Hey all,

I got started with VBA using MS Access. I'm now trying to learn to apply
it to Word. At this point, I'm not even sure of what events there are,
besides open, close, and new, that I can use to trigger my code. I have
no idea how to use form controls, etc. Anyone have any suggestions (and
I'm sure you do) of what I could read to get me started?

Thanks

Well, in order to use VB for Word at all, you first have to
include a "reference lick" to the "Word 10" objects via
TOOLS in vB. Once you've added that reference, all the Word
objects become available to your vB code.

Try the object browser (You can get there by opening word, creating a macro
and pressing F4). That's how I got started when I first used VBA! The same
functions will be available in VB when you reference the word library.

Excellent! Thanks Jay and fdde. Dennis, I appreciate your help too, but
I'd appreciate it more if you could explain what you actually said. :)
