Hi Peter, Christoph,
I've followed this thread with interest, because it's a use-case when
supporting conversions from the old (MsO) to the new (OOo).
Nice to hear somebody else is interested in this thread.
What I didn't read in this thread (or just missed it) is that in MsWord
the tabbing from one field to another works if the document (or section)
is protected and restricted for filling in forms.
That's for me the usual case of filling forms...
3. Binding the selected value of the list field to variables, popup
necessary?
Can't remember I've seen that in MsO.
It is important to have the protected-tab-and-fill-in-forms work in OOo.
However, bulding too much intelligence, possibilities in it, might be
overdone. Because then business logic would point towards database apps
and the apropriate (X-)forms.
Imagine the following scenario:
Start your form with a listbox, in which the user has to select an
entry. If the entry is written into a variable (let say
FieldMaster.SetExpression), then you can control hiding and showing of
sections, paragraphs, conditional text ... The creator of templates will
have a lot of control without any programming skills.
Regards
Peter
