Tip
We provide you with the appropriate code:
Sub AutoOpen()
Set myRange = ActiveDocument.Content
myRange.Find.Execute FindText:="{Tab}"
With Selection.Find
.ClearFormatting
.Text = "{Tab}"
.Replacement.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.Text = "^t"
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll, Forward:=True, _
Wrap:=wdFindContinue
End With
End SubFirst, set the desired tab stops via the corresponding format style in the letterhead template. You also have the option of defining several tab stops. The tab stops are set by selecting the desired format style. Then, via the "Format" tab, you reach the "Tab stops" button, where you can insert user-defined tab stops via the "Plus" sign.
To make Word understand where you want to indent the text, place the expression "{Tab}" in Lawlift at the desired positions (IMPORTANT: To indent a complete line, the expression must be placed at the beginning of the line. Therefore it is necessary to insert a line break with the key combination SHIFT + Enter before the expression). This expression works in principle like using the TAB key on your keyboard in an ordinary Word document. You can enter the expression as often as you like in succession in order to select the desired tab stop in the case of several defined tab stops.
2x {Tab} => tab stop at 6
3x {Tab} => tab stop at 8
Warning
Please clarify beforehand to what extent macros may be used in your company and if so, how. A distinction is usually made between your own macros and those of third parties. If necessary, the macro must be checked and set up by an authorized person. You can also upload macro files as letterhead templates, but the Word document then generated may be classified by your system as an "external document" even though it is based on your letterhead template. The macro may then not be executable or the whole file may be blocked. There are two ways to make macros usable. Either locally on computers approved by IT or via LAWLIFT by storing the .docm file there as a BKV. In the latter case, however, your IT must allow the execution of macros (automatically) in the Word file then generated.
