I would like to be the first to publically announce that sandam (http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/member.php?userid=1277) has accepted a promotion to the position of Approver! :yes

This is a very key position to the development of this site and the Knowledge Base (http://www.vbaexpress.com/kb). With only five current Approver's (http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/showgroups.php?), their tasks are quite heavy in front of them. These are the people that I am truly in awe of.

Thank you and Congratulations!!!!


In case anybody was wondering what it takes to be an Approver, well here is a brief job description ...


Approvers

The Approver group is responsible for the Knowledge Base. Any member of this group must be willing to check the Knowledge Base frequently (at least a couple times a week) for new submissions.

General Guidelines
* Ensure entry is complete in it's entirety.
* Test code, directions, discussion, sample file and instructions.
* Check the Knowledge Base for duplicates or similar entries.
* If you are not sure if an entry should be approved contact DRJ (http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=135) or Firefytr (http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=11).
* Please do not edit a submission without the submitters approval.

Sorry! I've moved this thread so it doesn't pre-empt our live chat with Aaron tonight. The MOMENT the live chat is over, we should put this announcement back up in the Announcements area.

Sandam: We don't take these positions lightly! We "hire" people we think are courteous and thoughtful, seem interested in learning more about VBA, and hang out a lot! We can't have you loitering, so we put you to work! Hee hee...

We're THRILLED to have you! And honored. So forget that "I'm surprised" bit, okay?

Congratulations!!

Another Word guy?... Here I am trying to understand how this (http://www.vbaexpress.com/kb/getarticle.php?kb_id=334)cool KB submission by MD works so I can either break it or approve it when all the time we already had an approver who understands the unfathomable mysteries of Word?

What's that you say? ... Md's an approver who understands Word ... yeah, I know that, but he can't approve his own submission can he? - Well - :Thinkingo :thinking: :115: .. :idea: .. :idea: .. DOH, I get it now!! ... (mumble, mumble, grumble, grumble (shut UP John))


Hi, and welcome aboard Andrew!
