Hi Gurus<br />
<br />
I can assign a range of text so that it can be edited by 'everyone' by using this code:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Selection.Editors.Add wdEditorEveryone<br />
<br />
And I can prevent a range of text from being edited by everyone by using this:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Selection.Editors(wdEditor<wbr />Everyone).<wbr />Delete<br />
<br />
But how can I test what has been set for a range of selected text? &nbsp;I need to know if it has been assigned to everyone or not. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I'm sure it's very simple but I can't find it. &nbsp;Hope you can help.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Word 2003 - VBA code to find out if text is assigned as editable or not?

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
