Macro - Insert Pause in Customize Outline Numbered List?

[Shirley Hommel]

Hi,

I'm using Word 2000. Is it possible to insert a pause command so a user can
input info into the NUMBER FORMAT box?

I can write the macro so the window comes up and the cursor goes to the
NUMBER FORMAT field, but when I click the Pause button (while writing the
macro), nothing happens. It appears Pause is not an option when in this
window. I need the user to be able to change the number level before the dot
(i.e., if it's 9.1, they may need to change it to 2.1).

Thank you in advance for taking the time to reply.

Hi Shirley,
I think you got to use 2 macros or
a userform of kind vbmodeless containing
a button for continuing the macro.

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer! I'll look into your
suggestion.

Hi,

I'm afraid I still can't get the macro to PAUSE in this screen, allowing for
keyboard input from the user. Can someone suggest the VBA code which will
pause this screen to allow for keyboard input? After the input, I want to
resume the macro which would be nothing more than closing out all windows to
this feature (outline).

Any help would be extremely appreciated!

Thank you.

Shirley

Hi Shirely
To pause a macro and wait for user input, call a function that will show a
userform of type model. Untill the user provides the input your macro will be
suspended.

let me know if you need more input on this

Hope this is helpful.
