    - MVP Userform How2 question for Doug Robbins At the MVP website location: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm ...Under Step 2, Doug says that after creating a bookmark, "You can then use a cross reference to the text of the bookmark if you want the same information to appear in another location." Several of the items in my userform need to appear in multiple locations throughout the document, but so far, my experiments with cross references produce no success. In fact, when I place the cursor in those other locations and try to insert a cross reference to the original bookmark, nothing gets inserted. What am I missing?

    - Renaming documents from text within the document using existing Ma I've been working with the following Macro to seperate a large document into individual documents. The Macro saves these new documents as "test_1.doc", "test_2.doc," etc. Everytime I run the macro, I have to then go back and rename all the documents manually. The first line of the document always begins with "Name:" and I rename the document simply by copying and pasting the name that follows. Is there a way to have the macro do this for me? Something that tells it to copy line 1 col 7-50 and paste into the FileName? Sub BreakOnSection() ' Used to set criteria for moving through the document by section.

    - Macro very slow in Word 2003 Back in June, I posted a problem on this newsgroup about as macro that searches for a regular pattern in table cells and defines tab positions if the pattern is found (Thread 'find, format tabs and replace in table cells'). Thanks to Helmut Weber, my initial attempt was greatly improved and worked at an acceptable speed in Word 2000 (from 25 seconds on a 19 page document to .375 seconds!). But now I've got Word 2003 and I'm also working on larger documents (60 pages) and processing time has increased to 6 minutes. I suspect that memory problems are playing up as well since another macro creates garbage if run after this first one, whereas it runs perfectly if I save and quit Word before running it. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve the performance of this macro? (From my posting on June 27: I've got tables with counts and percentages in many of the table cells in the form "35.3% (47/133)". I want the percentages to align so I wrote a macro to define right-aligning tab positions at 40% and 100% of the cells usable width and then insert a tab character between the percentage sign and the opening parenthesis.) Advance thanks for any help, John Hendrickx Public Sub TabsForPctAndCount() Dim t As Single t = Timer Dim aRange As Range Dim oCell As Cell Dim UseableWidth As Single Set aRange = ActiveDocument.Range System.Cursor = wdCursorWait ' Displays the hourglass Application.ScreenUpdating = False With aRange.find .Text = "([0-9.]{1,8}%)[ ]{1,5}\(" .Replacement.Text = "^t\1^t(" .MatchWildcards = True While .Execute If aRange.Information(wdWithInTable) Then .Execute replace:=wdReplaceOne Set oCell = aRange.Cells(1) UseableWidth = _ oCell.Width - oCell.LeftPadding - oCell.RightPadding oCell.Range.ParagraphFormat.TabStops.ClearAll oCell.Range.ParagraphFormat.TabStops.add _ Position:=UseableWidth * 0.4, Alignment:=wdAlignTabRight oCell.Range.ParagraphFormat.TabStops.add _ Position:=UseableWidth, Alignment:=wdAlignTabRight aRange.Start = oCell.Range.End + 1 aRange.End = ActiveDocument.Range.End End If Wend End With System.Cursor = wdCursorNormal ' Normal cursor Application.ScreenUpdating = True StatusBar = "Macro TabsForPctAndCount completed."

    - Annoyance: Documents opening in markup mode I think my word is configured to open in markup mode, because no matter if I save a document in normal or print, it always appears in markup mode as well. I don't want it, so I recently added the following code to my documents, to switch off markup mode, when the document is opened. Sub Document_Open() WordBasic.ViewChanges If ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial = wdPaneNone Then ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdPrintView Else ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView End If End Sub Is there a way to switch markup mode off through word options, or is there a way to add the above code to my personal macro workbook, so that all documents open normally?

