Hi,


I have a Word template that contains a digital signature line added by Insert -> Signature line -> Microsoft Office Signature Line. The template is of course NOT signed.

The user will enter data, and finally submit the document by pressing a macro button. The button does stuff like

• do some checks on the content of the document
• save the document into the correct network folder

I want to prompt the user to digitally sign the document if that hasn't already happened. I can reference SIGNED signature-lines. How can I reference UNSIGNED signature lines?

I can create a NEW signature line and sign it with but that brings up the Signature Setup dialogue. Any parameters the user enters that are not even used later:


Then the sign method kicks in:


The resulting signature looks good, ignoring what the user entered earlier:



I want to prepare a signature-line with details, so my users fill in as little as necessary. Who can help me to reference the UNSIGNED signature line? Then the macro should do something like
but SignatureLines only contains SIGNED SigLines
