    Well, shoot. I was trying to color the words blue in the above post and then show how the xxx and zzz tags are to be inserted before and after the blue words when the macro is run. I am sure Tek Tips has a way of letting the users edit but I cannot find it.

    How can I iterate using a For loop in an onclick event?

    How can I iterate through the variables below and display only one sentence on the screen at a time, using a button onclick event to trigger the display of the sentence. As the code is written now, all four sentences display on the screen at one time and there is no button. Thank you in advance...
