Is this even possible?
Imagine a series of paragraphs with a link word "Reply" separating each of them.
The text field is locked.
The objective is to click the link word to obtain the insertion point for a new paragraph.
In this application, it must be the only way to add to the text in the locked paragraphs.
Any practical suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thank you again Klaus, this is a great help in moving me forward.
Yes, you did understand me perfectly.
I an researching how to make Reply into a link that contains a unique number. So far, typing Reply and changing it into a link format is as far as I have got. I have not found where the help shows it programmatically.

Hi,
Here si a little stack working like that
In a locked fld "fText", there is a text with 2 words "paraG1" and "paraG2" textstyle = link.
One clic on a link word insert the text of one fld (fparaG1 or fParag2) after the link of fld "fText" if
the uMyDysplay of the fld = false and erase it in fld "fText" if true
Best regards
Jean-Marc

Hello jmburnod,
Thank you for the stack.
I am studying it and can see some useful features that I will consider.
I am exploring how to place an address or other data in the link word so it looks like Reply but contains something different.
Any ideas?

Re: Is this even possible?
I have figured out how to create the link, put data into it and then see the data.
Things are starting to move forward now.
I didn't realise how much I had forgotten.
