Hi Andrew,



Thank you for your contribution I didn't get yours quite to work yet. I created the macro and it seemed to be doing the job (ie no error dialog box) but in the end nothing happened.

By the way: is there a way the macro would split a document into 1000 word chunks ON THE DOCUMENT ITSELF, as opposed to creating x 1,0000-word docs? E.g. by creating a mark of sorts. If the macro could pull this off it'd be next to FANTASTIC

Thank you both.

Other than by inserting page breaks or Section breaks between the segments, it's not clear what you mean. Either of those would be far simpler than the code we've already provided, but things could get complicated if you then go and start editing one of the delimited segments.

Hi Paul,
That is exactly what I mean: could the macro work in such as way so as to split the doc into 1,000-word chunks separating these by a page break?

Thank you so much again. And my apologies for not having made this clear from the outset.
