Automating collection of styles/styles in use in Word document
Subject:Automating collection of styles/styles in use in Word document From:Kim Young <kimy -at- NETMANAGE -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 15 Jun 1999 11:21:32 -0400
I've searched the archives and have not found anything pertaining to this
subject....
Does anyone know if there is a way to automatically retrieve a list of
styles defined in a document (not in the attached template), and show which
styles in this list are currently in use in the document?
I need to collect this information from ~100 files and composing these lists
manually is extremely tedious.
I don't know too much about Word macros, so I'm not sure if this can be done
with a macro. If there is a way, I have not found it yet.
