Macrofield

[Peter Lingo]

Hello
when I put a macrofield with text content in a document there is always a
space at the end of this field and if you make a font.StrikeThrough the line
is one character (the space) longer than the word. How can I avoid this?

Thanks Peter

But how can I make this by vba? Manual by keyboard it is possible.

Thanks

hi peter

Set oFld = 'the field you just inserted
oFld.Select
Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
ActiveWindow.View.ShowFieldCodes = True
Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
Selection.TypeBackspace
ActiveWindow.View.ShowFieldCodes = False
oFld.Update

Regards,
Chad
