MacroLimitInWordDocument

[mike]

What is the maximum number of macros that can be used in a single word
document.
I have a Word document with a front page with 3 columns and multiple rows.
In column 2 & 3 there is a different macro buttons that when clicked on will
print a certain page in the document or go to a specific page in the document
so that it can be viewed.

thanks for any assistance,

Assuming that you are referring to macro button fields, according to the
information on the following webpage, you can have 32,000 of them

There is however a limit of 150 macros, but with efficient coding, you
should be able to cope with that.

Thanks for the response. I am somewhat a novice in efficient coding.
How can I get around the limit. Basically I am looking at a limit of 75 pages.
Macro 1 = view page 2, macro 2 = view page 2 and so forth until I reach page
75.
If you can assist, would appreciate any help.
Again thanks for the help.

Use Selection.Information (wdEndOfRangeRowNumber) to get the number of the
row in which the selection is located and make use of that in the code.
