Perhaps I am > > misunderstanding.- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text - I hear what you are saying but how would I automate it. For instance the client will click Insert, Cross Reference (leave the options under paragraph number) then click on the relevant paragraph number. They then have to change the options to paragraph text and click on the main clause. I would like to write a macro where when they click on insert cross reference and they choose 1.1 for instance it would automatically then insert 1.1 then a bracket [then automatically the heading of the main clase]. Or perhaps I can write an entire new form to replace the cross reference screen so that the question is asked which clause do you want to refer to and then the macro will do all the work. |
