How to italicize a word without selecting it, cursor w/in word on.
by QXVnZ2ll » Sat, 27 Aug 2005 23:38:06 GMT
In Word, I used to be able to put the cursor within a word like this:
anno|ying, and then click control-B, or control-I, or control-U to bold,
italicize or underline the entire word. Then my computer crashed and I had to
reinstall Word. Now I must highlight/select the entire word to change its
attributes. How do I set Word to do like it did before?

Tools-->Options, Edit tab. "When selecting, select whole word" needs to be
checked.

I need a code that will look for an italicized word and highlight it and pop
up a message box asking the user if they want to remove the italics. The
user clicks yes, no, or cancel and the code highlights the next italicized
word and pops up the msgbox again. This needs to happen till it reaches the
end of the document.
This is what I have so far.

myVariable = MsgBox("Do you want to remove italics?", vbQuestion +
vbYesNoCancel, "Remove Italics?")
If myVariable = 6 Then
.Execute Forward:=True, Replace:=wdReplaceOne, _
Format:=True, ReplaceWith:=""
ElseIf myVariable = 7 Then
.Execute Forward:=False
ElseIf myVariable = 2 Then
.Execute Forward:=False
End If

End Sub
Please help. Thank you!
