Could anyone tell me what the code would be for undo. I can only record
macros and put in bits of code that I know. I want a macro to copy selected
text change it to upper case so that I can switch documents and paste, but I
want the text I have changed to upper case to revert back and the macro
record will not let me undo the changes, so could anyone give me the line of
code please. I would be very grateful for some help.

Hi Margaret,

Try:
Application.Undo

For future reference, Word's VBE Help file is a good place to look for pointers on whatever you might want to (un)do.

Cheers

Thanks for your reply, but it does not work, it highlights the Undo when you
go into the macro.

Try ActiveDocument.Undo instead.
