Hi folks,
I am developing a template user guide and have made extensive use of form
fields for user input. On the front page of the guide I have included form
fields for Document type, Document title, Document Sub-title, Name of
company, Name of Department. All of these are defined with a Style name and I
use StyleRef fields throughout the document to have the text auto-filled from
the entries on the cover.
This is my question: As soon as I have completed the front cover I notice
that the Title and Sub-title are automatically included in the header BUT not
in the body of the text. Also, none of the other fields are included until I
press Print Preview. The only help I can find in Word is what I have done
already, namely check Update Fields and Update links under Tools/ Options.
Is this normal? If yes, and the user must do something, is there a better
option than Print Preview?
I am using Word XP. Thanks for any enlightenment!
