newbie needs help

[Mike]

I never done VBA programming EVER. but I need to and not sure how to do it.

Heres the problem.
I have a word template that has a field(s) that allow dollar amounts $0.00.
The problem is that sometimes the user can enter a Percentage but if they do
that it shows as $0.
How can I allow this field to allow percents 4% of dollar amounts %19.99?
I know i can change the property format field, but the users like the $ be
prefilled.

is it even possible to allow a field to allow both?
If possible can someone point me to an example or something to help me with
this?
