Quick Parts

tmneal74 · #1 11-13-2012, 02:12 PM

I work with contracts that have paragraphs that can have multiple alternatives. I have created a template with several quick parts for said alternative language. I want to be able to create the document I want (with the appropriate contact language) and then send to outside attorneys, etc. without them being able to see the alternative language that is saved into my quick parts. I want them to be able to get the "final" document and still be able to track any changes they make without having access to alternative language via the quick parts.

Any suggestions?

how are you entering the desired quickpart? Are you using a building block gallery content control? If so, you could convert the chosen entry to a rich text control before sending externally:

HTML Code:

Sub ScratchMacro()
'A basic Word macro coded by Greg Maxey
Dim oCC As ContentControl
Dim oCCNew As ContentControl
Dim oRng As Word.Range
Dim strText As String
For Each oCC In ActiveDocument.ContentControls
  If oCC.Type = wdContentControlBuildingBlockGallery Then
    Set oRng = oCC.Range
    strText = oCC.Title
    oCC.Delete
    Set oCCNew = ActiveDocument.ContentControls.Add(wdContentControlRichText, oRng)
    oCCNew.Title = strText
  End If
Next oCC
End Sub
