View Full Version : INSERTING A FIELD VIA AUTOTEXT ENTRY

Hi all,

I have a Word document which I populate via a Userform. In addition to the usual textboxes, the Userform has a Checkbox with a drop-down list containing a list of Autotext Entries.

One of those Autotext entries contains a ref field. If I select that entry the field is displayed in my document as text for a merge code and not as the ref field result.

On the otherhand if I insert the Autotext manually into my document the field result is displayed correctly.

I should add that the field itself refers to another bookmark in the document. I don't know if that has any bearing on it.

It would seem therefore that inserting an Autotext (with a field) into a Bookmark via a Userform is the problem but I don't know where to start to solve the problem.

Can anyone help?

Greg.
