Hi all,

I've been searching the net for a solution to this question with no success and as usualcome back to Tek Tips!

I have a teaching program that uses a lot of different terms in each chapter. I would like to create a searchable glossary of terms with their definitions. Also, each term will be from a different chapter so I would also like the option of having each term associated with different chapters.

Now this is pretty easy in Access. Make a form from a table blah blah blah...nice and easy......

What is the best method of doing this in VB?

Thanks
Owen
 
Owen,

This is the VB for Applications Forum -- Straight VB would be in forum222.

I can tell you how to do this in MS Word, using a Concordance and Index References using AutoMark. Don't know how much of that could be Macro Recorded to do it in VBA. I'd have to muddle thru as I am not a Word VBA guru.

Skip,
