Inserting text at a specific point via VBA?

[waddsn1060]

I am trying to enter a name into set locations in my document. The
document has [Insert Name Here] blocking the location out. I want to
insert the name there, then have the document adjust the spacing in
that area so there is not a large blank space if the name is short.

Thanks!

Use a Macrobutton field in your template.

Type:

MacroButton NoMacro "Insert name here"

Select it and press CTRL+F9

Save the template and open a document based on that template:

Click on "Insert name here" and type the name.

to appear more than once.

Im assuming the spacing would adjust for the new text, correct?
