My pseudo code is a follows:

open word
find location of my next bookmark
move cursor to positio nidentified by bookmark
insert a form field
In form field permit user to enter- multiple paragraphs of any free form
text.
The above text can be in any format
Copy the contents of the field including format
store in SQL Server table.
next bookmark

When all bookmark fields are completed,
extract each field from SQL database
paste both content and format in a new Word document at a position specified
by bookmark.
end

How do I copy contents of field and format in SQL table?
How do I paste above?

Thanks!

Hi Code_dc,

Couple of problems with this

1) a Formfield already is a bookmark. So theoretically you have no problem
getting the text the user typed out of the formfield

2) However, the user cannot format freely in a form field, because in a
document protected for forms, the formatting commands are unavailable. You
can get around this with VBA, but it would have to be very extensive to cover
all the formatting the user might want.

3) Can you store (Word) formatting in an SQL table?
