Hiya,

I'm creating some Word fax and letter templates. I'm finding that the
insertion point is not in the place I want it. I've tried editing the
template and moving the insertion point, but it won't work. I even
tried creating a macro, which seemed to work in one of the templates,
but hasn't in the others, so I must be doing something wrong.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Create a Bookmark in the Template where you want the insertion point. In the
OnOpen event write (VBA) 'Bookmark'.setfocus.

Hi Mike

Sorry I just need to clarify what needs to be done.
Do I press Alt F11 to get me into the VB Editor, then type: (VBA)
'Bookmark'.setfocus. ?
This is what I've done & it hasn't worked.
Although I wasn't sure where the OnOpen event was, so I just typed
directly into the window that appeared at the bottom of the VB area,
then saved it.

Some VBA programming experience will be required to write VBA.

1. Create a Bookmark (i.e. bmkTest)
2. Paste VBA into Document_Open event

Private Sub Document_Open()
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("bmkTest").Select
End Sub
