Hi Ronny
No problems :-)
You can get online help for Word VBA, something like this: (I don't have
Word here to check the exact details): select Tools : Macro, select the
option that goes to the VBA editor, then click Help : Contents. That is, the
normal Help options give you VBA help (instead of normal Word help), when
you are in a "programming" context such as the VBA editor.
Another way I sometimes use, is to locate the corresponding HLP file (I
think from memory it's VBAWRD.HLP), and define a desktop shortcut to that
file. Then I can just double-click that shortcut, at any time, from any
context, to display that help.
A good source of extra information is the microsoft.public.word.*
newsgroups. You will get much more help on Word VBA there, compared to here.
You are working in an Access context, but you are really using Word VBA.
Another phenomenal source of information, is google groups. Go to
groups.google.com, select Advanced Search, type *word* into the Newsgroups
box, and leftindent into the "all words" box, and press return. Voila: 366
threads pertaining to Word leftindent!
Hope this all helps,
TC
