Form fill-in

How to paste text into a form and keep form font, not font used by person pasting. Do not want to use plain text.

RE: Form fill-in

Hi Claire,

Thank you for the forum question.

I am sorry but it cannot be done. We can control the formatting using styles in the form control's properties if we write in a form control but not if we paste.

There is one solution. If you use ActiveX controls in your form you can code the controls by using VBA programming.

Kind regards

Word tip:

Double Spaced Text and others

To avoid the problems of breaking text into sub-paragraphs with the Enter key, select your paragraph and use Ctrl+2 to change to double line spacing.

Ctrl+1 returns to single line spacing.
Ctrl+5 changes to 1.5 line spacing.
