Re: How do I apply a different font to a cross reference?



1. Insert \* MERGEFORMAT within the reference fields, so they look
something like { REF _123123123 \* MERGEFORMAT } (press Alt-F9 to
display/hide fieldcodes). That makes the format of the references
independent of the format of the reference source.

2. Define and apply a character style to the reference fields.

I have a form in Word in which I want the user to be able to enter
information in one place and then have this information automatically
populate to another place within the document.

I have used cross references to accomplish this task very nicely. The
problem is that I want the first appearance of the information to be
formatted with one type of font, and the second appearance of the
information
to be formatted with another type of font. Seems like it should be easy
enough to just use the format font command on the position of the cross
reference. This only works on the first word of the fill-in. If someone
types Joe Smith at the top of the page and I want Joe Smith to
automatically
be filled in later in the document but in a different font, only Joe will
be
formatted correctly. Smith converts back to the default font of the
document.
