Hi,

I have an application that (through VBA) opens an existing excel workbook and puts it into a Word document. This works just fine. But, since I have just recently converted to Office 2007 I find that the line spacing in 2007 is bigger than previous Word. I recorded a macro inside Word 2007 to make the spacing 1 line. This is what the recorder showed:

WordBasic.OpenOrCloseParaBelow

I stuck this inside the current macro I have that creates the Word document from Excel, but nothing happened. It didn't give an error and it didn't change the spacing. I think it is because I did not have anything selected inside the document. This is actually a table inside Word. How do I select the document (table) through VBA in order for this spacing command to work?

Thanks for any examples.

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
OK - here is the two lines that I needed.

wrdApp.Selection.WholeStory
WordBasic.OpenOrCloseParaBelow

Hope this helps someone else.
