Generate text page / print multiple lines of text to screen
Hey guys,
QB newbie here - working my way through the online training webinars. I'm a project manager and a big pain point for my team is generating incidents to submit to technical resources - mostly because they're generally complicated and require a lot of manual editing of templates and inputting values.
I'm designing a form that that will take variables and inputs and track projects, but which also have the ability to generate and print (to screen) a custom template which team members can then copy and submit.
I've been able to achieve what I'm aiming for using Exact Forms, but it seems pretty archaic in 2017 - especially considering I had to go all the way back to Word 2007 just to get the Exact Form macro working.
Ideally, my team would hit a button and QB would spit out lines of plain text on the screen (about 20-30 lines) in a neat and tidy fashion. Am I missing something here? What's the best way to achieve this or do I keep exploring the Exact Forms objection.
Thank you so much!
