Word should let you select/delete page ranges (using a dialog)?
I frequently work with large documents (250+ pages).
Selecting a large number of pages for copying/deletion is time consuming: you have to just scroll through them all. Maybe a dialog box would make this easier? ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Word should let you select/delete page ranges (using a dialog)?
Word is not a page based application. There is no such thing as a Word
'page' per se. A page is a collection of elements and the content in the text layer is affected by a variety of factors, not least of which is the printer driver. Selection of a range of pages for deletion is possible, but is unpredictable because of the presence of sections and headers etc, so removal of such a range may not give you the results you anticipate. However, you could try the following macro which will be as close as you can reasonably get: Sub PageDelete() sNumber = InputBox("Delete from which page", "Delete Pages", 1) sRange = InputBox("Delete how many pages", "Delete Pages", 1) Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:=sNumber For a = 1 To sRange ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\page").Range.Delete Next a 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 zrenneh wrote: I frequently work with large documents (250+ pages).
