Using bookmarks with word

[BSando]

I have a word doco I am using bookmarks with.
When the doco is email to someone they are asked if they want to update the data.

Is there a way to stop this?

Some people make things happen, some watch while things happen, and some wonder 'What happened?'

 

[PHV]

You have some objects (fields or OLE) with the AutoUpdate property set to True.
You may try something like this before saving the doco for email:
For Each s In yourDocObject.Shapes
With s
If .Type = msoLinkedOLEObject Then
.LinkFormat.AutoUpdate = False
End If
End With
Next s
For Each f In yourDocObject.Fields
f.LinkFormat.AutoUpdate = False
Next f

Hope This Helps, PH.
