I'm a programmer with 26 years of experience. Can any one suggest a
book that would get me into VB enough to carry out this project?
"Writing Word Macros" published by O'Reilly, is the perfect book. It's
got
everything, very clearly presented. You need nothing else.
And the online Help in the Word VB Editor is excellent on its own,
And don't forget the "inquisitive route" -- record a macro containing
actions similar to the ones you want to do, then look at the code in the
Visual Basic Editor. You can quite quickly build up a library of code
chunks in that way.
