Wysiwyg Changes
 |
Experimenting with font, paragraph and theme changes is a slow,
trial and error process. NO MORE! With the Wysiwyg Change macros, you can adjust
font information, paragraph formatting and themes at the same time you see the
changes reflected in the document! No more going in and out of dialog boxes!
Includes an Undo command if you don't like the changes. |
Pick-Up and Drop Formatting
 |
Say good-bye to Word's format painter. Now you can quickly and
easily copy (i.e. pick-up) and paste (i.e. drop) all sorts of formatting
information from one part of a document to another. Not just font and paragraph
formatting, but also Borders, Tabs, Page Margins, Picture, Textbox and Autoshape
formatting information. |
Quick-Find Toolbar
 |
The Quick Find Toolbar is simply one of the fastest ways to
navigate around your document and to find and replace text. Using this toolbar
you can quickly skip through headings in your document, find hidden text, move
quickly from one shape, table, footnote, hyperlink, quote, or page to another,
or find and replace text without calling up Word's Find dialog box (and much,
much more)! |
Window Management
 |
Unlike many other window management macros which only allow you
to tile or cascade all your open windows, this macro allows you to select a
subset of the windows to be cascaded or tiled. In addition, you can also use
this macro to quickly hide, minimize, maximize, close or print any (or all) of
your open document windows. |
Simul-Scroll
 |
This macro allows simultaneous scrolling of multiple document
windows and is very handy for comparing documents (among other uses)! When the
macro is run, a small dialog box pops up and you can scroll all open, visible
windows simultaneously line-by-line, page-by-page, left-or-right, or simply jump
to the start or end of all the documents. |
Document Notes
 |
A separate pile of post-it notes for every document you have.
You can quickly view, add, delete, edit, print, or rearrange your notes as you
wish. You can even have the notes automatically pop-up when a document opens. |
Document Variables
 |
Unless you write your own macros in Visual Basic, you may not
even know that documents can have variables associated with them. This macro
lets you see all variables associated with a document, delete them, add new
ones, or change their values. Now you don't need to be Visual Basic Programmer
in order to access this feature of Word. |
Multiple File Processing
 |
This macro allows you to quickly build file lists which you can
then open, print, or run any global macro or Word command against. It can save a
lot of manual work of opening and closing files. You can even save file lists
for recall at a later time. It's like a very powerful project manager. |
Print Booster
 |
A replacement for Word's Print Dialog. This replacement has
several advantages. First it displays many of the common print options (such as
printing hidden text, draft printing, updating fields, etc.) right in the main
dialog box. Secondly, it allows you to insert page numbers, the file name and/or
the current date to the headers, the footers (if they are empty), or the start
or end of the document. |
| Gather Contacts
 |
Tired of searching through documents looking for a website
address, email address or phone number? Now with the click of a button, you can
see all this contact information gathered together in pop-up dialog box. |
Gather Fonts and Links
 |
Have you ever shared a file or traveled to a location with an
important document, only to discover that you forgot some of the files that were
linked to the document, or you now don't have access to the same set of fonts?
This macro will ensure that never happens again. It reports the files (and
fonts) that may be linked to the document in one way or another and allows you
to copy any or all of them to a common directory. |
Display Button images
 |
Word 2000 (& 2002) contains well over 1,700 button images
that can be used on toolbars, or pasted into your documents. To see all the
images, simply run this macro. A giant floating tool bar will appear containing
250 button images. The bottom line of this toolbar includes text buttons which
allow you to scroll backwards or forwards through the rest of the button images. |
Run Macro Repeatedly
 |
Often I need to perform a very repetitive task in Word. Creating
a macro helps a bit, but it can be pretty tedious running the macro repeatedly.
This macro allows me to select any macro (or Word command) and run it once,
twice, up to 1,000 times in one or more of the currently open document windows,
or simply run it repeatedly in the current window until the Caps-Lock key is
toggled. |
Insert Any Date
 |
This macro pops up a monthly calendar from which you quickly
find any date and double-click on it to insert it into your document as text. It
can be inserted according to a preset format, or according to a custom format
which you can write. |
Quick Bookmark
 |
This is a real bookmark. In the real world you don't need to
assign bookmark names or select from a whole list. You just pick up your
bookmark and stick it where you want it so that you can find your place again
later. This is that type of bookmark. In addition, it works across document
windows. |
Common Window Views
 |
In a nutshell, this macro allows you to change the view
characteristics of one window (toolbars, ruler, status bar, scroll bars, zoom
size, and various display options) and then with a click of a button, change all
the other active windows so that they have all the same display characteristics.
It saves trying to change the same options in all windows individually!
(Requires Word 2000 or later) |
| See Table Headings |
Ever in the middle of a large table and not able to see the
table headings? Tired of scrolling up and down, left and right, just to make
sure you're in the right row or column? Simply run this macro and in the status
bar will appear the text of the leftmost cell for the row you are in, as well as
the text of the cell at the top of the current column. |
1. Save Booster
2. Save As Booster
3. Saved File List
 |
Do you have the problem of saving files and later forgetting
what they were called, or where they were stored? These macros may help you.
They are replacements for Word's Save and SaveAs commands. They work exactly the
same except that they also keep an on-going list of all files when they are
first saved. This list of saved files can then be brought up at any time by
running the 'Saved File List' macro. |
Select Common Text
 |
If you want to select an area of text which has similar
character, paragraph, tab, language or style formatting information, simply put
the cursor insertion point somewhere in the middle of the text area and run this
macro. Depending on which option you choose, the area surrounding the cursor
that has the similar characteristics you asked for will be blocked off. |
| Quick-Links
 |
This macro is actually a drop-down menu that allows you to
update, lock, unlock or unlink all (or selected) fields and links in a document
with a single click. |
1. Open Booster
2. Close Booster |
Use the Close Booster and Open Booster macros to have documents
open up in the exact same place in which you closed them. Not only will you be
taken back to the same spot in the document, but all the window settings and
viewing options will be maintained! |
Edit Clipboard
 |
Use this macro to edit the contents of the clipboard. After
editing the contents, you can also use this macro to paste the contents in your
document or to store the edited contents to a document variable. |
| Toggle TitleBar |
Running this simple macro simply toggles the title bar of the
active document window to include the path name of the document file along with
the its name. |
TrueType Font Files
 |
A simple macro that allows you to select any font available and
if it is a TrueType font, the names of the actual computer files associated with
the font will be displayed. |
| Cascade Windows |
Cascades all Open Document Windows. |
| Tile Windows Side-by-Side |
Side-by-side tiling of all Open Document Windows. |
| Tile Windows Top-to-Bottom |
Top-to-bottom tiling of all Open Document Windows. |
| Minimize Windows |
Minimizes all open Document Windows. |
| Clean-Up Document
 |
Remove extra spaces from a document, replace multiple spaces
with tabs or remove mid-paragraph line-breaks from text documents that were
created in a program that didn't have line-wrapping. |
WingDing Concentration
 |
A simple but challenging version of the popular memory game. In
this version of Concentration, the WingDing font is used to generate the card
pairs. |
