Content control printing Word 2007

Solved

Hello,

I have a Word document template .dotx using content controls (quick parts). There is some very interesting text displayed by default: "Click here to type text."
However, I do not want to print this text if the field has not been modified. How can I do that?

I cannot find anything on the forums or elsewhere. Please let me know if it's possible and how to do it if so.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Internet Explorer 8.0

    Hello

    You can format this text as hidden (font format) and choose the option not to print the hidden text.
    As an indication, this text can be modified as you wish, including its style. You simply need to switch to Creation mode.
    Also, as an indication, a content control is not a quick part.

    Note that the style of this text differs from the style of the text that will be entered by the user. Consequently, the text entered by the user will not be hidden.

      Hello,

      I don't know if I'm talking about the same thing, but for me, the problem is not solved!
      When I print my document, I don't need the unfilled form fields to be printed as they are (i.e.: "Click here to type text."...
      If one of you could shed some light on this for me, please? It would be very helpful to me?

      Thank you for your help.

      Best regards,

    Hello.

    I admit that I didn't understand your question!

    "However, I do not wish to print this text if the field is not modified. How can I do that?" -> can you elaborate a bit?
