[WSR]

I'd like to create a one key short-cut key that allows me to "Paste Special"
/ "Picture (Enhanced Metafile") since I use that feature a lot.

Any guidance/assistance is appreciated

You can use Ctrl+Alt+V to display the Paste Special dialog box.

Record a macro and assign it to a shortcut key of your choosing.

My question regarding the macro is how do I make it "generic" so that it's
pasting what ever object I cut?

When I try to record the macro from a blank sheet, the paste button is
greyed out.

What I don't what the macro to do is Paste Special / Picture the same object
over and over again.

I want it to Paste Special the last object on the clipboard.

If this makes any sense.

Terry:

Yes, I have a such a macro, revised in 2004 or thereabouts, although I have
it assigned to a button not a shortcut. Here's the code

Sub Pastegraphic()
'
' Pastegraphic Macro
' Macro recorded 01/26/00
'

Selection.PasteSpecial Link:=False, DataType:=wdPasteMetafilePicture, _
Placement:=wdInLine, DisplayAsIcon:=False
Selection.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("graphic")
End Sub

If you don't want to assign a style, comment out the line beginning
"Selection.Style".
The one I recorded for paste text is assigned to a shortcut. There is a
problem with recording certain actions in W2007. It will not record the
actions to delete tracked formatting changes, for example. (Yes, I know, no
longer as necessary.) But the recorded macro in an attached W2003 (dot.) add-
in runs just fine in W2007.

Regards,
PamC

First copy an image. Then turn on the macro recorder, and go to it. You need
to record the steps for pasting an image that is already in memory (the
clipboard).

I meant _accept_ track formatting changes.

What I want to do is cut from another application and paste special as a
picture (enhanced metafile) format.

When I record the macro as you describe, the cut some cells from an Excel
file the result in the Word file is a table, not a picture.

Any ideas with my macro?

Here's the VB

Sub PasteSpecialPicture()
'
' PasteSpecialPicture Macro
'
'
Selection.PasteSpecial (wdPasteEnhancedMetafile)
End Sub


Thanks 8^

I'm a macro recorder, not a macro writer. I can read them well enough to
figure out what they do but that's about it. Does your macro work on Word
text? If not, perhaps you should record it again. I just tried mine on an
excel sheet (I'm using W2007 right now), and it worked. So you could try
using mine€”taking out the style line if you don't want that.

I'm glad it worked. It took a bit of detective work to figure out, since the
macro recorder recorded paste special as PasteAndFormat, instead.
