Can I modify a field causing global change to all "linked" fields
MS Word 2003. Example of question: Change "version 4.1.3" to "version 4.1.4"
When you modify any field containing version 4.1.3 then all linked fields become version 4.1.4. Can it be done without Search and Replace? |

Can it be done without Search and Replace? You can set up _one_ place to enter the value and have that repeated elsewhere, in any of several ways: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm. For the example you mentioned, the most convenient one will be the DocProperty method (#5). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
