SpaceAfterAuto Property

True if Microsoft Word automatically sets the amount of spacing after the specified paragraphs. Returns wdUndefined if the SpaceAfterAuto property is set to True for only some of the specified paragraphs. Can be set to either True or False. Read/write Long.

Remarks

When you open an HTML document without cascading style sheets, Word automatically sets the SpaceAfterAuto property to True to render the paragraph spacing exactly as it would appear in a Web browser.

If SpaceAfterAuto is set to True, the SpaceAfter property is ignored.

Example

This example displays a report showing the SpaceAfterAuto settings for the active document.

Select Case ActiveDocument.Paragraphs.SpaceAfterAuto
    Case True
        x = "Spacing after paragraphs is handled " _
            & "automatically for all paragraphs."
    Case False
        x = "Spacing after paragraphs is handled " _
            & "manually for all paragraphs."
    Case wdUndefined
        x = "Spacing after paragraphs is handled " _
            & "automatically for some paragraphs, " _
            & "manually for some paragraphs."
End Select
