macro to delete a list of autocorrect entries

fumei · #2 11-04-2013, 05:19 PM

Deleting AutoCorrects is easy. It is a single instruction.

Code:

AutoCorrect.Entries("TheString").Delete

Or in your case:

Code:

AutoCorrect.Entries("Jane Doe").Delete

So. If you have a list, AND the list is made up of single paragraphs you can:

a) build an array of the list and process through it
OR
b) process through each paragraph in the list with something like:

Code:

Dim oPara As Paragraph
Dim AC_String As String
Code:
For Each oPara In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs
   AC_String = Left(oPara.Range.Text, InStr(1, oPara.Range.Text, "=") - 1)
   AutoCorrect.Entries("AC_String").Delete
Next
