I have developed a reporting format that uses macros to insert information into the report. It also inserts, as required, Corrective Action Requests (CARs) where our staff find some aspect within the organisation being audited that does not meet the required standards. Inserting the CAR forms is the easy bit. To be able individually identify the CARs they are numbered. To achieve this I have used the Word ListNum field. This works fine and numbers the CARs sequentially, although using the Outline numbering which I do not like as it puts a parenthesis after the number.
Our staff also have a requirement to move the CARs within the report (shuffle them). The ListNum field handles this as well by renumbering the CARs as they are moved. Very smart!
How do I assign the contents of an enclosed bookmark to a variable? The problem I have is that I wish to automate the process further by having the system check for the total number of CARs and insert that number, if it is more than 1, at a bookmark within the report as well as adding varying text, using autotext, when the total number is 1.
Cheers