    - How to create a toggle button for a toolbar command Hi there, First, I have never written a visual basic program or code or however it is called, only recorded macros a few times and looked at the code (?) in the Visual Basic Editor. Therefore, if anyone can help me, I'm afraid I will need the complete code (or whatever) that I can just paste into VBA and - hey presto! I am working with WORD 2003 and found out, thanks to this discussion group, that in order to use "select all instances" of a style I have to click "Keep track of formatting". Well, I do hate "Keep track of formatting" because it generates these stupid styles like "block text bold" etc. But, on the other hand, I sometimes would like to find all instances where a certain style is used in a document. For this purpose, I want to create a toggle button that switches on and off the "Keep track of formatting" function. I have recorded a macro to click "keep track of formatting" and it looks like this: Sub TrackFormatting() ' ' TrackFormatting Macro ' Application.DisplayStatusBar = True Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar = True Application.ShowStartupDialog = False With ActiveWindow .DisplayHorizontalScrollBar = True .DisplayVerticalScrollBar = True .DisplayLeftScrollBar = False .StyleAreaWidth = CentimetersToPoints(0) .DisplayVerticalRuler = True .DisplayRightRuler = False .DisplayScreenTips = True With .View .ShowAnimation = True .Draft = False .WrapToWindow = False .ShowPicturePlaceHolders = False .ShowFieldCodes = False .ShowBookmarks = False .FieldShading = wdFieldShadingWhenSelected .ShowTabs = False .ShowSpaces = False .ShowParagraphs = False .ShowHyphens = False .ShowHiddenText = False .ShowAll = True .ShowDrawings = True .ShowObjectAnchors = False .ShowTextBoundaries = True .ShowHighlight = True .DisplayPageBoundaries = True .DisplaySmartTags = True End With End With With Options .ReplaceSelection = True .AllowDragAndDrop = True .AutoWordSelection = False .INSKeyForPaste = False .PasteSmartCutPaste = True .AllowAccentedUppercase = False .PictureEditor = "Microsoft Office Word" .TabIndentKey = True .Overtype = False .AllowClickAndTypeMouse = False .CtrlClickHyperlinkToOpen = True .AutoKeyboardSwitching = False .PictureWrapType = wdWrapMergeInline .DisplayPasteOptions = False .PromptUpdateStyle = True .FormatScanning = True .ShowFormatError = False .SmartParaSelection = False .SmartCursoring = True End With ActiveDocument.ClickAndTypeParagraphStyle = "Normal" End Sub Well, there seem to be quite a lot of things in this that probably are not necessary for my purpose. And I can't identify which line refers to my "keep track of formatting" function.... But, more important, I have no idea what to do now. I can assign a button to this macro, but how can I make this button toggle between the two states, so that I can click and unclick "keep track of formatting"? I am totally helpless.

    - Copying hyperlink including nametag Hello all, I haven't posted here in quite a while. The below macro copies the first hyperlink in the document.

Is there any way I can get this macro to copy the nametag if there is one? Thanks.

    - How to replace a string of characters with the count of the charac I have what seemed at first to be a trivial task for a Word 2003 SP2 macro (VB 6.3). Given a body of text containing a range of characters (letters (upper and lower case), digits, punctuation, spaces), all but the letters A-Z need to be removed, then the resulting text needs to be sorted, and finally, the count of each letter should replace each block of sorted letters. So: â??I wandered lonely as a cloud, that floats on high oâ??er vales and hills, etc., etc., with a few 12345 thrown in for good measure!â?? becomes penultimately: â??AAAAAAAAACCCDDDDDEEEEEEEEEEFFFGGHHHHHHIIIIILLLLLLLMNNNNNNOOOOOOOOORRRRRSSSSSTTTTTTTUUVWWWWYâ?? and then finally: 9 0 3 5 10 3 2 6 5 0 0 7 1 6 9 0 0 5 5 7 2 1 4 0 1 0. (The zeros appear where a letter in the sequence is missing and so the count for that letter is zero). I did some searching around and found very useful information on the use of Search/Replace with wildcards from Graham Mayor and Klaus Linke at word.mvps.org (excellent job â?? thank you!. Iâ??ve been using MS Word for probably 15 years and I still find something to learn :)) My initial code worked OK â?? my approach was to first select the entire body of text and render it upper case, then use Search/Replace with the FIND wildcard sequence [!A-Z] and the REPLACE sequence null to reduce the text to solely A-Z. A subsequent Search/Replace on the text added a carriage return after every character, the result was sorted, followed by another Search/Replace to remove all the carriage returns. (There may be a quicker/simpler way but Iâ??m not aware of it.) When it came to replacing each block of the same letter with its count, I hit a snag. Try as I might, I cannot find a simple programmatic way to do what I want. I thought I had a solution when I tested a manual approach, using FIND with Highlight checked (so the count is returned, but more importantly the block of matching text is selected on exiting FIND, so that â?? I thought â?? I could just replace the selection with the contents of Selection.Characters.Count (and add a space as a separator). Not so. What works manually doesnâ??t appear to work in a macro. If I create a macro (even if I record one) that uses FIND to locate and select all matching characters, upon completion only the first character in the group is selected, whether I use Selection or Range. I havenâ??t found a bug report that describes the FIND problem â?? yet â?? and there are clearly more complex workarounds that I could devise, but Iâ??d prefer to keep the solution minimal and simple if I can. Iâ??d be very grateful for some guidance, even if itâ??s to say: â??Use a workaround; FIND is bugged.â?? Best, Peter Example code: Sub M8() ' ' Macro M8 created 10/15/2007 by Peter GQ Brooks ' ' Sort the text.

