Default Pausing a Macro for User Selection and continuing

I am working on a Macro where I want it to pause and ask the user to select the text in the document so it can be replaced and then once the user selects the document, user is asked with multiple choice of 5 options



Eg.
Option A ( should replace the selected text by inserting a.doc file)
Option B ( should replace the selected text by inserting b.doc file)
.
.
Option E ( should replace the selected text by inserting e.doc file)

How to go about doing this?

Unless you use a modeless useform, you can't really do that. Of course, if you know where the chages might have to be made, you could bookmark them in advance, then have the macro update the bookmarks according to the choices the users make.
