Then apply the appropriate styles where needed. Why don't you just modify the heading styles as required. I don't follow what you are trying to do with the document and the macro. In the Format for Paragraph, Spacing is set for Size " 14", " Bold" is Highlighted, "Italic & Underscore " is Not Highlighted How do I change this so the formatting in the Modify Style, Selection.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("Heading 2")ĪctiveDocument.Close SaveChanges:=wdSaveChanges Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdLine, Extend:=wdExtend Thus, things like paper size, margins, header and footer locations, and orientationĪ FileName:=JName Here is the macro I had found on the web and currently using: Hope you all can help out this old man, retired for many years. Word mainly just changes the Heading format to be an Italic. but Word 2010 will change the formatting to something else from the macro that it running. They will have Heading 3.I have a lot of recipes and now going back over them and changing all formatting to just one format. So Mars is Heading 2.Īnd the Phobos and Deimos, which are the moons of Mars. I can just go through my document and choose the heading. Should this be 14 point font? Should it be a different color? I don’t have to worry about that. Now The Planets, that’s going to be a different heading, so I can do Heading 2 and I don’t have to worry about well it’s 16 point font for Heading 1, what should. So I can go through my document this way. So let me click Asteroids and hit Heading 1 again. Kind of just what I did there with three steps, I can do with styles. The Planets here, I’m going to hit Heading 1 and it has just given me some spacing. I am going to go up here to the Quick Styles, which is up here in the ribbon. I can do all those steps: change font, change spacing, change color with headings. Now if I have to do this for each of my headings, I know about Format Painter, so I can take this format, go over up here to Format Painter in the ribbon, click on that and now everything I touch will be painted like that.īut if I am doing that for a lot of headings, I have to go through my entire document. If you go up to the paragraph in the ribbon here in this little triangle on the bottom right-hand corner, that will open your Paragraph settings.Īnd after I am going to put a little six point. So let’s get away from the carriage return and maybe you know about, ooh, spacing. Maybe?Ĭarriage returns are bad, especially if you’re continuing typing because now you’re in that font. So let’s kind of I don’t know about that. What should I do for a heading? Well, let’s make it a color. Here is my author thing and I am going to try to center that, and I’ll make a little smaller, I guess. I might take my title here and okay I want to center that.
Here’s what I would normally do if I didn’t know about styles. So, here we have an unformatted document about the Solar system. As soon as they click this thing, and they look at fonts they’re gone for five minutes, right?īut what I am going to show you is the advantages of doing that. It’s a little tough if you come from the old typewriter age, or if you are a kid, I know, because I have a couple of teenagers. Work on formatting your document afterwards. I think it is attributed to Stephen King who says, “Don’t get it right (air quotes right), get it written.”
