MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / January 2005Special character not recognized
ActiveDocument.Bookmark("mybookmark").Range.InsertAfter "text" where texts are texts that has special character created through Insert>Symbol>ShortcutKey method. How do I get around this problem? Hi, I don't think, that string variables or constants can hold any kind of formatting. What's wrong with copying and pasting? Greetings from Bavaria, Germany Helmut Weber, MVP "red.sys" & chr(64) & "t-online.de" Word XP, Win 98 http://word.mvps.org/ How is the weather in Bavaria? I am trying to produce a program to type different set ot text depening on which checkbox is clicked. For example: Userform1 has 2 check boxes cb1 rain cb2 sunny If cb1 is clicked, type "text1" where text is specially formated. If cb2 is clicked, type "text2" dito when I print I only want to print text1 or text2, but not both. If I were to use cut and paste as you suggested, I dont know where to have text1 or text2 to be stored temporarilly until cb1 or cb2 are clicked. Do you think there might be a special variable beside string variable that would hold special character format? > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Word XP, Win 98 > http://word.mvps.org/ Hi Quantum, it's minus 12 Celsius here and very sunny and we got lot's of snow. Another way would be to get the character number of a symbol. Lets say Wingdings 74 "Similie". You store the character number in your macro, or it's representiation in an ordinary font, like "J", insert it, and format it as "Wingdings". Like a smilie at the beginning of a doc. Dim r As Range Set r = Selection.Range r.Start = 0 r.End = 1 r.Text = "J" r.Font.Name = "Wingdings" Not that the letter currently there will be replaced by "J". But i am sure, you can handle that. I didn't get what that printing issue was.

That should have been Note (!) that the letter currently there will be replaced by "J". When I type text1 or text2 using special format on Document (ie not with vb editor) and then cut and paste it into vb editor, the editor act as if it does not understand the special format applied and translate it into nonrecognizeable words. > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Word XP, Win 98 > http://word.mvps.org/ If I cant find a way to have string to hold formated text, I am going to place these formated texts in recorded macros, which I will programatically trigger to run. I think this may be the only way. > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Word XP, Win 98 > http://word.mvps.org/
