Interestingly, Text Effects is still available in the Object Model even though it was removed from the dialog box in Word 2007 so if someone really wants to give someone convulsions with a document that shimmers or blinks they can. Personally, I'm all for its complete removal. grin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Melton What is a Microsoft MVP? http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/gp/mvpfaqs Guides for the Office 2007 Interface: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/tr...295841033.aspx |

how do I apply las vegas text effect
Hi Beth,
I found it interesting that they could animate the text in Word but not GIFs I received a document with a table showing sales and profits, where all of the negative numbers were formatted with the marching red ants effect. If you bring into Word 2007 a document or template that has a style or text that includes the text effects, the ants can continue to march in Word 2007 as well I assumed that since it still works via old documents that it would be possible to use VBA to 'add a feature' to Word for it. The Office Open XML document model includes the text effect features, along with a whole lot of pages to document each of the pre-existing 170+ border-art types in Word, but they didn't include in that spec the ability to use your own pictures still. But if you add a global template via Alt, T, I a Word 2003 template that has a custom toolbar with character styles to apply the text effects, the styles will appear in the Add-ins tab but won't work due to the way style travel vs toolbars, but if you create a document from a template or a .docm file that has those styles in it the toolbar will work as well as it can find the styles ============ "Beth Melton" wrote in message ...
