MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft provides programming examples for illustration only, without warranty either expressed or implied. This includes, but is not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language that is being demonstrated and with the tools that are used to create and to debug procedures. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements. To work around this problem, you can use the following sample Visual Basic for Applications routine. This routine uses the DocumentMap property to determine whether Document Map view is turned on. If it is, the macro sets the numPanes variable equal to 2.

Sub IsDocMapOn()
   If ActiveWindow.DocumentMap = True Then
      numPanes = 2
   End If
End Sub
