Print Text Form Fields

L

Lamar

I received this document that has Text Form Fields. These field have data
typed in. The problem is when I try to print this document then the form
fields
go blank. The data does not print. What is going on?

I want to print the data in the form fields. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Lamar,

It sounds as if the document has been unprotected. Printing an unprotected form causes the fields to reset if you've got the 'update
fields' option selected under Tools|Options|Print.

Alternatively, you could reprotect the document via a macro coded as:
Sub LockIt()
ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True
End Sub

Cheers
