Unique ID to WORD2007 sections
in [Word VBA]
|
From: Ganish on 4 Apr 2010 10:15 Hello, I am using WORD2007 to create large requirements documents. I have to allow the documents users fixed ID to every requirement. The section numbers will change whenever I edit the documents (and they are changed, and changed, and changed...) so I have to add a macro, or VBA application, that will allocate a unique ID from an up-counter whenever i activate it. The order of the sequence is not mandatory, but it is important that the numbers will no repeast, even if a number is deleted. can anyone help in this? regards Ganish

How about appending a savedate field to what ever the number is? -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

From: Ganish on 5 Apr 2010 09:24 Doug, thanks. Actually, it should apear in the section header (for instance: 3.2.4 High Frequency Attenuation @@R15@@ Where: 3.2.4 - WORD automated number High frequency Attenuation - paragraph header @@R0015@@ - example for the paragraph UID. Time stamp can be a great idea. How can I create a macro that will place it in predefined format?

From: Doug Robbins - Word MVP on 5 Apr 2010 18:01 Assuming that these are individual documents, you could just use a { savedate \@ "yyyymmdd-hh:MM:ss" } field with a formatting switch -- Hope this helps.
