Formatting in endnote to text macro?

D

David Clough

I've just come across a Word macro Doug Robbins posted on Google Groups
some time back to convert endnotes to text (below). I'm grateful for
this, which will be useful as I and a co-author have a lot of endnotes
to convert before submitting a book.

When I run it, however, I lose all the formatting in my endnotes, which
is a problem for all the italicized book titles in my notes. Is there
any way to retain this formatting?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Yours,

David.

The following modified code should preserve the formatting:

Dim aendnote As Endnote
For Each aendnote In ActiveDocument.Endnotes
ActiveDocument.Range.InsertAfter vbCr & aendnote.Index & vbTab &
aendnote.Range.FormattedText
aendnote.Reference.InsertBefore "a" & aendnote.Index & "a"
Next aendnote
For Each aendnote In ActiveDocument.Endnotes
aendnote.Reference.Delete
Next aendnote
Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
Selection.Find.replacement.ClearFormatting
With Selection.Find.replacement.Font
.Superscript = True
End With
With Selection.Find
.Text = "(a)([0-9]{1,})(a)"
.replacement.Text = "\2"
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Format = True
.MatchWildcards = True
End With
Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

Dear Doug,

many thanks for this rapid response. I'm not finding that the change
makes any difference, though: I'm still losing my italics for some
reason.

Yours,

David.

Hi David,

Seems like it is necessary to do it as follows:

Dim aendnote As Endnote
Dim arange As Range
Dim trange As Range
For Each aendnote In ActiveDocument.Endnotes
Set arange = aendnote.Range.FormattedText
arange.Copy
ActiveDocument.Range.InsertAfter vbCr
Set trange = ActiveDocument.Range
trange.Start = trange.End
trange.Paste
aendnote.Reference.InsertBefore "a" & aendnote.Index & "a"
Next aendnote
For Each aendnote In ActiveDocument.Endnotes
aendnote.Reference.Delete
Next aendnote
Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
Selection.Find.replacement.ClearFormatting
With Selection.Find.replacement.Font
.Superscript = True
End With
With Selection.Find
.Text = "(a)([0-9]{1,})(a)"
.replacement.Text = "\2"
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Format = True
.MatchWildcards = True
End With
Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
