Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this inquiry!!! I have a wealth of information to try out. The workstation where I was getting the error message has not been available to me for the last few days. As soon as I am able to get a few minutes on the specific problem computer, I will try...

When you say "put your worksheet in Design mode," are you aware I am using Word 2000? I thought worksheets were in Excel. In any event, I don't know how to go into Design mode. The way I attached the button to Word's Standard Toolbar is this: I right-click on the toolbar and choose...

It runs fine if I click Tools-Macro-Macros, choose the "PasteUnformatted" macro and click Run. However, when I attach it to a button, it will not run. The computer is a laptop with a docking station that its user plugs it into while at work. I am using it at work, and I have placed the macro...

I have written a macro in WordXP/Word2003 that simply does a Paste Special - Unformatted. This macro works fine; however, one of our users has Word 2000, and the macro causes an error on his computer. Can anyone tell me how to modify this macro to work on Word 2000: Sub PasteUnformatted()...

Oh, yes; I tried it, and it worked like a charm! I had to redefine some of my settings in Word (Tools/Options and AutoCorrect Options), but it fixed the problem. I am SO relieved! Thanks again, Moira.

Thanks very much, Moira! I searched the MS KnowledgeBase, but had no luck finding anything. You're a life-saver!

For some reason, my Track Changes settings in Word XP have changed so that deleted text appears in italics, rather than as "strikeout" text. Does anyone know how to change it back?

Is there a way to make the "default entry" in a Combo Box display the last item chosen from the Combo Box when it was last used?

I've noticed that whenever I exit Word XP now, Normal.dot (which appears to be open in the "background") appears for a split second just before Word closes. I was editing a template yesterday and thought that might have caused it. However, when I remove the edited template from my...

Thank you, finanl, for the wonderful tip! This is just what I needed to get the job done!

I have created a macro and assigned it to a toolbar. The macro allows me to copy into the active document (using the Organizer) all styles from a template (XYZ.dot) stored in the Word's Startup folder. The styles in XYZ.dot are based on that template's Normal style. However, when the styles...

Skip, this worked like a charm! (The reason it took me so long to respond to you is that I didn't receive an e-mail notification that a response had been made to my initial request. I just checked this thread manually today and was THRILLED to see you had replied.) Thanks so much for your...

I have recorded the keystrokes to: (i) insert a section break on next page, (ii) go into the first page header of the new section, (iii) unlink the header to the previous header, (iv) delete all text in current header, and (v) close the header. However, when I go to play back the macro, the new...

Here is an example of the code I used to copy a style from the FIRM.dot template to the active document: Dim strThisDocument As String strThisDocument = ActiveDocument.FullName With ActiveDocument .UpdateStylesOnOpen = False End With...

Is there a way to write VBA code for Word that will copy a style from one template to another (where the style is based on "Normal") without copying the font of the source's Normal style? In other words, I would like the copied style to be based on the target template's...

I am putting my page number in the document's footer (Footer style). After I base my Footer style on Normal and change the Normal style, I see that it has now changed the page number's font as well (although I did not think it had because it still displays in the Styles and Formatting pane as...

Okay; when I make sure that the Header and Footer styles are based on Normal, the font DOES change for these styles when I change the font in Normal. However, the Page Number style is based on the Default Paragraph Font, and when I attempt to click "Modify" to see what the Paragraph...

When I change Normal, the Header, Footer and Page Number styles do not change. There may be others that do not change, but those are the ones I am aware of. It would be very helpful if you could write a code that would run through all styles. I don't need it to change anything but the font...

Is there a way write VBA code in Word that will change the font for All styles of a document? Some of our users like to use the Times New Roman font for their documents, while others use Arial.

Thank you, muzz, for your assistance. I am a real novice in the realm of VBA programming, having had one class and little experience. After searching the Internet for DAYS to find my answer, I thought of Tek-Tips. You answer is EXACTLY what I needed! Sincerely, Fish
