Hi

I am an experienced Word User and have some programming experience.

Can anyone recommend a good book that explores the use of VBA with specific reference to WORD (I can find plenty of books on EXCEL)?

Alternatively can I be directed to any good on-line resources or tutorials?
I am using Word 2016 on Windows 10.

Many thanks
Rodney

A book you might find useful is The Secret Life of Word: A Professional Writer's Guide to Microsoft Word Automation, by R Delwood, published by XML Press in 2011(http://xmlpress.net/publications/word-secrets/). I contributed some content for and did much of the technical review of this book. This isn't a programming book as such (though it does have some programming in it) and doesn't profess to teach you how to program. Rather, it shows how to combine Word's various tools to achieve whatever the desired result might be. Another that I contributed to (and has much more programming in it) is Word Hacks, by A Savikas, published by O'Reilly Media in 2005 (http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596004934.do). I contributed content for this book also. Although it pre-dates Office 2007, much of the content is still relevant.
