Hello Troy.
It sounds like you need to create a word template for a preformed report
with everything there except the patient's name and any other unknown
variables. Then I would create a form for the variables like patient's
name, patient's age, patient's birthday, medicines or any other unknown
variables. I know it will be a lot of work in the short-term, but I believe
it will save you time in the long term.
I hope this helps.
Chris.

Subject: Could a macro be used to automate this?
Hi All,
Before I start typing one of the reports for my new job every day I have to
pull up the form in MSWord by navigating to it on my desktop and hitting
enter, then once the form is on the screen I have to hit alt-v, then Windows
key-H, then tab, and right arrow once and up arrow once before I type the
patient name, then I down arrow once and type the date, then I down arrow
once more which takes me out of the heading and I hit alt-c before starting
to actually type the body of the report. Can I set up a macro to do all of
the key strokes up to the point where I type the patient name and if so can
somebody give me instructions on doing this? I usually type about 8-10
reports per day and doing all of these key strokes that many times in one
day can get monotonous and a little time-consuming.
Thanks.
Troy
