Advanced MS Word Template Design Question: Version 2
Greetings!
This project orginally started here just over 2 years ago. I got it to work, but it was never implemented. Advanced MS Word Template Design Question: Image swap http://groups.google.com/group/micro...docmanagement/ browse_thread/thread/c1d0485da7d1c735?hl=en%3Fhl%3Den&fwc=2 (linebreak added manually) Now we need to move forward on it. There are changes to the way it will work so iI just wnat to confirm a few things before starting and add some additional info. 1) To simplify things, we want to create a tool bar of commands.Should not be a big deal -- we'd be running the macros from the tool bar instead of double-clicking on objects in the actual document, 2) They macros need to change the state of objects in the document and also know which state the object is in so that it is the same buttom to toggle the state change. I think a and b are virutally identical in terms of functionality, they just do different things. a) On or Off: i.e. fill in a check box or unfill a check box b) Hide an object/series of objects or unhide and object/series of objects (i.e. 3 images in header and footer) 3) I assume that it would be built in a similar way to the previous thread (above) -- but that the button bar would toggle the state change. However, this would require me, I assume to NAME the objects so that I can toggle them from the button bar. I tried to look at the previous code i created, but since it was so long ago, I can see the VBA, but not the actual field info to edit it. I remember that the VBA changed the state of the image, but it also swaped the field code information so that when clicked again it would perform the opposite function. Also, I am not a VBA programmer, but I do have script experience with other languages. Other Issues: 1) We use some Office 2000, some XP and some 2004 for Mac. It needs to work on all of them. The locking function was an issue for older versions -- so we could not lock the macros down. 2) The .DOT does not seem to work when we save it -- i.e. it will not let us save as a document, it requires to save a s a.DOT. 3) We want to store the templates on a network drive and have people use them each time to create a new document. thank you in advance, jg |

Attention! Duplicate posting in word.vba.general newsgroup.
As the questions are macro-related, that will be the better venue to pursue the discussion. Cindy Meister |
