    - custom ui editor getting rid of code I don't know if it something I am doing or not - but it is driving me crazy. I am using the Custom UI Editor to customize the ribbon in Word 2007. I create my ribbon and saved to my template. I then opened the template and added the RibbonControl vba code and a module containg some code for showing message boxes, etc. Saved the template. All code is present. Then I went back into the Custom UI Editor to make changes, saved it to the template, but when I opened the template in Word, all my previous modules and code are gone. What am I doing wrong? Help! Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113477

    - Macro execution by Autotext entry Hello, Is there any way to get an autotext entry to execute a macro? In other words, I'd like to create an autotext entry that when the user gets the pop-up to press enter, that when they do, it executes a macro. I'm pretty sure there is no way to do this but I just thought I'd ask to be sure. I'm using Office 2003 but 2007 available. Thanks, Peter Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113473

    - Word interop from c# - Find replace sometimes not working I use the following code to replace all instances of "[VAR]" with "value to set" in a word document : Word.Document document; ... Word.Range rng = document.Content; rng.Find.ClearFormatting(); Object findText = "[VAR]"; Object matchCase = Type.Missing; Object matchWholeWord = Type.Missing; Object matchWildcards = Type.Missing; Object matchSoundsLike = Type.Missing; Object matchAllWordForms = Type.Missing; Object forward = true; Object wrap = Word.WdFindWrap.wdFindStop; Object format = Type.Missing; Object replaceWith = "value to set"; Object replace = Word.WdReplace.wdReplaceAll; rng.Find.Execute(ref findText, ref matchCase, ref matchWholeWord, ref matchWildcards, ref matchSoundsLike, ref matchAllWordForms, ref forward, ref wrap, ref format, ref replaceWith, ref replace); On most pc's, this ALWAYS works fine, but on some pc's, it NEVER works. The text is not replaced, nothing happens. I had this problem 2 times until now, while 13 other machines worked perfectly. Then I tried : ... Object replaceWith = Type.Missing; Object replace = Type.Missing; while(rng.Find.Execute(ref findText, ref matchCase, ref matchWholeWord, ref matchWildcards, ref matchSoundsLike, ref matchAllWordForms, ref forward, ref wrap, ref format, ref replaceWith, ref replace) == true) { rng.Text = "value to set";// The range is now changed to the found "[VAR]" instance, we can replace it rng = document.Content;// reset to loop further } This also does or does not work on the same systems. The basic problem is, that the Find.Execute method does NOT select the found text part on those pc's where it does not work. Also when I tried to work through Selection.Find (instead of using Range.Find), nothing changed. So at this moment, I have before me 2 almost identical pc's, with the same windows and office version (office XP SP3), handling the same document, and on 1 pc it works, on the other one it does not. I checked all Word options and settings, there is no difference. Does anyone have any idea where this is coming from ? Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113470

    - Word 2007 Font.Color fun Can someone please help me understand what gives with Font.Color values in Word 2007? Recording a macro to see the Font values for Heading 1 style in a new 2007 document, the Color value is: .Color = -738148353 I don't think this corresponds to an RGB value, even though the 2007 VBA Help says the Font.Color property: "Returns or sets the 24-bit color for the specified Font object. Can be any valid WdColor constant or a value returned by Visual Basic's RGB function." If I record a macro where I select Heading 1 style, choose Modify > Format > Font, click OK to close the Font dialog, then OK again to close the Modify Style dialog, the Color value is: .Color = 9527094 Exact (?) same colour, very different value, which is an RGB colour. Does anyone know how to get the correct RGB colour value in the first place without having to drill down through dialogs? I need the RGB colour for a VB application. Many thanks for any help.

