SUMMARY
You cannot use formatting commands in a macro pane in Word. Therefore,
you cannot modify or apply the Macro Text style (or other styles) while in
the macro editing pane.
MORE INFORMATION
The macro editing pane always uses the Macro Text style. To modify this
style while in a macro editing pane, follow these steps:
- Switch to a document window by selecting an open document from the
Window menu or by clicking New on the File menu to create a new
document.
- On the Format menu, click Style.
- In the Styles list, click Macro Text. If the style does not appear
in the list, select All Styles in the list box.
- Click Modify.
- Click Format and select the property to be changed.
- Click OK after making the changes you want.
The above steps change the Macro Text style for all macro editing
windows. Any currently open macro windows and any new macro windows that
you open will take on the formats of the Macro Text style. Unlike other
styles, the Macro Text style is global to Word for Windows and is not
template specific. When you change the Macro Text style, the change is
recorded in the Nornal.dot file.
