Line spacing macro

[dvbrook]

I am attempting to add a button to a template that will allow users to
basically skip down a line from where there cursor is placed. Tnis will
allow inserting a new row for a table entry. The problem appears that since
there is not a reference statemend like "end" to go to the end of the
document, when the macro is initiated via a button, the cursor moves to the
area just under the buttons.

I have tried various statements to go to the end of the paragraph
(Selection.MoveEnd Unit:=wdParagraph), etc. in the macro, but nothing works I
have found.

The macro does work when it is activated by using the run command on the
tool bar, so I am confident it has something to do with the button click.

Interestingly, the other buttons for adding a new table and line item entry
to the table work fine, but those always default to the end of the document.
The base line space macro is as follows:

Private Sub LineSpc_Click()


Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1
End Sub

Note that the base command: Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1 works
when the macro is run from the toolbar and not the button.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,

Don

Try and use the .Range object rather than the .Selection object. Also,
buttons belong on toolbars, not in documents IMHO.
