Need help with my word doc
Hi,
I need help in my word doc :-( every time I add VB button to generate date and time or just use clear button to clear some fields it will work for the 1st time but when I save the doc and exit and come back again all of my buttons will NOT work? Any Idea on how I can keep it working? Thx, Ana |

Consider using fields in templates for your dates. If you need to use
macros, put them in the template (rather than normal.dot) and assign custom toolbar custom buttons to the macros rather than ActiveX controls. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Thank you Charles. I didn't use macro what i did is adding this code for
the buttons: ========================================= Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Label1.Caption = Format(Now, "General Date") End Sub Private Sub CommandButton11_Click() End Sub Private Sub CommandButton2_Click() Label1.Caption = " " End Sub Private Sub Label1_Click() End Sub ============================================= All works but after I close the doc and reopen it the code didn't work :-( Thx for your help -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |

These are (nonfunctional) macros. Code = macro. Your document will trigger
macro alerts or security. Consider whether fields will meet your needs rather than command buttons. See http://addbalance.com/word/datefields1.htm for information on the different kinds of datefields and how to format them. See http://addbalance.com/word/datefields2.htm for information on the different kinds of ways to make a date calculation work. It includes links to pages with fields and an explanation of different macros that can be used instead of fields. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Ana,
You are in over both of our heads. Again, look into using fields if you don't understand vba. See http://addbalance.com/word/datefields2.htm for information on the different kinds of ways to make a date calculation work. It includes links to pages with fields and an explanation of different macros that can be used instead of fields. Your code may be being stored somewhere else and not saved when you save your document. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
