Pop Up Prompt FILLIN fields

[Guest]

Is there a way to disable these pop ups but still keep the FILLIN fields.
I have ceated a template with a few fillin field and now realise the pops
are actually quite annoying.

Thanks

When do you want to disable the prompt? When opening? When printing?

For information on FILLIN and ASK fields, see the "User Prompts"
section in the article at

I want to disable the pop ups only when opening a new document. The templates
have been created for someone with very little computer expertise,
unfortunately the pop ups gets them all mixed up.

I remember in early versions you just clicked on the field in the document
to input text.

Thanks

As explained at http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm, you can
use ASK fields instead, if you don't want an automatic prompt.

If you just want to click a piece of text and type text, a MACROBUTTON
field would work equally well. See item 2 in the article at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm.
