Word Macro

[Julie]

I have worked with VBA in Excel, but I haven't in Word.
I have a report that I imported into Word and I need to
remove some words from the top of the report. I can do a
find and delete some of the information, but the other
information varies as I import the report. What is the
best way to only select the text that I need, and delete
the rest. Note: Some of the information that I need
changes everytime I import the report. I also want to
add in a watermark, otherwise, I would import my report
into Excel. Thanks in advance and have a great day!

Hi Julie,

What is it that you could do in Excel that you can't figure
out how to do in Word?

It's not possible to tell you how to select what you need,
and get rid of the rest, without knowing how to indentify
what you need... Are there any common characteristics?

Hi Cindy,

Thanks for your response. I figured out how to do what I
needed to do. I recorded a macro and I programmed it to
find constants in my report and then I went from there.
I appreciate your time. Thanks and have a great day!
