Hello everyone,

I wonder if there is a solution to the following issues:

1) I complete some text field at one point of a Word Document and the
field is populated throughout the document at different predifined
points.
2) A document includes formulas that perform calculations on numeric
fields like those used in (1).

Thanks for any help.
 
For (1), select the text you want repeated, Insert a Bookmark, name
the Bookmark something you can remember (one word, no spaces), and
where you want the info to be repeated, Insert > Cross Reference >
Bookmark > Bookmark text.
 
Hi Stathis,

To see the kinds of field calculations you can do in Word, check out my Word Field Maths Tutorial, at:http://www.wopr.com/index.php?showtopic=365442&st=0&p=365442&#entry36...

Hello again. Is it possible to include a DocProperty field inside a
Formula field? I tried some options and i could not make this
possible.


Thank you.
 
Hi Stathis,

Certainly. For example, if you have a DOCPROPERTY field named 'MyVal', the following formula would multiply it by 5:
{=5*{DOCPROPERTY MyVal}}

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste
them from this message.
