Formatting text in Footer?

[Armey]

I have some vba code that I use to update my footer from a userform.
It all works as I have coded it but I am having trouble formatting the
footer text after I update it. For example on my first bookmark I
want it to be left justified and my page x of y that is already in the
footer, I want it right justified. Any ideas?

Thanks!

No, not without seeing your code. If it isn't a state secret, why don' t
you post it?

Have the text appear in the footer by the use of a DOCVARIABLE field and
have the code in your userform set the value of the variable and update the
fields in the .Range of the footer. Then you can include a \* charformat
switch to the field if necessary and apply the desired formatting to the D
of DOCVARIABLE.
