Will Word "select PAGE"?

[George]

Am using MS Office Word 2003, SP3. I'd like to copy just ONE page, but
"select ALL" is the only choice on the menu.

The other two ways have problems, and are slightly more tedious to use
too...

#1) Mouse method. Put cursot at first character on page, then hold left
button of mouse and drag down (Doesn't work at all if there are any objects
on the page, like 'boxes' or 'lines').

#2) PgDn method. Put cursot at first character on page, then hold SHIFT and
press PAGE DOWN (It grabs some extra text on the next page when there's a
header).

#3) Select Page method? ___________________________. <Is there a way like
in some other apps where you can "Select Page", then COPY (or Cntl-C), then
go to a new place in the document and PASTE, so you have an exact copy of
the prior page

Thanks,
George

You could use a macro such as the following:

Sub CopyPageRange()
On Error Resume Next
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\page").Range.Copy
End Sub

to select the current page.

To select a stretch of text, place the cursor at the start of the
selection, then with the mouse move the pointer to the end of the
selection, and press Shift before you click on the end-spot.
