I am currently programming using the Visual Basic Editor in MS Word. I recorded several macros so just so I can insert the SEQ numbering on a paragraph.

However, I need to know how I can find the returned value of the current cursor position because I search for the section mark first and I want the cursor to return to the line that I first clicked on before inserting the SEQ num.

Is this possible? Please help me. I need this badly.

Thank you very much!

noto sure on cursor postion, maybe be look at the goto doobrie in word but...

heres another way when you start your code add in a book mark and then when you finished just go back to that bookmark

Sub Bob()

Dim x

x = Selection.Bookmarks.Add("TEMP")


End Sub

Sub gotobob()

ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("TEMP").Select


End Sub
 
Thanks! :> That is very helpful. I hope you don't mind another question, when you do this, we need to refresh the system into removing the bookmark so that the next time I click on another line in word, it's going to replace it with that.

Thanks again! :)
