Changing the order of pages in a document
Is there a quick way of changing the order of pages in a document. For
example, if I have a 10 page document and I want page 8 to now be page 1 and page 6 to be page 2 etc. Thanks in advance for your help. Best regards, Dee |

Best regards, Dee If each page starts with a heading, all of them at the same level, then you can switch to Outline view and collapse the view to that heading level. Then you can drag a heading to a new position, and all the material under that heading will be moved with it. If your document doesn't meet that condition, the best you can do is to select the page contents, cut to the clipboard, and paste it at the new location. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

Changing the order of pages in a document
Word is not a page layout application and so the 'pages' of a document are
transient and made up of several independent elements. Depending on what the pages contain, you *may* find the following macro will work for you (and don't forget CTRL+Z will undo mistakes!) Sub PageMove() sNumber = InputBox("Move to location before which page?", "Move Page", 1) ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\page").Range.Cut Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:=sNumber Selection.Paste End Sub http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Dee wrote: Is there a quick way of changing the order of pages in a document.

Changing the order of pages in a document
As has already been said, Word doesn't really have a 'page' unit and if you
do move a complete page you may find text reflowed so that it isn't a 'page' any more. But if your pages are delimited in such a way as to prevent this then you may find it worth zooming out so you can see all your pages at once and then selecting complete pages and clicking and dragging them where you want them to be. -- Enjoy, Tony "Dee" wrote in message ...
