You can combine any number of static text entries, data fields, and auto text codes in a single text field. The document renders any auto text codes and data fields according to the dataset and document details and combines it with the static text in the field.
For example, if you type Date/time: in a text field, then insert the Date and Time auto text code into the same field, the final text field looks like Date/time: {&DATETIME}. The document displays the results as: Date/time: 11/15/2007 07:15:00 PM
When different types of text are combined in one text field, each type can have its own formatting and properties. For example, you can bold Date/time: but keep the actual date and time in non-bold text.
Open a document in Design or Editable Mode.
Expand the section where you want the text by clicking the plus sign next to the section name.
Add a text field of any type. For steps, see the following:
Type some text in the text field. To create a new line in the text field, press ENTER.
Add another text field of any type, as described below. The new data is added at the position of the text cursor.
To add a data field, drag and drop a dataset object into the selected text field.
To add an auto text code, from the Insert menu, select Auto Text and select the code, or type the code into the text field. For a list of auto text codes, see Auto text codes: datasets or Auto text codes: documents.
When you have finished making all the text entries in the text field, click anywhere outside the text field.
