Thanks, but I was trying to improve my "cleanup" macro so that any place holders that had over-flowing text would get "auto-fitted".

I believe that your registry suggestion sounds like it would turn off the check box in autoformat options.

I was trying to figure out how to call the "autofit" method (if any) to make the text fit.

Did some Google-research and it seems like that's a Smart Tag. Sinking feeling that I won't be able to get to it.
