Re: Fields in a protected form



Yes, instead of a second field, use a cross-reference to the text of the
bookmark assigned to the first field and check the "Calculate on Exit" box
for that formfield. That will cause the fields in the document to be
updated so that the entered text is shown in the location of the cross
reference.
