Display / hide text in word with a plus sign

[Paul]

Is it possible in word 2007 to set up a list of titles, e.g.

home address
works address
garage address

so that the document when initially displayed is kept short, but add the
capability of either clicking on the text, or adding a plus sign to expand
the full text e.g.

+ home address
+ works address
+ garage address

expands to

- home address
2007 word road
Wordshire
England
+ works address
+ garage address

Stefan,
It looks promising. I've used VB in Excel before, but not Word. It will
probably take me a few days to get it sorted. Thanks for your help.

A new add-in for Word, called More, makes hiding and showing any part of a Word document very simple. With More just select part of the document, and click the button on the More tab - you now have a button for hiding and showing the selected part. Lots of additional features.
