Bullets and Numbering
Hi,
I am facing some problems in Word VBA. One is how can I change the Automatic Color from black to some other say green. Second one is : When you click on a Bulleted list and press Ctrl+D(Format-Font) it is showing font Times New Roman Color Black. But when I go to Format - Bullets and Numbering - Customize - Font, then it shows Font Times New Roman but the font color is not set. Which one is the true one. (Or If I want to check the font color, which one Should i consider?) -- Thanks and Regards, Renjith R Nair |

'Automatic' refers to the system default text color. It's not meant as an option in Word -- it's for users who want to use some other color for text on their computer, usually for vision impairment reasons. You CAN change it: right-click your desktop, select Properties Appearance. Select 'Window' from the Item list, then change the Font color. (No doubt there are API calls to the same effect). It changes LOTS of things, including the text in message boxes, and the default font color in ALL applications. Don't go there. No problem if this is your own computer; but in general it is considered ill-behaved for code to change system settings. Second one is : When you click on a Bulleted list and press Ctrl+D(Format-Font) it is showing font Times New Roman Color Black. But when I go to Format - Bullets and Numbering - Customize - Font, then it shows Font Times New Roman but the font color is not set. Which one is the true one. (Or If I want to check the font color, which one Should i consider?) The first is showing the font, color, size etc of the *text*. The second is showing the details of the *bullet*. These are independent. Eg you can have text in purple Times Roman (the first dialog), with a green Wingdings bullet (the second dialog). Any value showing as blank means either 'use the default' or 'your current selection includes more than one'. If you're making a lot of changes like this, it's better to define styles for the purpose than to modify the paragraphs manually. Rather than spend time waiting for answers from the forum, why not experiment? Make some changes and see that happens. |