    - Macro to print watermark Thanks to this group I have code to print the part of a document located between two bookmarks: Set r = ActiveDocument.Range( _ Start:=ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("DocStart").End, _ End:=ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("DocEnd").Start) r.Select ActiveDocument.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintSelection Set r = Nothing Selection.HomeKey unit:=wdStory I have placed this code into an add-in, and I use an autoexec macro to add a custom toolbar with a button for running the macro. It works as it should (although I wish I could get it to print the header and footer, but that may not be possible, from what I can understand). However, the main reason for this post is that I would like to add a watermark to the range of pages being printed. This is some code (abridged for readability) I created using the macro recorder (except that I changed "PowerPlusWaterMarkObject1" to "msoTextEffect1"). ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Range.Select ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekCurrentPageHeader Selection.HeaderFooter.Shapes.AddTextEffect(msoTextEffect1, _ "XYZ Company", "Arial Black", 1, False, False, 0, 0).Select Selection.ShapeRange.Name = "msoTextEffect1" Selection.ShapeRange.TextEffect.NormalizedHeight = False ' More Selection.ShapeRange items ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument I can run the macro in the document in which it was created, but I cannot find the trick to having the macro run in the document containing the bookmarks. In other words, I open a document, and the Add-In loads with the code to print between the bookmarks. I can run the macro, and it prints only the part of the document it should. However, I cannot get it to run the watermark code on the open document. I expect part of the problem is that Sections(1) does not apply, and things of that sort, but I can't seem to sort it all out. Can I run the watermark code along with the code to print the selection between the bookmarks? Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106579

    - Macro that searches for highlights Strange happenings. I have a macro that searches for highlighting and copies it to the clipboard. Occasionally, the macro aborts with an error because there's nothing to copy. 1) If I manually search for highlights, I don't find any. 2) The macro supposedly finds something, but the cursor is still sitting at the top of the dcoument when the error occurs. 3) I tried to test for a zero-length field to work around the problem, but the selected data wasn't zero-length. ???? Note #2. 4) I eventually traced the problem to certain cells in a table. a) If I delete the data in that cell, the problem persists. b) If I select the cells and "remove highlighting" then the macro works fine. I know the solution, but I need more.. * Does anyone know what might be happening? * I want to find a way to train my macro to detect the problem and not abort when it encounters it. Just in case, here's the relevent portion of the macro (I've test it to see if it is troubled by those nasty cells -- it is): Sub temp3() Selection.Find.ClearFormatting Selection.Find.Highlight = True With Selection.Find .Text = "" .Replacement.Text = "" .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindStop .Format = True End With If Selection.Find.Execute = True Then MsgBox "Found" End Sub I'm afraid I don't know how to let you examine the cells. -- JohnTheTemp Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106509

    - Making a Process Alphabetical I have an ongoing problem. I use a program written in Access that manipulates a bunch of Word documents. I'll spare you the details, but the program basically does the following... (1) Creates and opens a new word file (called the "collection document"), and then creates a header and inserts a blank table of contents. (2) Begins opening Word files, one at a time, n a specified folder path. (3) When each Word file is opened, the program searches for a bookmarked block of text, copies that text, switches back to the "collection document," inserts a heading equal to the filename of the Word document from which it copied the text, and pastes the text immediately below. (4) The program loops through all of the documents in the specified folder. (5) When there are no more documents, the program updates the TOC to show the page numbers of each heading, and saves and closes the "collection document." My problem is... I want the blocks of text to be alphabetized by their heading. I thought that the program would loop through the files in the folder in alphabetical order, but it seems to use some random order that I can't figure out. I'm just using a simple Do While loop to loop through the files, as shown below [code establishing variables and such] myname = Dir(filedir, vbNormal) ' Retrieve the first entry. Do While myname <> "" ' Start the loop. If Left(myname, 1) <> "~" Then If (GetAttr(filedir & myname) And vbNormal) = vbNormal Then If Right$(myname, 4) = ".doc" Then Set mydoc = myapp.Documents.Open(filedir & myname, False, True, False) [the code for finding and copying the bookmarks, and pasting them into the collection document, is here] 'close the file mydoc.Close SaveChanges:=False End If End If End If myname = Dir Loop [code to update TOC, and some other random formatting stuff, and to save and close the document] Any idea where it is getting the order to go through the files? Any way to change something so that it goes through them in alphabetical order? Thanks, td Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106501

    - Command Bar ID I have the ORK .ADM templates added into a GPO. I need to prevent users from using the Send To.. Command Bar. It's not listed in the predefined "Disable command bar and menu items" so I have to go to the custom "Disable command bar and menu items" section, and it wants the commands bar ID to disable it. I don't have Visual Basic for Applications, and it isn't looking like I will be getting it any time soon. Does anyone happen to know the command bar ID for "Send To..." and/or any of it's sub-commands? Thanks for your time. Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106498

