Hmm... Won't quite work unfortunately. It's a "row" in the middle of a larger
table, and the goal is to make it look like one continuous table - either
with or without the "row" in question, depending on the info from the
UserForm. A white gap in the middle might be a bit noticeable... ;-P
Good idea though, but I think I'll just stay with the blank row. At least
that way the continuity of the table remains intact. The gap before and after
the table uses a style with a 1pt height and 1pt, hidden font and there is no
top or bottom border on the table, so it just closes everything up when the
doc is printed.
Thanks Doug!

If having the space occupied by the table remain in the document, you could
set the colour of the font and the borders to white.

Sadly this still does not resolve the problem. Even repurposing a table
that
I *know* hides properly under the correct conditions, the process still
only
hides the text within the table and not the table itself.
~sigh~
Oh well. It looks a bit odd, but I guess I'll just have to live with it.

Gordon,
I'd redo the table from scratch - then run the code again.

Here's an odd one for you all:
Word 2003 under Windows XP
I have a template set up to toggle the visibility of certain portions
of
the
document depending on the values input through a UserForm. For example,
if
the "Goods Schedule" checkbox is selected, the related "Goods Schedule"
page
is displayed; if the checkbox isn't selected, then the page is hidden.
This
is accomplished by wrapping the content in a bookmark and setting the
Hidden
property of the Font bookmark's Range. I do this a lot, so I've written
a
couple of "generic" procedures that accept arguments for toggling the
visibility, as follows:
Public Sub HideBookmarkRange(BkmkName As String)
With myDoc
If .Bookmarks.Exists(BkmkName) Then
.Bookmarks(BkmkName).Range.Font.Hidden = True
End With
End Sub
Public Sub ShowBookmarkRange(BkmkName As String)
With myDoc
If .Bookmarks.Exists(BkmkName) Then
.Bookmarks(BkmkName).Range.Font.Hidden = False
End With
End Sub
In some cases the content is a portion of a table (one or more rows),
but
of
course it's impossible to wrap a bookmark around a single row or
several
rows
within a table. In these instances, I've spilt the table at the
appropriate
points and wrapped the bookmark around the whole table, including the
paragraph before the table. This works _most_ of the time.
HOWEVER... One table refuses to hide. The text within the table is
formatted
as hidden, but the table itself is still visible. I've tried adding a
paragraph after the table and including this paragraph in the bookmark,
and
I've even tried manually setting the font to hidden. Nothing seems to
work.
As far as I can tell, this table is no different from any of the others
in
the template. All of the properties are the same; the style applied to
the
paragraph before the table is the same; and there are no styles applied
to
any of the content within the table that aren't used in other tables
elsewhere.
Any ideas as to why this table and this table only refuses to play nice
and
hide like the rest of them do?
