Default Get selection format

Hi,

I am writing a long document and I am using over and over specific formating for each sections. I thought of writing macro and adding them to hotkey to quickly format my text the way I want.

The thing is I am unable to know exactly how my text string is formated. My text string consist of a numbered bullet with specific first line indent and left indent.

Is there a way to debug.print the format attributes of a selected text string?

(I.E. font,bold,bullet,disposition,etc...)

Thank you for your help and time.

Default Get selection format

Since you are re-using text formatting, a paragraph or character style should
work. For general information on using styles in Word, see

For information on numbered styles, see
