Outlook email templates with fillable fields for percentage values
In this article
By using the WhatToEnter macro, you can create input fields for percentage values in your templates. These are the steps to follow:
In the template you’re creating or editing, place the cursor where an input field for a percentage value is needed. On the template editor toolbar, select the Insert macro button.
Select What to enter (WTE).
You’ll see the What to enter dialog.
On the General tab, select Percentage, enter the field name and a default value, and specify the number of decimal places.
Switch to the Advanced tab to do any of the following:
- Specify the value to insert into an email message if the result returned by the WhatToEnter macro is not empty.
- Specify the value to insert into an email message if the result returned by the WhatToEnter macro is empty.
- Enter a minimum value.
- Enter a maximum value.
Once you’re ready, select OK.
Your template now contains the WhatToEnter macro placeholder. Select Save.
When you insert the template that has an input field for percentage values into an email message, a pop-up dialog will appear. Enter the percentage you want to use in your email. Then select OK.
