Get list of variable names in macros

[#1]

Hi all,

Is there any way to get list of variables in macros.

actually i have a long list of variables and want to set values to them by looping through them?

Regards,

Sab

Hi Sab,

Change the following macro code to set your variables properties or anything.

Sub ShowVars
     varNo = ActiveDocument.GetVariableDescriptions.Count - 1
     For i = 0 to varNo
          MsgBox(ActiveDocument.GetVariableDescriptions.Item(i).Name)
     Next
End Sub

or

Sub ShowVars
     varNo = ActiveDocument.GetVariableDescriptions.Count - 1
     For i = 0 to varNo
          MsgBox(ActiveDocument.GetVariableDescriptions.Item(i).Name)
          Set varActual = ActiveDocument.Variables(ActiveDocument.GetVariableDescriptions.Item(i).Name)
          varActual.SetContent varActual.GetContent.String + 2, true
     Next
End Sub

Hope that helps.
