    - Insert two autotext entries? I am trying to take a fill-in field (or maybe have the user click a button a toolbar and pop up a dialog box), have the user type an autotext shortcut, and then based on that shortcut choose the two correct entries to insert at two different bookmark locations. I'm no programmer, so I can record and manipulate macros, but don't know how to write them. See below for the macro I've managed to record that will insert the two entries at two bookmarked locations. Two problems with this code: - I have no idea how to get it to accept the user's input as to which autotext to use. This code just inserts the two autotext entries specified in the code itself. The way the autotext shortcuts work is that I will select a set of initals and the specific entries would be those initials with either an "s" or a "c" appended at the end of the shortcut. So, if I type "alw" the two shortcuts needed would be alws and alwc. If I type dpp, the two shortcuts would be dpps and dppc. I'm hoping if the user types the three initials, the macro can take over and "know" which two autotext shortcuts it should be using. - the autotext entries I need to use are stored in a document that we save in our startup folder, so all the users share it and are able to access our "system wide" autotext entries from it. However, this macro only seems to work with autotext entries that are in my own Normal template. Any shortcut that I try to use from our shared document returns an error saying that the "requested member of the collection does not exist". We could just put in two fill-in fields and have the users type the appropriate shortcuts in each place, however I am hoping to use a macro to help assure that the two entries inserted are always for the same person (so we can't accidently put in contact info block for one person and put in a signature block for another person.) Am I trying to do the impossible or obscenely complicated here? Any ideas anyone has would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!

    - How to deselect floating text box In Word 2000 I have a floating text box in a cell of an many-row table. I am trying to create a macro that will delete the box, the paragraph mark that it is anchored to, and the 3 blank paragraphs after it (all in the same cell). "Selection.ShapeRange.Delete" will delete the text box, but the cursor jumps to the top of the document. I tried some GoBack commands to bring the cursor back to where the box had been but they don't always take the cursor to the right location. What I really want to do is start the macro with the text box already selected by the user, then deselect the box and put the cursor immediately in front of it so I can delete the paragraph containing it. What code do I use to that is equivalent to "deselect the text box and put the cursor immediately before the box"? ("Collapse" puts the cursor in front of the text that is in the box, not before the box.) TIA, Vivian Tag: How can I disable the printing message box in Word 2000? Tag: 76615

    - Convert slide object to jpg I'm using "Send To Word" to get my slides and speaker notes to a Word document for further editing and reformatting. The slides are sent as "slide objects"; this results in an enormous Word file size. In m.p.powerpoint I asked if there is a way to get "Send To Word" - or some similar function - to send jpgs or some other image style. My other option is to convert the slide objects, programmatically, to jpgs.

    - Show/hide large pieces of a document? Hi, Here's an interesting challenge... I was asked to create an application that would let users choose paragraphs to show or hide using a checkbox. The basic idea is that they would look at several alternate paragraphs per page, choose one by checking its checkbox, and then generate the "final" version of the document, which would hide the non-checked paragraphs on each page. In some cases, entire pages could be shown or hidden with page-level checkboxes in addition to the paragraph-level checkboxes (e.g., if a page is checked, only show the paragraphs on that page that are also checked). I don't know where to start on this one. I've fiddled around with bookmarks and ranges, and neither seems to offer an easy answer.

    - Repost: PDF four versions of a document then delete interim saved Word files I posted this the other day but it seems to have fallen off the radar screens because of the weekend. Thanks Mike So I'm working on this template and the client wants it to have the ability to make PDFs of four different versions of the same document... basically changing the logo to reflect the different businesses that are part of the corporation. Okay, I've got that all set up. A couple things are challenging me, though. 1. I've got a button the user can click to generate the four different PDFs. In order to do so, I have to give the document a different file name for each one, otherwise when I create the PDFs it would just overwrite the same PDF file and I'd only end up with one. So I modify the filename and do a "Save As..." and everything's cool. However, I'm unable to pass the path to the Acrobat Distiller printer so I have to have the user manually browse to the directory where the PDF files should be saved. Anyone know of a way I can programmatically pass the appropriate path to the Acrobat Distiller print dialog? Of course, I'd rather not have to have the Acrobat Distiller print dialog display at all but it doesn't seem there's a way to just have it all happen under the hood. Any pointers would be welcome. 2. Because I'm doing the "Save As...", I'm ending up with four separate .DOC files. When I create the file I initially save it with a compound filename, consisting of a filename string the user provides (I put up a dialog box requiring the user to enter a filename) with a string representing the initial logo. So, for example, the initial file might be named "Document1-logo1.doc". When I go through the PDF process, I modify the filename to reflect the change of the logo and do a "Save As...", ending up with three other files... "Document1-logo2.doc", "Document1-logo3.doc" and "Document1-logo4.doc". So the process is as follows: *Create "Document1-logo1.doc" *Print "Document1-logo1.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo1.pdf" *Save as "Document1-logo2.doc" *Print "Document1-logo2.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo2.pdf" *Save as "Document1-logo3.doc" *Print "Document1-logo3.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo3.pdf" *Save as "Document1-logo4.doc" *Print "Document1-logo4.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo4.pdf" The client wants the process to end up with only the original file ("Document1-logo1.doc"), so I need to delete "Document1-logo2.doc", "Document1-logo3.doc" and "Document1-logo4.doc". I store the fully-qualified filenames that I've used as strings named "killfile1", "killfile2" and "killfile3" but when I attempt to delete the files using the language "kill killfile1" I get a "Runtime error '70', Permission denied". So it appears that I've got the instruction correct but there's something that prevents me from actually deleting the file. So my second question is how do I avoid the "Runtime error '70', Permission denied"? Or is there a way I can pass the preferred PDF filename and path directly to the Acrobat Distiller printer driver so I never have to do a "Save As..." to the Word document?? 3. When I create the file initially, the filename I use is constructed from user input (from the example above, the user would have typed "Document1" in the dialog box I put up) with a representative logo string ("-logo1"). If, at some point in the future, the user wants to revise the document, they'll open "Document1-logo1.doc". Now I have a problem because I don't have a user-entered string stored ("Document1"). So if they then click the PDF button, they end up with: "Document1-logo1.doc" "Document1-logo1.pdf" "Document1-logo1-logo2.doc" "Document1-logo1-logo2.pdf" "Document1-logo1-logo3.doc" "Document1-logo1-logo3.pdf" "Document1-logo1-logo4.doc" "Document1-logo1-logo4.pdf" And my file deletion code fails because it's never able to construct the proper "killfile1", "killfile2" and "killfile3" strings. <arggh> Any suggestions??

