This article was previously published under Q86765 SUMMARY
The following Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications / WordBasic macro
code checks to see if the number 11 is odd or even. You can substitute
another number or a numeric variable for the number 11.
If 11 Mod 2 = 0 Then
Print "Number is even"
Else
Print "Number is odd"
End If
The MOD operator divides two numbers and returns only the remainder. For
example, the result of the expression 19 MOD 7 is 5. The numbers can be any
numeric expressions.
