    Need help with macro to modify tabstops in Word 2003 documents

    Macropod, Thank you for the tip. I guess I didn't explain it all very well. We do use templates. The amendments are based on the bill style as they become part of the bill which becomes statute and there is a whole book on how they have to be formatted. The amendment is also incorporated in...

    Need help with macro to modify tabstops in Word 2003 documents

    Skip, I think the position/2 is going to help. I didn't think I could use that without inchestopoints, which required a value, and it wouldn't let me create an array of inchestopoints and assign it an integer value. The msgbox would probably work as well, but they don't have time for that...

    Need help with macro to modify tabstops in Word 2003 documents

    My users create journals that are 5.5" x 8.5" (2 up folded). They frequently have to incorporate amendments into the journal that come to them formatted for 8.5" x 11" paper, have multiple indents, tabs, columns etc. No two are formatted precisely the same and most contain custom tabs. I need to...
