Object coordinates in word
Hi,
This is somewhat related to my post in VBA group, but I thought I would take a step back and first try to understand as to how I would do the following manually and then get on to automating it. I want to paste a particular chart in a specific position within word (the way one can do in Powerpoint). First of all, in word do we have the concept of coordinates for each object? I see that If I have 2 Textbox side by side in a page and If I keep my cursor anywhere inside the first textbox (Left textbox) one of them then the bottom information bar displays the following:- a) Page 10, Sec 6 , 10/54, At 7.4" Col 1 On the other hand, If I keep my cursor inside anywhere in the second text box (right TB) then I get the following info:- b) Page 10, Sec 6 , 10/54, At 6.9" Col 4 I want to understand as to what is meant by At 7.4". Can one navigate to let' say At 8.5" , the way one can navgate to a certain page using Ctrl + G? I have also looked at Right click object -- Format object -- Layout (In front of Text) -- Advanced -- Picture position -- Absolute position to right of Page and Absloute position .... below page, but am not sure as to whether this will solve my problem. Because, I would need to navigate to that particular coordinate before I paste my object and I dont how to navigate to a particular absolute position in word Please guide me. Regards, HP India |
