Word 2003 fields

[stathisgotsis]

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.

1. See http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm
2. Ref fields (see 1) can be used in calculations.

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.
