Using Forms to Inherit Document Contents on Both Notes and Web Clients

There are two ways inheritance can be used: You can inherit field values from one document to another, or you can inherit the entire document contents into a Rich Text Field on another document. Setting up document content inheritance is identical no matter what client is using inheritance. Set up document content inheritence by following these steps:

1.
In the response form, create a Rich Text field.

2.
Select the Defaults tab on the Form Properties.

3.
Select On Create: Inherit entire selected document into rich text field.

4.
Select the Rich Text field name and select how to display the document: as a link (shown in Table 14.6), as a collapsible rich text field, or as a rich text field.
