Hello gents and ladies,

I'm quite new to the Word 2010, and I apologize if I don't seem like I have looked through the thread for the tutorials on recording macros. I'm just wondering if there are any good recording macro guide in Word for the beginners.

Kind regards,

Although recording is a way to start with macros, it isn't all that good.
See Creating a macro with no programming experience using the recorder. Although written for Word 97 everything in it is valid for the latest editions of Word. I would then go on to sample Macros and VBA (Visual Basic for Applications).

You may want to look at books, too. Here are three that I'm using:

• Word 2007 Document Automation with VBA and VSTO by Scott Driza
• Mastering VBA for Office 2010 by Richard Mansfield
• Word 2007 Macros & VBA Made Easy by Guy-Hart Davis

The first book looks at Word using both vba and visual studio.
I still use Writing Word Macros by Steve Roman, from O'Reilly even though I think it was written for Word 2000.

Thanks, Charles, I'll read them and use them for my assignments and for work. It makes everything easier. I appreciate your help.
