I use a certain font type and size as standard throughout my solution. Users have permission to cut and past text from other fields and other sources (eg: web sites, Word documents...) into my solution's fields. I want all the text to look the same. Is there a way to force the field to retain the font characteristics I want despite the formating of the text being pasted in?

I tried, via FM preferences, font locking, etc... but without success. The only other way I see as a solution is have have an "Enter" button that is scripted to format the text. As this would entail a lot of extra scripting (for all the fields involved) I would prefer not to do this but if it's the only way, I'll make the time.

Thanks for all your help, past and future.

Highlight the Field in Define Fields

Click on the [color:red]Options for the Text Field

Check on the button for box Auto Enter by Calculation

use this calculation

Click [color:blue]Okay

[color:red]Deselect the Checkbox