Ultimately, I hope to use a naming convention to have documents with specific prefixes save to specific directories, but I've got a lot of work and learning to do to get there.

    - Help: Overriding Words built-in-function Hi there, what is the MacroName for the function, found in the toolbar, to insert a table and select the desired number of rows and columns by dragging the mouse? I need to override that macro in order to set the checkbox .AllowAutoFit = False (It is True by default) when a new table is created that way. I have succeeded in overriding the Macro TableInsertTable in the desired template. I can set .AllowAutoFit = False which is the desired behaviour. It looks like this: Sub TableInsertTable () With Dialogs(wdDialogTableInsertTable) If .Show = -1 Then Selection.Tables(1).AllowAutoFit = False End If End With End Sub TIA, Peeter Tag: How can I disable the printing message box in Word 2000?

    - Need macro to erase data when field is changed I've a document with fields in a protected section and a table for approvals in an unprotected section. When the 'Version' field is changed, I want some of the cells in the approvals tables to be cleared. This is to prevent an updated document slipping through without being re-approved. I'll also need a message box to warn people what will happen if they play around with the field. I'm not very good with Word macros so your help is greatly appreciated. -- Linda M Tag: How can I disable the printing message box in Word 2000? Tag: 76571

    - Works in 97 but not in 2003 The following macro works in 97 but not in 2003: > Sub QuotesWf() > > ' QuotesWf Macro > ' Macro recorded 08/14/02 by John Doue > > Selection.Find.ClearFormatting > Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting > With Selection.Find > .Text = "^0147^0148<" > .Replacement.Text = "^0171 " > .Forward = True > .Wrap = wdFindContinue > .Format = False > .MatchCase = False > .MatchWholeWord = False > .MatchWildcards = True > .MatchSoundsLike = False > .MatchAllWordForms = False > End With > Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll > With Selection.Find > .Text = ">^0147^0148" > .Replacement.Text = " ^0187" > .Forward = True > .Wrap = wdFindContinue > .Format = False > .MatchCase = False > .MatchWholeWord = False > .MatchWildcards = True > .MatchSoundsLike = False > .MatchAllWordForms = False > End With > Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll > End Sub It replaces instances of open-close curly quotes by the appropriate quote in French text (my TA software goofs here and I end-up, instead of an open-quote French character at the beginning of a quote, with open-close English curly characters).

    - How to build a delay into a code Hi I'd like to pause a Winword macro until a specific time. I tried something like Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:10") and it came with the compilation error "Method or data member not found". Is it only for Excel? Besides, this seems to be a busy wait which blocks the PC, which I have to avoid, because it will run on a Terminal Server. Why "Application.Wait" doesn't work and what is a better way to build a delay in the code? TIA Alex Tag: How can I disable the printing message box in Word 2000? Tag: 76565

    - Auto running of a macro I have a macro to update all fields in a document. The fields come from the file>properties section. What I want to happen is for the fields to update (ie the macro to run) when the properties form is OK'd. Currently I can only get it to work using the windowActivate event which means you have to select another window first then select back again. Is there an easy way to make this happen. If not is there a way I can create a toolbar button that keeps with the template and doesnt disappear. (I have already tried the button option but it keeps disappearing if I press the button or if I open up a document from the template. The only way to make it reappear is to go back to customise) Tag: How can I disable the printing message box in Word 2000? Tag: 76556

    - Programming Word Form Fields I have created a document with form fields and have been trying to unsuccessfully use the code in kb article 211219 to make the enter key behave like the tab key. I also have an area where credit card info will be entered and have set each number up as separate fields ie 16 as the client wishes to show a line between each number. In this area I would like to have the user type a number key and have the insertion point automatically move to the next field. I am very familiar with MS Access and VBA, but am struggling with word objects. I am using Word 2003. Tag: How can I disable the printing message box in Word 2000? Tag: 76540

I need to know if Microsoft have a way to disable or eliminate a message box.
I am having a problem when a user wants to close Microsoft Word before
printing is done. Clicking "No" keeps Microsoft Word open and completes the
print job. However, Microsoft Word does not close upon completion of the
print job. Clicking "Yes" closes Microsoft Word and cancels the print job.
Additionally, another message box appears asking the user if the user would
like to save the document.

I wanted to know if I can disable or eliminate the printing message boxe?

Try disabling background printing.

Tools > Options > Print tab

Enjoy,
