How do I add text to Word without it showing on hardcopy?
My boss is trying to set up a document where an Instruction is visible to all
Users, but it isn't meant to show on 'hardcopy' and we don't want to use 'hidden text'. Any suggestions?? Regards Sal of Brisbane, Qld |

Another option would be to put the instruction text into a textbox in the
graphical layer, and to instruct Word not to include "drawings" created in Word. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "ringnecknuts" wrote in message ...

Another possibility is to use a pop-up message box on opening/creating the
document from macros in the document template (not normal.dot!) eg Sub AutoNew() Dim sMsg As String Dim sVer As Integer sMsg = "This is the user instruction" sVer = Application.Version If sVer 12 Then Assistant.On = True Set Balloon = Assistant.NewBalloon With Balloon .Text = sMsg .Button = msoButtonSetOK .Animation = msoAnimationBeginSpeaking .Show End With Else MsgBox sMsg End If End Sub Sub AutoOpen() Dim sMsg As String Dim sVer As Integer sMsg = "This is the user instruction" sVer = Application.Version If sVer 12 Then Assistant.On = True Set Balloon = Assistant.NewBalloon With Balloon .Text = sMsg .Button = msoButtonSetOK .Animation = msoAnimationBeginSpeaking .Show End With Else MsgBox sMsg End If 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 ringnecknuts wrote: My boss is trying to set up a document where an Instruction is visible to all Users, but it isn't meant to show on 'hardcopy' and we don't want to use 'hidden text'.

Hi Ringneck,
To see how to do this, check out my Date Calc 'tutorial', at: http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/show...?Number=249902 or http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm#Third_party In particular, look at the item titled 'Show or hide instructions & graphics at print time'. Do read the document's introductory material. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "ringnecknuts" wrote in message ...
