I have found several ways to gain access to other components in a document
though the visual basic built in programming language. But my issue is trying
to brand a document in such a way that when the user chooses an option from
the drop down menu the document will then be formatted to replace images
passed in by reference to a file location, and enable/disable text as
required.

What I can't figure out is a way to assign VB properties to a text box or
frame that contains text that can be formatted (bullets, fonts, bold etc).

Ex, is there a way to create a form object or text object that contains a
section (or numerous paragraphs) or text and a name be given to the frame or
text section.

That is, a button that could access the section in its' onclick() event and
adjust properties such as textSection.visible = false / true.

If this is not possible in any way, does anyone have other suggestions on
how this might be possible?

Cheers,

- Ryan

No idea what you think you're bumping since you didn't quote it, but note
that you have posted to an end user NG, where you are less likely to find
anyone who can help you with VBA, much less VB. Try posting to one of the
..word.vba NGs.

Hi ?B?Unlhbg==?=,

Take a look at the new Content Controls, and read up on them in the Word team's
blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/microsoft_office_word).
