Help please with option buttons "vandaley" <yossisp[ at ]nice.com> 11.07.2006 18:21:31 Hi, I need to create option buttons in a user form in VBA word. When the user clicks the option button it will add a piece of text with screen shots to the document and then when following the wizard (user form) more text and screen shots will be added when clicking certain option buttons. I've tried inserting autotext to bookmarks but the screen shots are not added (i get an error in the document). Any ideas? Thanks,

Re: Help please with option buttons Jay Freedman <jay.freedman[ at ]verizon.net> 11.07.2006 19:46:50 I might be able to help if I had any idea what you're already trying and what error it's causing. To try to get the right information, here are some questions that occur to me: 1. What version of Word are you using? And what version(s) do you expect others to use when they work with your userform? 2. When you say "userform", do you really mean what Word calls a userform, a custom dialog designed in the VBA editor? (Lots of people mistakenly refer to a protected form, using controls from the Forms toolbar in the body of a document, as a "userform".) 3. What code do you have now? 4. Where do the inserted screen shots come from? Are they saved in graphic-format files on disk (.jpg, .gif, .bmp?) or are they only on the clipboard at the time the macro executes? 5. Are you inserting the screen shots into bookmarks? Or are you trying to insert them into form fields which have "bookmarks" as names? 6. What is the *exact* text of the error that occurs? 7. If necessary, would you be willing to send me a copy of your template? -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Re: Help please with option buttons "Dave Lett" <davelett[ at ]NOaolSPAM.com> 11.07.2006 19:55:02 Answered in microsoft.public.word.vba.general, I think. Please don't cross post. If you have autotext that isn't inserting images, then I'm thinking that you have set the RichText argument to True.

Re: Help please with option buttons "Greg Maxey" <gmaxey[ at ]mvps.org> 11.07.2006 20:05:16 Dave, .....then I'm thinking that you have set the RichText argument to True. That could be my fault as I suggested in the userform group: Private Sub OptionButton1_Click() ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.AutoTextEntries("Test").Insert _ Where:=ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Test").Range, RichText:=True End Sub I didn't test with an actual screen shot image (just text as the AutoText).

When i create the autotext and then select it in the autotext menu i can see the error in the preview.
