Whenever someone has a baby, I always ask how they came up with the baby’s name. Stories have ranged from fascinating to “just ’cause” (we liked the name).

I’m editing an eBook that requires special formatting for every story. Naturally this was a good fit for a macro. The first macro did all the steps, but fumbled on the call outs.
