Assign macro to a clip art picture
Ihave created a macro in a word document which I would like users to activate
by clicking on aclip-art picture I have inserted. I know there is an option of 'assign macro' in Excel, but can only see 'hyperlink' in Word, and I don't know how to hyperlink to a macro. No instructions in Word help. Can anyone tell me how? |

Assign macro to a clip art picture
You can use your picture as the "prompt" for a MacroButton field (which will
require a double-click). The purpose of a MacroButton field is to run the designated macro. -- Suzanne S.

Insert a MacroButton field as described in http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...acroButton.htm. Use the clip art in place of the display text inside the field code -- that is, replace the [Double-click here to run macro] part with the picture. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

Assign macro to a clip art picture (in a form)
OK Thanks - got that working. But I have a further complication now! I have
created the document as a form. When I 'lock' the form, the macro does not work! How do I put all of that in a form field? "Suzanne S.
