[mso] Macro for Dropped Cap in Word 2002?

To All,
How to combine two macros into one?
In Word 2002, I created two separate macros that specify exactly the effect I
want. When I combine the two macros into one, I get several extra blank lines
in my document. The combined macro is included below my signature.
In use, I highlight the first letter of a paragraph then run this macro. It
forms a dropped capital using that initial letter, then it formats the letter
to appear in a shade of gray with a shadow effect. I'd like it to do only
that, however, the macro also adds several blank lines above the paragraph.
Please tell me how to modify two macros to avoid the extra lines.
Thank you,
Ray Shapp
