Unfortunately, that doesn't work here. When you are recording you can't use
the mouse cursor to select text. Kind of stinks, doesn't it? Learning VB is
the only option I know of, and I am not sure that will even solve this
problem. Again, I think the best way would be to determine another way to
break up the text than in pages.
