RE: Macros

Hello Louise,

I believe you are using 2007.

I have created a Macro in that version without any problems.

Macros only record your actions (Click Insert tab, selct the page number of your choice from the Headers & Footers group). Some companies do have security levels that prevent you from using macros but I would try to create it again making sure that your Macro name has no spaces & does not use the name of any Word command and that it is saved to be available to all Word documents.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Ruth

Word tip:

Create bullets or numbering without pressing a button!

If you want to create a bulleted or numbered list in Word, you can do so without using the bulleting or numbering buttons on the toolbar.

Here's how:

To start a bulleted list:
Type in an asterisk (*) or a hyphen (-) followed by a space then your text and press Enter.

The asterisk or hyphen should convert to a bullet point, and a second bullet point should appear next to your cursor position.

Creating a numbered list:
Type in 1. or 1) followed by a space then your text. When you press the Enter key, Word will convert this to an automatically numbered list. The number 2 will automatically appear next to where your cursor is positioned on the page.
