Run XML Macro

You can export the glossed or analyzed (interlinearized) text displayed in Print View tab into a Microsoft Word XML format. For export to Word 2003, you need to run a macro that was installed on your hard drive when you installed FieldWorks. The macro will correct misalignments.

  1. Open this file:

C:\Program Files\SIL\FieldWorks 9\Language Explorer\Export Templates\Interlinear\Interlinear Macros and Instructions.doc.

To do this, in Word open the Security dialog box (Tools\Macro\Security), and then choose Medium, instead of High or Very High.

  1. Install the FieldWorks_Interlinear_Macros macro into Normal.dot as follows:

    The Organizer dialog box appears.

  2. In the Organizer dialog box Macro Project Items tab, and then do the following:

  3. In the Organizer dialog box, click the Toolbars tab, and then do the following:

    The macro is now available for toolbar setup.

  4. Close the Interlinear Macros and Instructions.doc file.

  5. If you have not already done so, export the interlinear text (from Language Explorer).

  6. In Word, open the file containing the exported interlinear text.

  7. In Word, with the interlinear export file open, right-click the toolbars area, and then select FieldWorks Interlinear.

    A new toolbar appears with Adjust boxes and Adjust tables buttons.

  8. To re-align display, click Adjust boxes. When that is finished, click Adjust tables.
