Can "Comment" be added to mouse right-click menu in WORD?
When editing a document in WORD, rather than going to the INSERT menu to
place a COMMENT in same, it would be convenient to be able to right-click on the mouse and have COMMENT be one of the options. Can COMMENT be added to the right-click pull-down menu within a given document? I currently use WORD 2003. |

Yes! It's a littlr more involved than your average customization, but yes.
Select Tools Customize from the Menu On the Toolbar tab, scroll down and check "Shortcut Menus" - this will add a small toolbar to your window. Switch to the Commands tab and select "Insert" from the categories list on the right, then scroll down th elist on the right to find Comment Click and drag "Comment" and hover over "Text" on the Shortcut Menu Bar you added - a long popup will open Still dragging go and hover over Text in the popup menu and the normal right click menu will popup Keep dragging and drop "Comment" where you want it in thi smenu. Close the Customize dialog -- Enjoy, Tony "JJPARKER_ONLINE" wrote in message ...

The customization interface has been removed but it can still be done via
VBA. Press Alt+F11 to open the VBE Press Ctrl+G to go to the Immediate Window Type (or cut and paste) this: CommandBars("Text").Controls.Add Type:=msoControlButton, ID:=1589, Befo=6 (the befo=6 is the position to put it in) Press Enter Press Alt+F11 to close the VBE -- Enjoy, Tony "Ade" wrote in message ...

I don't know of a list but you can build your own with something like ..
On Error Resume next For i = 1 To 1000 ' or whatever Selection.TypeText i & vbTab & CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=i).Caption Selection.TypeParagraph Next i This should work but you will probably want to tidy it up and add better error handling. -- Enjoy, Tony "Ade" wrote in message ...

Is there a way to add "paste special" to the right-click menu as well as
comment? The comment works great! Thanks Tony "Tony Jollans" wrote: I don't know of a list but you can build your own with something like ..

Can "Comment" be added to mouse right-click menu in WORD?
I used this code to add "Underline" to the context menu:
CommandBars("Text").Controls.Add Type:=msoControlButton, ID:=115, Befo=2 It worked a treat. Only problem: I ran it about 7 times before I realised it was adding the control to my Normal template and not the document I had opened. Now I have 6 instances of the control that I'd like to get rid of. There doesn't seem to be an equivalent "Delete" or "Remove" function, and don't just want to hide them. Any suggestions please.
