Documents(1).PageSetup.VerticalAlignment = wdAlignVerticalCenter
This example creates a new document and then inserts the same paragraph 10 times. The vertical alignment of the new document is then set so that the 10 paragraphs are equally spaced (justified) between the top and bottom margins.
Set myDoc = Documents.Add
With myDoc.Content
For i = 1 to 9
.InsertAfter "This is a sentence."
.InsertParagraphAfter
Next i
.InsertAfter "This is a sentence."
End With
myDoc.PageSetup.VerticalAlignment = wdAlignVerticalJustify
This example creates a 3x3 table in a new document and assigns a sequential cell number to each cell in the table. The example then sets the height of the first row to 20 points and vertically aligns the text at the top of the cells.
Set newDoc = Documents.Add
Set myTable = newDoc.Tables.Add(Selection.Range, 3, 3)
i = 1
For Each c In myTable.Range.Cells
c.Range.InsertAfter "Cell " & i
i = i + 1
Next
With myTable.Rows(1)
.Height = 20
.Cells.VerticalAlignment = wdAlignVerticalTop
