AutomaticallyUpdate Property

Microsoft Word Visual Basic

True if the style is automatically redefined based on the selection. False if Word prompts for confirmation before redefining the style based on the selection. A style can be redefined when it's applied to a selection that has the same style but different manual formatting. Read/write Boolean.

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
