I'm a relative newbie to VBA in Word, so please be patient.

I want to create a FAX template using a Word userform when the template is
started.

I assumed that I'd be able to enter the appropriate data into the userform and
once OK is clicked this data is sent across to Word Textboxes.

I'm using Word Textboxes as the template is bases upon our company's original
fax template. I only need to put the Word Textboxes in the appropriate places.

To make sure the right data is sent to the right Word Textbox I was going to
name each Word Textbox. This is where my little problem starts, as this is a
one-off operation I was going to do it manually, but I can't find anyway of
manually naming Word Textboxes.

Can somebody point me in the correct direction.

I'm using Word 2000. I refer to Word Textboxes as opposed to userform textBoxes.

TIA
Duncan

I would probably stick tags inside like [FIRST NAME] and so on so you
can id the text box that way using find and replace in the appropriate
storyrange.