    - Conditional Macro Word 2003 I have a form document that is comprised of a series of six questions. Each question is followed by a Check Box; The CheckBox Bookmarks are named: Schedule1A, Schedule2A, etc. ending with Schedule6A I would like to set up a macro that begins with a *Submission Button* which would appear at the end of the form, analyze the condition of the preceding CheckBoxes and *fire* the remainder of the macro, which would beâ?¦ If the Check Box for Schedule1A is checked, insert Document No. XYZ at the end of the current document, followed by a Section Break If the Check Box for Schedule2A is checked, insert Document No. ABC at the end of the current document, followed by a Section Break So forth and so on, up to and including Schedule6A The reason for wanting the Section Breaks between the inserted documents is to facilitate the reordering of the subsequent compiled document if needed. If any one of you has a suggestion as to how to go about the above, I would be most appreciative. This is my first undertaking of anything beyond simple recorded macros â?? so please be gentle! Hopefully, Iâ??ve written out this macro scenario in a manner that is capable of being understood. Thanking you in advance, I remainâ?¦ Very truly yours â??

    - Working with FormFields in VBA I am having one .rtf file protected with some form fields enabled for user entry. I wanted to have Spell Check enabled for this protected document. I found your code online and seems that is working perfectly fine for spell check. Now the issue is that while running spell check, this code somehow also removes the name associated with the form fields, this is problematic as I want to parse the document on the basis of the name. I tried creating array of the form field name and assigning those name back after spell check but seems like that FormFields is a read only property. So can you please help me out in this problem? Thanking you in advance. Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106493

    - please clarify menu customization context Hello I've read to not change normal.dot when adding a custom menu. So I've put my custom menu and macros on a global template and saved the template in the startup folder (wdStartupPath). When i do this (and checked its loaded as an add-in) I can only see my menu when there is a document open that is attached to the global template (which I've read I should never have, and don't want). When the active document is attached to normal.dot I cannot see my menu. But with alt-F8 I can see my macros on the template. I thought I had read customization and macros on global templates were available (and visible) to all open documents, whatever their template. Can someone pleases clarify if this is supposed to work? FYI... I've built my menu at runtime with customization context as the global template and set to visible and enabled. I've also made one manually at design time with the same result. Word 2002 and 2007 Thanks! Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106471

    - Want to protect, but not lock for viewing Hi there, for ask field purposes, I've needed to create a lock function that locks the sheet but does not refresh the fields. So using this: ActiveDocument.Protect _ Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True, Password:="pfhlock" The only problem is, this is inserting a "lock for viewing" password too. This is to be sent out for people to update certain fields but I don't want to have to provide them with a password because this will unlock the entire sheet. How can I get around this?

    - Saving a setting for a document and template no matter who opens i ---Saving a setting for a document and template no matter who opens it (and no matter what their normal.dot template specifies)--- Saving a setting for a document and template no matter who opens it (and no matter what their normal.dot template specifies) Hello all, I need to know if setting the Tools>Options > check spelling as you type while working in a particular document... will save for just that document, or for all documents ever opened from that computer. i.e is the setting a.. document setting, or a user profile setting, or a template setting? How do I make Word always 'check spelling as you type' for EVERY document opened and created, without having to set the option for every document?I'm guessing I set my own normal.dot template this way. This is fine for me...but on a network level like SharePoint when many people may look at one document, just say my normal.dot says to 'check spelling...', but their normal.dot doesn't have it checked, is there any way I can make it so at least that particular document has the option set? i.e can i save the setting to the document itself, not just to normal.dot?

    - Enable/Disable Toolbar button Word does it, so how can I do it? I want to enable/disable a toolbar button depending on cursor location/selection. For example, if I put the 'Restart Numbering' and 'Continue Numbering' buttons on the 'Formatting' toolbar, Word "knows" to enable these buttons _only_ if the current selection is numbered. Any ideas on how to replicate this functionality for the buttons on my own custom toolbar so the macro assigned to the button can be run only in the correct context? (In fact, the 'Restart/Continue Numbering' functionality is the functionality that I want to replicate, but I can't just add the native Word buttons to my custom toolbar because this functionality doesn't work with protected documents. So if somebody has a clever idea for getting around this...) -- Cheers! The Kiwi Koder Go the (~cough-splutter-gag~) 'Boks... Tag: INCLUDETEXT w/DOCVARIABLE Tag: 106459

I need to use VBA to determine the name of the bookmark containing the insertion point. Sounds simple, but I can't get the index, which I need to get the name.

{docvariable MONEY}, etc.....

â??DOCUMENT Bâ?? reads: â??I received your payment,, {include text
\\server\path\documentA.doc}. Your prompt payment etc, etcâ?¦â??

The problem is when DOCUMENT B is opened by a user to complete, â??DOCUMENT
Aâ?? is inserted but it does not include the {docvariable MONEY}â?? â?? only the
text.

Is there another field that I should be using instead of the INCLUDETEXT?
Is this my problem, the INCLUDETEXT statement? â??
