WD97: Squares Appear in Text Form Field Inserted from User Form (192161)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q192161 SYMPTOMS
When you insert data from a text box on a user form into a Microsoft Word
document text form field, square characters appear and are printed in the
document.
CAUSE
When you press ENTER to begin a new line in a text box on a user form with
the MultiLine and EnterKeyBehavior properties set to True, a square
character is used to represent the carriage return character (CHR(10)).
This character is not visible if the text is displayed in a message box or
inserted into the document itself.
WORKAROUND
Do not use a text box on a user form with the MultiLine property set to
True to get a Microsoft Word document form field result (value or text).
