EnableCancelKey Property

         Example         Applies To

Returns or sets the way that Word handles CTRL+BREAK user interruptions. Can be either one of the following WdEnableCancelKey constants: wdCancelDisabled (prevents CTRL+BREAK from interrupting a macro) or wdCancelInterrupt (allows a macro to be interrupted by CTRL+BREAK). Read/write Long.

Remarks

Use this property very carefully. If you use wdCancelDisabled, there's no way to interrupt a runaway loop or other non – self-terminating code. Also, the EnableCancelKey property is not reset to wdCancelInterrupt when your code stops running; unless you explicitly reset its value, it will remain set to wdCancelDisabled for the duration of the Word session.
