Question : Create INFO popup macro in Office 2003.

I have a document which is typed by a transcriptionist.  Sometimes, there are areas she leaves in RED which indicate edits are needed.  This is sometimes overlooked. Is there a way for her to be able to hit a hotkey (i.e., apply a Macro), which will cause an info box (or some other notifier) to popup next time I open the word document.  Then perhaps, I could check a box or hit my own macro to remove the pop upper for future launches.

Bottom line:  some way for me to apply a macro which will force me to recognize that action is necessary on the document.  Any thoughts?  

Thanks in advance!

Answer : Create INFO popup macro in Office 2003.

If she is changing text color to red, this should work for you:

Sub FindRedText()
Dim doc As Range
Set doc = ActiveDocument.Range
 
  With doc.Find
      .ClearFormatting
      .Font.Color = wdColorRed
      .Wrap = wdFindStop
     
    While .Execute
      If doc.Font.ColorIndex = 6 Then
         doc.Select
         MsgBox "Correction Needed", vbExclamation, "Transcriptionist Input"
      End If
      doc.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
      Wend
    End With
 
    Set doc = Nothing
End Sub

Like the other code, you can make this one an autoopen too, or leave it as is and run it when you want.
