I am currently proof-reading a technical manual and am coming across numerous instances of sentence structure which I believe to be incorrect. Here's an example:
After filling in a custom field, this will add a new field to the
Add Person screen...
My problem is with the use of the word "this" after the first phrase. I re-worded to say,
After filling in a custom field, a new field will be added...
I think this is a case of active vs. passive voice. Am I right to note the first statement as incorrect grammar?
