Logical tests between Word form text fields
I have a Drop-Down form field with "Yes" and "No". I want to place the value
4 in a Text form field in the same document if the user selects "Yes" in the Drop-Down field. I set the Text form field to type "Calculation" but can not figure out the formula to use that doesn't return a Syntax error or "Undefined Bookmark, Yes". While I have Word 2007, I need to create this form for users with 2003 and so am using Legacy form fields. |

Logical tests between Word form text fields
Hi jstern,
Instead of using a calculation formfield, I'd suggest an ordinary formula field, coded as: {IF{REF Dropdown1}= "Yes" "4"} or {IF{REF Dropdown1}= "Yes" "4" "0"} where 'Dropdown1' is the Dropdown's bookmark name and '0' is the alternate value to display. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "jstern" wrote in message ...
