Sam, thank you very much!

I assume the files do go somewhere before they are deleted, and I assume they are copied. It might work to simply move them instead of copying them. Another possibility is to use removable media, and then the documents can exist only in the removable media. At the end of the day, remove the media and send to wherever the data is destined for. There are some wonderful technologies currently available, such as Flash Drives and USB drives. We can now have a GB of data stored in a device that is about the size of a postage stamp; the same type of thing used in Cell phones and cameras for their memory. However for those (Compact Flash cards) we need a reader/writer, but those are cheap. A USB drive is about the size of a thumb and plugs directly into a USB port. One place to look for good deals on things like that is: http://rasputinj.com "Teri D MT" wrote in message ... Hello! I am trying to help some of my coworkers learn to use Word. Since we type medical info, we are not allowed to keep patient information on our computers (we work at home for a hospital). I would like to make a macro that we could run that would automatically find and delete all the dictation that we typed that day so that it will not stay in our computers. I myself of course know how to delete files manually, but some of the newer users are petrified of trying anything, so I'd like to make them a macro to do it for them until they get a little more used to Word. Thank you for any help. -- Teri D MT |
