word rich text content control grayed out

I am understanding and making progress with this and have followed and tried the links and advice you have suggested (obviously not absolutely as I still have an issue.)

You can use a utility that will do this for you.Īs for the justification, that likely depends on the paragraph setting in which the control is found. Repeating Data Using Document Properties Content Controls and Other Mapped Content Controlsįor Rich Text, you would need to map it yourself. If it is a plain text control, you could use one of the built-in document property content controls. To duplicate what you type, the simplest method is a mapped content control. PS, one other issue to follow but will get to the bottom of this one first (I hope) Your forbearance and help would be appreciated! Many other tings tried in desperation but I think that is the main ones. Insert text content control box cut and paste special 'link' This works but gives rise to warnings every time the document is opened about copying from a different document and does not work when saved in a template.

Insert text content control box, cut and paste, results variable but not consistent. If I do this it justifies the text 'justified' and spreads lines across whole page, even if paragraph only one word. Insert quick part, copy and paste- No problem but cannot enter more than one paragraph without selecting allow carriage returns. I would like the conclusion/ executive summary which is a half dozen paragraphs to repeat in a second place in the document without having to cut and paste. I now have things set up in word 2016 with half a dozen. Lots of journeys setting up my report templates, documented on this site. I may be a bit stupid and missing the point but please help stop a guy chewing the desk in frustration.
