Displaying the Ruler

This is equivalent to (View > Ruler).
Returns or sets whether the ruler(s) is displayed in the active window (Print Layout).
ActiveWindow.DisplayRulers = True
If the view is Print Layout and the Display Rulers is true then the DisplayVerticalRulers determiens whether a vertical ruler will be displayed.

If Application.DisplayRulers = False Then 

End If

You cannot display a vertical ruler unless the horizontal ruler is displayed.

Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage 
               Which:=wdGoToNext

Application.DocumentMap = True / False 

Returns or sets the width of the document map as a percentage of the width of the window.

Application.DocumentMapPercentWidth = 20

This only works for selections, not for ranges.

With Dialogs(wdWordDialog.wdDialogFormatColumns) 
   Debug.Print . ColumnNo
End With

MyRange.Delete


'To set a range object to a particular page number:
'you can then operate on the page without selecting it, e.g.

Dim MyRange As Range 
Set MyRange = ActiveDocument.Range(0, 0)
