I'm good at finding stuff wherever it may be, and using any help I can find. Google is my third most used programming tool, after the macro recorder and the object browser. I have very little formal training in programming, but loads of hands-on experience with a lot of Q&A and research.

It's frustrating that there are not more resources on VBA programming in Word. There's a few good web sites, but nowhere near the wealth of information you can dig up on Excel. Recently I've done a lot of work with Word templates, fields, form fields, and bookmarks, all being automated from Excel, and I used all three of the tools I mentioned above.

Keep on plugging, tho. If you're really into this automation stuff there's lots of places you can get assistance.
