Save word form data from multiple forms into one file
I have a word form and I save the data into a file. This works fine. I
changed the save data only in toos options and choose save copy as plain text. Now when the form is filled out again , I want it to save into the same text file so that when I open it in Excel I will have a record for each form. There is a choice which pops you cannot merge thes files because document protection is in effect. What is the best way to accomplish this? |

Save word form data from multiple forms into one file
Hi ?B?RE0=?=,
I have a word form and I save the data into a file. This works fine. I changed the save data only in toos options and choose save copy as plain text. Now when the form is filled out again , I want it to save into the same text file so that when I open it in Excel I will have a record for each form. There is a choice which pops you cannot merge thes files because document protection is in effect. What is the best way to accomplish this? This would require a programmed macro solution; there's nothing built into Word to do this for you.
