'Toggle 'Defer updates' on and off in a Drawing
Dim oDoc As Document
oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
oValue = oDoc.DrawingSettings.DeferUpdates ()
if oValue = "False" Then
oDoc.DrawingSettings.DeferUpdates = "True"
oStatusText = "Off"
Else
oDoc.DrawingSettings.DeferUpdates = "False"
oStatusText = "On"
End if
PauseTime = 2
Start = Timer
Do While Timer < Start + PauseTime
ThisApplication.UserInterfaceManager.DoEvents
ThisApplication.StatusBarText = "Drawing Updates " & oStatusText
Loop
I welcome your comments.
