Hi Pasquale,

So you want the contents of the clipboard available in VBA, not in your document?

I had to experiment a little to make this run without Word being a bit too clever, but I think it's OK now - see if it gets you started:

[VBA]
Sub Document_Open()
With Selection
.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory
.TypeParagraph
.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory
.Paste
.Find.Text = ActiveDocument.Range(0, .Start)
With ActiveDocument
.Undo 2
.Saved = True
End With
.Find.Execute
End With
End Sub
[/VBA]
