(newbie) Macro to omit certain pages while printing

[Abhinav]

Hi All,

I know a wee bit of vba but not much .. and most of it in excel.

I have a word document, with many pages having paragraphs with the
text <<not applicable>>.

Is there a way to print out the document without these sections ?

Any pointers towards the above will be helpful


TIA

Clarifying from another id ..

Hi All,

I know a wee bit of vba but not much .. and most of it in excel.

I have a word document, with many pages having paragraphs with the
text <<not applicable>>.

In effect, <<Not Applicable>> will be present beneath a "Heading" Style.
I have "Heading 1" to "Heading 9" Defined. It could be under any of them..

Hence the requirement is :

If the page contains <<Not Applicable>> and NOTHING Else, Omit the page
while printing.


Thanks for your Help !!

How about using Edit>Replace to replace

^m<<not applicable>>^m

with

^m

to delete the pages with only <<not applicable>> on them (assuming that
manual page breaks are used), then print the document and close it without
saving it.
