How do I set selection to the active document?

[gedinfo]

Hi,

I want to be able to run a macro on a Word 2010 document that i currently have open.
The code below shows the working macro with an open call, what I want to do is run the macro on any opened document, without having to manually set the file.



Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Sub FontReplaceTimesNewRoman()
'
' FontReplaceTimesNewRoman Macro
'
'
Dim objWordApp As Word.Application
Dim objWordDoc As Word.Document
Dim objSelection As Selection
Dim FileString As String
Const wdReplaceAll = 2

    Set objWordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    FileString = "C:\Downloads\VerificationProcedures.docx"

    objWordApp.Documents.Open (FileString)
    objWordApp.Visible = True

    Set objWordDoc = objWordApp.ActiveDocument
    Set objSelection = objWordApp.Selection

    objSelection.Find.Font.Name = "Times New Roman"
    objSelection.Find.Forward = True
    objSelection.Find.Replacement.Font.Name = "Calibri"
    objSelection.Find.Execute "", , False, , , , , , , , wdReplaceAll

    objWordApp.Documents.Close (Word.WdSaveOptions.wdSaveChanges)
    objWordApp.Quit
    Set objWordApp = Nothing
End Sub

As coded, your macro assumes word is running and opens a document. What if Word isn't running or no document is open?

From which application are you intending to run this macro? If you are running it from Word as posting to this forum suggests, why are you creating a new Word application in which to run it?
