= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Word version 5.0, the Undo command does not undo all of the previous editing actions when it is run in a macro. For example, create and run the following macro:

hello goodbye u

After the macro is run, “hello” is displayed on the screen. When done manually, the above steps write “hello” and “goodbye” on the screen, then erase these words when the Undo command is run.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word version 5.0. This problem was corrected in Word version 5.5. KBCategory: kbother kbmacro KBSubcategory:
