Word 2007 ..... a colleague has set up an Electronic Letter document that
shows our company logo and footer info (dont ask me how he has done this ...
too complicated for me !!) I have inserted relevant information into middle
of this document which happens to be our fax information. I want to add the
whole of this document onto the Quick Access Toolbar. Only way I can think
to do this is as a macro. However, when I record the macro the top and tail
of this doc (i.e. electronic letter bit) does not come out on macro. Does
anyone have any ideas? Is a macro the best way to add it to the Quick Access
Toolbar?

Many thanks

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

You don't need a macro; you need a template. Although

written for Word 2007, the principles are still the same.

You don't. You access the template from the New dialog, and you can add a
button for that to the QAT.

The New command provides access to the Office Button New command. Right
Click the QAT Customize the Quick Access Toolbar. New is in the Popular
group.

If you want the template itself on the QAT, you need a macro

Sub MyTemplate()
Documents.Add Template:="D:\Word 2007 Template Path\Templatename.dotm"
End Sub

http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm

substitute your template and path for that shown, then add the macro to the
QAT.

The one you want, though, is not New (which provides only Blank and Recent)
but New Document or Template.

Thanks for all your advice .... however, I cannot manage to put a template
onto the quick access toolbar - just cannot work it out !! Will have to go
round the houses and do it the old fashion way!!

Thanks anyway.

If you are trying to add a button that creates documents based on a
particular template, you will have to use a macro, attached to a button on
the QAT, as suggested by Graham earlier in this thread.
