macronym4word

Two macros for MS Word. These were written and proven in Word 2013. First one is acronym_gather. This macro operates on whatever document is open and gathers every acronym into a list, then counts each occurrence of the acronym and sorts the list alphabetically. The count functionality can be turned off, and *should* be turned off use to the output with the acronym_highlighter. The second macro is acronym_highlighter. This macro asks for a .txt file which should be the file produced by acronym_gather. It will highlight the FIRST occurrence of each acronym in the list. This will help with ensuring that you have the first occurrence spelled out!
