Level 2

Hi,

I'm trying to insert floattind fields in a text.

eg : Mr. (flaotting field) will arrive the (floatting filed_date) and ...

The floatting field isn't include in my text but it's up the subform.

How can I integrate it in the text ?

Thanks.

I'm french, I hope than my question is understable

Hi,

You can do it by putting script on initialize event:

this.rawValue = concat("Mr.", floatField1.rawValue ," will arrive the ", datafield.rawValue , "and ...")

or you have to use few controls, which have to be pu in one line

(text)(TextField)(text)(TextField)

Best regards,

Hi,

I changed your form. I added textfield and few scripts for textfield and date control. After it will be changed in the TextField new text will appear.

Hope this is what you need.

So, I tried your form. But it does'nt work as I aspect for.

It isn't possible to insert floatting textfied directly in the text ?

Thanks

Perhaps there are some misconceptions here ... a floating field is a "special" case field that only exists in Design mode. It will "mark" the location of where certain data is to be merged onto the form. Once the data is merged and the form is rendered the field is turned into static text (and is no longer a field). It has no interactive qualities. So it is only useful for merging data onto the form at Render time.

Hope that helps

Hi,

I changed my example in other way, try it, maybe it can be helpful for you.

Try to change first combo and text field.
