Hi Michael,
Your original e-mail sounded very authoritative, but I think some of it was
just plain wrong.
For example, the sentence that I quoted said in part:
> almost any macro built around recorded menu movement and (in
> particular) keystroke menu item activation... is going to fall over
Recording a macro where you use the keyboard to operate the menus produces
identical code to a macro where you use the mouse.
Also, the code bears little relation to the menu structure. For instance, if
you record adding a bookmark, you get something like
"ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add", whereas the menu command is Insert>Bookmark.
How, in your experience, do you record a Word macro that depends on
keystroke menu activation?
Regards,
Craig
