I want to create a macro that pauses while I input information but I am not
good at using the Macro Editor.

See the following:

Blood pressure ??, pulse ??, respirations ??, weight ?? pounds, ?? per meter
squared.

Where "??" is where I want the macro to pause. Just tell me how to complete
it:

I am doing the following: CTRL-Home (to go to top), CTRL-F (to initiate
find), ?? (to put "??" as the search) then F2 to find....

now I'm stuck. How do I pause the macro, enter the information I want in my
document, and then tell the macro to go on? If I can create this right from
the document screen, that would help. Thanks! You all are geniuses if you
can figure this one out! diane g

You don't need a macro; you need a UserForm. See
