Forcing a value in MS-Word

dheerajnagpal · 04-02-2007, 02:38 AM

Dear All

I have a requirement to create a word template/file where it should validate presence of a value in a form field on saving of the file.

Is it possible to put this kind of check in a word file to validate presence of a form field or a table cell on saving of a word file.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I'm guessing that this would need some kind of VBA code to work. However, I'm not much good at VBA with Word - have you tried somewhere like www.vbaexpress.com? They have a big Word forum that might help.
