How to get all headers text in a Word Document ?

BeginnerLearner · #1 02-06-2019, 11:07 PM

Hi, macropod

Sorry my mistake, my actual document has a 'different first page' setup.

Does that mean I have to do the table manually, every time I open a word document?

If I want to use macro, is there a way to retrieve all header and check?

Sorry that I ask too many questions

Thank you

No, it doesn't mean that.

The problem you have with doing a check has more to do with the fact your cover page doesn't say the same thing as your header even in the example you gave. Whilst a human can see the header is consistent with the cover page, having a macro recognise that when they're not exactly the same is problematic at best.

Hi, macropod

So if the header and cover page are not exactly the same, it is hard to use VBA to check?

Eg. The header text: Mathematics Exam
The cover page: Mathematics Examination

Thank you
