Guest guest Posted January 10, 2001 Report Share Posted January 10, 2001 Dear All, For those studying Sadananda's excellent notes on the Brahmasuutra and having difficulty with some of the Sanskrit, Sunder is very kindly maintaining a glossary of all of the words that have been used. Unfortunately this is becoming ever longer and it may be taking readers some time to locate the meanings. Certainly I began to experience this problem some time ago and, in order to help, produced a Visual Basic macro to run under MS Word. The way this works is that, when reading the notes within MS Word, you can highlight any Sanskrit word that you don't understand, click on a button on the toolbar and a message box will pop up with the meaning of the word. This all works fine. However, Sunder has tried to implement it on his system with only limited success. What I would like to happen is that when people load the glossary into word, Word automatically sets up the button on the toolbar and enables the search macro. I myself currently have the macro running from Normal.dot. I am asking the members of the group if there is anyone with sufficient interest and VBA knowledge to be able to take my macro and incorporate it into the Glossary to operate in the way described. I have done similar things before in Excel but have been unable to work out how to do it in Word. Once this has been done, the facility would then be made available to everyone through the Glossary.
