button to add row etc
I keep a Word table that tracks ongoing project information. The table
rows consists of "add to monthly", "initiative/project", "date" and "note" I use alternate coloring to make the table easier to read. In the "add to monthly" cell I have a check box, if checked I add this row to the monthly report and/or the bi-weekly project meetings. I would like to automate the following processes. 1. Have a button to create a new item that would a. add new row to end of table b. insert a checkbox in the first cell c. Choose color a or b d. add the current date to the "date" cell (this date should not change once entered) 2. When I check the rows to be added to the monthly report, have a process that extracts the checked rows to a new document. Thank you |

Choose the group most appropriate to your problem and level of macro skills. To get you started, record the basic steps for (1) in a macro and copy this into your message. This will give those who will *help you write your own macro* an idea of what it is you want (type of checkbox you mean, where the color is coming from, etc.).
