Save Selection

Hey Paul,

Lets say that there is ContentControl(1), ContentControl(2), ContentControl(3) on my form. I then combine two or more of these forms together. Does ContentControl(1), ContentControl(2), ContentControl(3) on the second form rename to ContentControl(4), ContentControl(5), ContentControl(6) and so on? Or do the controls retain their name?

I believe that command buttons keep adding numbers as no two can have the same name.

I do not know where to find the name of a content control so I cannot manually check this. I also tried writing the code to loop through each form but that also failed:/ so I cannot check it with code.

But now with more though about what works best… I want the users to also be able to use prior versions of the form. The old forms do not have content controls and the location in the table of the fields I am searching for are different.

Rich text content controls are new for me as well... I tried in the past to use form fields but the limited use of these fields was very preventative to users and they did not like it. I like the rich text ones because it still allows them to input tables, spell check (without the use of a macro), and generally use Word in a manner they are accustom to. Many of our users already have limited Word understanding and many users need the ability to document text using bullets, tables, etc.

On my prior post, can you direct me how to loop the code? Everything I have tried just duplicates the entries for the last form.

How’s your summer over there in the capital? My dad lived in Australia a long time ago, amongst many other continents, and it was the one place he always spoke about returning.

Thanks
Brock
