You are saving it as the same original name  check11.  Read my original instructions about naming files and location priority.

If you have it as a new name starting with a number then it will put that form at the top so it defaults for you.  Remember to identify DD for direct deposit forms because they should be different than the form you use to print paper checks.  DD stubs require you manually add your company name, address and phone number on the check area (because those are typcially on a preprinted check) AND you want to add the words "NON-NEGOTIABLE" on the DD form across where the signature would go, or remove the check area completely so that the DD is a stub only.

Were you replying to my question? I wasn't asking about how to rename a new file to make it the default, I was asking about how to edit the formatting to add fields that aren't currently printed on Checks or DD stubs. I did screen shot your instructions in case we ended up having issues with the file name and default templates though because it did seem like a relevant problem we may run into, but currently we are trying to figure out how to add accrued sick time to check stubs.

Hi Brittany. You would add the Sick Available field from the Employee table, as the screenshots indicate. It would need to be an 8-pt font in order to fit. Keep in mind this number gets updated when the final compute is done, so the available hours will include the current paycheck. The drawback to using this field is that if you go to reprint a past paycheck the accrued amount shown will be the current amount, not the amount when the check was originally printed.

I was because the images above show you how to add the code for the form.

Edit form design

Right click in the area you want to add the field, right click, add field

find the Employee table on the left 

5

5-2

5-2-1

Click on the employees table on the left

The fields will be displayed on the right

Look for Sick Available

Double click the field to add it to the form

Right click on that field to format it

I like to make it a different forecolor like royal blue; and choose Format  #####0.00

Good point GHollister!
