Referring to a Document Panel infopath field Using an IF field
Hi,
I have made a contract template that uses InfoPath fields, filled in within the Document Panel to populate the contents of the contract. I would like to use checkboxes to govern certain contents of the document template. Example: In the document panel I have a text box titled 'Recipient' and a checkbox titled 'Modifications'. If I type 'Joe Bloggs' into the 'Recipient' text box, his name is added to the document. This works fine. If I check the checkbox 'Modifications' I'd like text referring to modifications in the document to appear. I can't work out how to do this. I imagine I'd use IF fields but I can't work out how to refer to the checkbox within the formula. Does anyone have any idea how to do this? |

The checkbox was added using InfoPath.
InfoPath doesn't have different types of checkbox as far as I can tell. |

Word has three types of checkbox - formfield, content control and ActiveX control. None of these can be evaluated without recourse to a macro.

Thanks macropod. Given how the text boxes behave (which is as content control text boxes), I assume the checkbox is a content control one.
I'll have to find another way to make the template work as I don't want to use a macro. Thanks, Chrad |
