Sorry!!! While my interest was suspended (due to a vacation) it was not lost
all together. Charles, you answered my question in part, it just wasn't what
I wanted to hear. I could scan the form like you suggested, but am hesitant
to do so becuase of the reasons you mentioned. I was hoping there was an
option somewhere that would allow me to limit printing to fields only (all
fields). Since it appears there is not, I thought I might try my hand at
inserting some code that will autofill my duplicate cells (that is I would
replace my ref fields with text fields that auto fill). I am confident that
is the better solution, but am afraid it is beyond my technical grasp at this
point. I will be doing some very beginning VBA training later this week and
was hoping you might be able to point me in the direction of the code I might
be able to borrow inorder to auto-fill subsequent cells upon exit of a
previous cells. I apologize for the previous heated discussion and my seeming
lack of interest.

I'm not trying to fight with you. I truly don't understand your point. What
is it that the OP wanted that I did not respond to? I don't want to make the
same mistake again. I will unless you can tell me.

Yes, you're missing the point. No matter. No doubt the OP has long since
lost interest.

Question: I have a form that I need to print on a pre-printed template
using word 2003.
I know how to print data only from the print dialogue, but my form has
both
form fields and ref fields and I need to print them both. Is there a way
to
do this?
Answer: > "You can put a scanned image behind the text, set to conform to

form, and print with drawing images set to not print."
I guess I'm missing something. Form fields will print. Ref fields will
print. They will print on the pre-printed paper form. Not sure what I'm
missing.

This doesn't answer the question.

Hi Jezebel,
And the method I gave the poster lets the poster print REF fields, or
DATE fields, or typed text, onto a preprinted form. Your problem with
the method is?

No, the question relates specifically to printing REF fields. The OP
already knows how to print a form 'data only' which prints only the
contents of formfields, precisely for the purposes of printing onto a
pre-printed form.

And...?
I think the question was how to print on a preprinted form. That is
how to do it. If it is done that way macros aren't needed. But you
can write one if you want. :)

Tsk tsk... Read the question.

First, printing on a pre-printed form is one of the most
challenging tasks there is with a computer. When you change
printers or computers you can expect to have to make changes. That
said...
You can put a scanned image behind the text, set to conform to the
printed form, and print with drawing images set to not print.

I have a form that I need to print on a pre-printed template using
word 2003.
I know how to print data only from the print dialogue, but my form
has both
form fields and ref fields and I need to print them both. Is there
a way to
do this?
Alternatively, I was thinking I could replace the ref fields with
form
fields that are automaticaly filled upon exit of the earlier field
(the field
I am referencing). As of now, all my fields have descriptive
bookmark names,
and I know that I'll need to create a macro that will run upon
exit of the
first field, but don't know where to start or where to look for
the code. Any
suggestions would be most appreciated.
