How do I get a macro to pause and wait for keyboard input and then to resume?
If you mean you want the macro to pause while the user types something into the
document, Word macros don't typically work that way. If you're coming from
WordPerfect, it's understandable that you'd expect it, but Word has better
alternatives.
VBA has an InputBox() function that will display a prompt and return the user's
input to a string variable in the macro, and then the macro can do various
things with that string such as inserting it into the document. But that's
usually considered a very amateurish technique.
What are you trying to accomplish? When we know that, we can probably suggest a
better way.
