - even to right clicking and selecting 'properties' to produce the same dialog. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org kdtalktome wrote: I'm using MS Office and WORD 2007.
