Word2003 Automation
I am trying to figure out if I can automate the process of linking form
letters with its corresponding type of header (Rexal Corp or International Compilink Inc). I would like to beable to click a button, or execute a keyboard shortcut and have the Header filled in appropriately. Thank you, Paul |

The simplest method is to create templates with the Headers already
completed. The user then opens a new document from the appropriate template to create the letter. Another option is to create templates with the Headers for the various options you need. In the Letter Template, have a series of macros in a drop down list or on separate tool buttons that copies the letter, opens a new blank from the selected template and pastes in the letter text. Alternatively, you can store a set of headers as AutoText/Building Blocks. Then in the Word document, have a set of macros that enters the select Headers in as appropriate. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "PA" wrote in message ...
