Style.AutomaticallyUpdate property (Word)

True if the style is automatically redefined based on the selection. Read/write Boolean.

Syntax

expression. AutomaticallyUpdate

expression A variable that represents a 'Style' object.

Remarks

If the AutomaticallyUpdate property is set to False, Microsoft Word prompts for confirmation before redefining the style based on the selection. A style can be redefined when it is applied to a selection that has the same style but different manual formatting. The AutomaticallyUpdate property applies to paragraph styles only.

Example

This example creates a style named "Style1" that can be redefined without the need for confirmation.

Dim docNew as Document 
Dim styleNew as Style 
 
Set docNew = Documents.Add 
Set styleNew = docNew.Styles.Add("Style1") 
 
With styleNew 
 .BaseStyle = docNew.Styles(wdStyleNormal) 
 .ParagraphFormat.LineSpacingRule = wdLineSpaceDouble 
 .AutomaticallyUpdate = True 
End With
