Hi,
I have this form for work that has basic client info (i.e. Client Name, Family Name, Family ID, etc) at the top repeated on all 3 pages . I was wondering if there is a way to make it where we can input data on just the first page and have it repeat on the following 2. I’ve tried to use input fields and set variables, but they didn’t work or I’m not doing them correctly. Either way, I’m stumped. If it’s possible, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
I don’t know of a way to do what you want without using macros. Not saying there isn’t a way but I haven’t figured out one.
Using a rather small macro the text box info can be copied into other areas. However, instead of text boxes on the other pages, the attached sample uses a label field to display the information on multiple lines. This reduces the number of controls needed and prohibits unwanted entry if text box properties incorrectly set.
Sample using Label field: NameAddressTest.odt
I actually don’t care for that method. So this second sample (still using macro) places the information in a table within the header. Since it is in the header (starting on Page #2) separate controls are not needed. It will appear on however many pages you have.
Sample using table in Header: NameAddressTestHeader.odt
Of course actual setup for each of these depends entirely upon your needs.
