text box fields keep erasing when deleting body text

S

somo

Hi,

I am putting together a fax template, using text boxes for all fields such
as name, number etc.
and have just normal body text for the main content.

everytime i delete the body text, all the fields in the text boxes delete
also.

The body text and boxes seem to link somehow? Can i stop this happening?

Text boxes are in the drawing layer of the document and behave unpredictably
when used with fields. Use a table instead.
