I have a repetitive task on each title. I think it is better to write a Macro
for it and perform the macro over each title. I have the Excel experience and I thought by selecting Macro, I will perform steps inside word and word will automatically record them in Macro in background. Apparently this excel procedure does not apply to word. Is there any way to activate this procedure for Word as well? Otherwise it will be very difficult for me to write the Macro from scratch in Word.Word 2003 SP2 -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan |

I want to do:
Alt o-p, remove a tik mark (Adjust characters to grid line when number of lines are fixed in one page) change the space for after paragraph to 0.5 closes the window. I have many titles, which I want to apply above changes. So the ideal is that I put curser in target line and hit the short cut key for my Macro and it performs those two changes. -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan "Graham Mayor" wrote: Tools Macro Record New Macro will activate the macro recorder, but not all functions are recordable.

This sounds like changes to Japanese script which I cannot help you with,
however, couldn't you just create a paragraph style with the layout you require and apply it as required? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Khoshravan wrote: I want to do: Alt o-p, remove a tik mark (Adjust characters to grid line when number of lines are fixed in one page) change the space for after paragraph to 0.5 closes the window.

How do you know that I am working with Japanese scripts? Are that command
specially for Japanese scripts? Yes you are right. I can define a style and apply. I wanted to learn VBA as well. For VBA, I read Bill Coan article whish sounds simple and stright forward but I don't know how to apply in diffenet locations (paragraphs) -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan "Graham Mayor" wrote: This sounds like changes to Japanese script which I cannot help you with, however, couldn't you just create a paragraph style with the layout you require and apply it as required? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Khoshravan wrote: I want to do: Alt o-p, remove a tik mark (Adjust characters to grid line when number of lines are fixed in one page) change the space for after paragraph to 0.5 closes the window.

Hi Koshravan
Khoshravan wrote: How do you know that I am working with Japanese scripts? Are that command specially for Japanese scripts? The "Adjust characters to grid line" is not something I've seen before, I would've guessed some Asian language. Yes you are right. I can define a style and apply. I wanted to learn VBA as well. For VBA, I read Bill Coan article whish sounds simple and stright forward but I don't know how to apply in diffenet locations (paragraphs) If you intend to "walk" through the document manually and apply the formatting, then a style seems really called for. You can then assign a keyboard shortcut to it and no macro is needed. If you can identify all paragraphs that are "headings" somewhat formally, then you can use Find | Replace to search for them and apply the style. You may or may not use a macro for that, too.

The fact that you are an engineer from Osaka was a clue - as was adjusting characters to grid line ![]() Yes you are right. I can define a style and apply. I wanted to learn VBA as well. For VBA, I read Bill Coan article whish sounds simple and stright forward but I don't know how to apply in diffenet locations (paragraphs) You dont really need a macro to apply a style - assign a keyboard shortcut to the style. Put your cusror in the paragraph and hit the keyboard shortcut. If you want to apply a style by macro (and correct for any manual formatting) then you could use the following code: Selection.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("Heading 1") Selection.Font.Reset Select the text and run the macro: See 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 This sounds like changes to Japanese script which I cannot help you with, however, couldn't you just create a paragraph style with the layout you require and apply it as required? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Khoshravan wrote: I want to do: Alt o-p, remove a tik mark (Adjust characters to grid line when number of lines are fixed in one page) change the space for after paragraph to 0.5 closes the window.

You still are not getting it, are you? Did you not notice that this same
person had posted this same answer to dozens of different unrelated posts?

Well, you could expand it as "sorely out of luck." That would be more
polite. In truth, it stands for "sh*t out of luck." -- Suzanne S.

You need to be very careful about downloading stuff from internet spammers.
It may or may not contain a virus or spyware. I don't know because there is no way on earth that I would access such rubbish. Hopefully you are running with up to date anti-virus protection (if not do so NOW!!!) which should have picked up any viral contribution from the software, but some Word macros can be malicious in effrect without being a virus, so until you know what you are doing and what this software really is, consider it harmful and avoid like the plague! -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Khoshravan wrote: Do you think what I downloaded has virus?
