From: terilad on 17 May 2010 05:24 Hi, Can anyone tell me how to copy text from a form in word 2003 so as I can paste the text to another file, I can't select any text as it's in a form so I have created a command button to copy text to clipboard but can someone help with a macro to attach to the button to copy all text in document. Regards Mark
From: Stefan Blom on 17 May 2010 06:18 If you are trying to copy an entire form, using the Insert File dialog box will be the easiest solution. Create a new document. Click Insert | File. Locate the protected document and click it. Then click the Insert button. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "terilad" <terilad(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B4F0C1AE-2FAF-4B79-B30C-09B7751D29CF(a)microsoft.com... > Hi, > > Can anyone tell me how to copy text from a form in word 2003 so as I can > paste the text to another file, I can't select any text as it's in a form so > I have created a command button to copy text to clipboard but can someone > help with a macro to attach to the button to copy all text in document. > > Regards > > > Mark
From: Graham Mayor on 18 May 2010 00:29 While Stefan's suggestion is certainly viable, what's the point of this exercise? If you want to create a new form to fill then a better option would be to save the form as a template and create new documents from it. If you want to extract data from the form then see http://www.gmayor.com/ExtractDataFromForms.htm -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "terilad" <terilad(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B4F0C1AE-2FAF-4B79-B30C-09B7751D29CF(a)microsoft.com... > Hi, > > Can anyone tell me how to copy text from a form in word 2003 so as I can > paste the text to another file, I can't select any text as it's in a form > so > I have created a command button to copy text to clipboard but can someone > help with a macro to attach to the button to copy all text in document. > > Regards > > > Mark
