Hi Kn,
I have 4 paragraphs with specific wording. I would like to prompt the
user for the number of times they wish to copy and paste Paragraph 1,
Paragraph 2, etc. and then have the macro select, copy, and paste each
paragraph the specified number of times. I know I could manually copy
each paragraph to the clipboard and select each paragraph every time I
want to use that particular paragraph, but I'd like to find a more
elegant way to do this.
Well, the basic way to get something to happen "n" times is:
For i = 1 to CLng(InputBox("How many times to repeat?))
'Put the code to repeat here
Next
Note that, as it stands, this isn't full-proof. It will fail if someone
doesn't type a number, for example. If you need more help with this, you
should ask in the word.vba.beginners newsgroup. This group is more for
end-user questions :-9
