need code going from one dot to another dot.
Ok, I have 2 word templates, what I am trying to do is this..
One template opened as a "doc", and if a certain cell in the the table is answered "Yes"(dropdown box), then the code behind this certain cell is such...... If ActiveDocument.FormFields("DropDown1").result = "Yes" Then Documents.Add ("TemplateName.dot") End If this opens another "dot" as a "doc" so then it can be filled out, then when this document is filled completely, after the last cell, I would like to go back to the original document and start where I left off. Can anyone assist me with some code. If anyone would like to see the 2 "dots" I could send them. Any help would be appreciated..Bill |

Hi William,
The word.vba.beginners group would be more appropriate; this group really is for end-users. You are aware that macros trigger only when one exits or enters a form field? I'd probably use what you show below and add something along these lines Dim doc2 as Word.Document Dim myName as String myName = ActiveDocument.Name Set doc2 = Documents.Add("templateName.dot") doc2.Variables("StartDoc").Value = myName doc2.Activate 'Now the new document is in front Then, in the procedure that runs when the second document is finished, something like this Documents(ActiveDocument.Variables("StartDoc").Val ue).Activate Ok, I have 2 word templates, what I am trying to do is this..
