SetUserField:

This event is fired when the editor encounters a user-field as the text is being rendered. This event uses two arguments. The first argument specifies the page number (zero based) where the user-field was encountered. The second argument provides the absolute text position of the field. The absolute text position can be converted into the line/column position using the TerAbsToRowCol method.

Typically your application would set the text value of the current user field when this event is encountered. The text for the field is set using the TerSetUserField method.
