- Hi Matt,
-
- Are you trying to have the same text in this file on every card.
- If so, the job's a simple one. Create a background field, and
- then bring up the field dialog box. The last property on the
- left side is 'Shared Text'; check it and click 'OK'. Now copy
- the text and from the background, paste it into your field.
-
- Presto...
-
- Good Luck.
