Position Text At Vertical Position

[RH610]

Is there a way (in VBA code) to position text at an exact vertical position? Here is the situation. I will be entering text starting from some point near the top of the page. The amount of text will be variable every time I run the code. Thus the text will end at various points on the page. I the want to put a different piece of text starting exactly at the 9 inch mark on the page. I just don't know how to get the cursor to the 9" point on the page.

Thank You

Hi RH610,

As far as I know there is no way to precisely position text vertically on the page. What you can do is to use tables.

Create a single celled table (without borders) at the top of your page, sized and positioned (exactly where will depend on your page headers) so that the first line of text below it is 9" down. Then enter your beginning text in that cell and your later text outside it. There are other variations on the theme but that should get you started.

Enjoy,
Tony
