two text form fields linked words not appearing in 2nd field
I am trying to do a letter where i have text form fields. I have been able
to link the name in the address to a field called name in the document. what io can't do is when i type the name in the address it does not update the link to then show it in the document. I have been able to do it before but can't remember how. E.G. Attention: Joe Bloggs then address then further down Dear NAME and it should put Joe in there. It has driven me nuts any help would be appreciated. thanks |
