Clinton: Macro editor question

[Ed Marmon]

Hi,

Youve been posting some great toolbar and macro instructions to get some
of the cumbersome areas of BCm/Word integration alleviated and updated to
perform more like some of the established CRM's out there.

I added your 1st BCM NOTE macro and toolbar item. I followed teh
instructions about edited Project1 in the VBA editor and making it
Business, or whatever it is... etc.

When I go back to add more of these macros, there's no more Project1
obviously, as I changed that last time. Im a little unclear on how to add
a second and consequent macros ( how to name/organize them ) in this
edidor.

For example, I added the letter and email merge one, and I ended up with
Business.Business.Module2.Email and Business.Business.Module2.Email2

I don't want to muddle my previous ( successful ) Business.Note macro
with the newer ones

Thanks

In Outlook, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) subroutines (Sub ... End Sub) are treated as macros. You can add additional macros
by copying and pasting new subroutine text into the editor, just above or below any existing subroutines. Once you've pasted in the
text, click the "Save" button, then close the Visual Basic window.

Now, right-click on the toolbar, select "Customize" and click the "Commands" tab. Select the "Macros" category on the left and
you'll see the new Macros. Let me know if that helps.

I've updated the "Email" and "Letter" subroutines and posted the new macros to our team blog under the title:
"Add Outlook Toolbar Buttons to send Letters and E-mail to Business Contacts"

OK, so I dont have to create a new module and whatnot? ( I assumed that
each little snippet has to be in its own node or module on the left )

I can just use that first subnode on the left that we created ( the base
project was renamed "Business" and then "NOte" was the subnode ) and keep
on pasting new code below it, and the toolbar cust dialog in outlook will
recognize the separate macros?
