Transfer Glossary Merge in a Macro Returns an Error Message

4.00 5.00

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

A macro that performs a Transfer Glossary Merge command will beep and return an error message if the glossary from which it is merged has a macro in it with the same name.

In Word version 5.00, the error message returned is “Cannot load or merge glossary while recording or playing macro.” In Word version 4.00, there is no error message displayed, but a beep is generated.

In both versions, the glossary merge will actually take place and all glossary entries other than the running macro will be updated.

Word cannot update a currently executing macro. As with the Transfer Glossary Clear, Transfer Glossary Load, and Transfer Clear All commands, Word will ignore them, beep, and continue running the macro.