    - inserting autotexts into word document Hi, I have a question in regards to autotexts in word 03. At the moment, there are 4 autotexts being used in my word document template. Each autotexts have their own contents. For example, we have autotexts for "methodology", autotexts for "executive summary", "Bibliography", and "Glossary" To insert these autotexts into word document is via a userform. User can click the ones he/she wants to incorporate into his/her word report. My question is there will be a case where user needs to add another autotexts to the existing word report. For example, in the existing report, there are methodology, executive summary, bibliography and glossary. Now, he wants to add another autotexts called "Sections". This autotexts, by our standard, should go between "executive summary" and "bibliography". My headache is whether there're some way of inserting this new autotexts somewhere between executive summary and bibliography?

    - Copy from Excel to Word - dropping characters I am not sure if my problem here is a Word or Excel problem. In the code below, I am copying data from an Excel worksheet to a Word doc. It works great, except only the first 1024 characters in a cell are getting copied. The rest is getting dropped. I have verified the data (over 1024) is in the Excel cell when it is copied. I can't figure why this is happening. I know some eariler versions of Excel had display limitations. I have also tried formatting the worksheet before it is copied to make sure all data is visible in the cell before it's copied and it still drops char over 1024. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    - Print Continuous Page Numbers Excel & Word Document I need to print a Excel & Word document as 1 combined document. It is very important the page numbers be accurate because it is a legal doument. The Excel part prints first, and then a 5 or 6 page word document prints at the end. The page number format on the entire document is "Page 4 of 20" (4=Current Page, 20=Total pages both documents). I have all the code working except I can't figure out how to start the Word document with page 16 (Assuming 15 is the last page of the Excel document that is printed).

    - Question regarding an Excel to Word link in a Word doc Hello, If this is posted in the wrong group, sorry, and could you please direct me to what group. I have a word doc and an excel sheet that are linked. The word doc has fields that are link to cells in the excel spreadsheet. Everything works fine until I try to email it to someone. The way the links are setup are as follows: Both the spreadsheet and the docs are going to live in a "Z: drive" on someone's network. I mapped a "Z: drive" on my home network (Vista to W2K machine) and setup the sheets. They work fine here but when I send them to my buddy they do not have z:\directory\sub dir\sub dir\source . They have 10\100\100\100\directory\sub dir\sub dir\source. My question is: Is there a way to make the links point to "Z" and stay pointed. Thanks Larry C Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113446

    - Access denied error when trying to delete a file - Word 2003 I have developed a template that is used by greater than 100 users that is used for a particular type of document. To ensure consistent file naming, I have developed a routine that determines a filename based upon the document variables for each file (called SmartFName). I have tied this routine into FileSave. The routine performs the following: 1. Checks to ensure that the document variables used for the file name are set. 2. Determines the SmartFName based upon the document variables. 3. Compares the SmartFName to the existing filename. 4. If the same, saves the file. 5. If not the same, it prompts the user asking if the SmartFName should be applied. 6. If No, it saves the file. 7. If Yes, it performs a ActiveDocument.SaveAs to the SmartFName. 8. It then prompts the user asking if the old file should be deleted. 9. If Yes, a Kill oldpath filename is performed. It is at this point, an "Access Denied" error is generated sometimes. Thanks in advance for all help. -- Tim Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113436

    - issue with creating template for letter Hi, I have a problem in regards to word template for office 03. I have a template designed to generate a company letter. Like any normal letter, it has date, sender, address, regarding, body of the letter, and signature of the manager. So, when user runs the template, a userform comes up. They can then fill out all empty textfields which are then placed into the word document. This works so far. However, my problem here is about the body of the letter. Since i use {DOCVARIABLE mybodytext} in the word document, all the texts entered or typed in by user via userform is treated as a variable. This is something i didn't anticipate or give it a thought when designing this template. Today, i have one of my colleagues wanting to create a letter to be sent to his client. (By the way, i use a normal text-box in the userform that allows user to enter multiple lines) He put in some bullet points to the text-box in the userform as if it was for a normal report. After pressing the button "ok", all the DOCVARIABLE-s are replaced with values from the textboxes and it worked. However, there is a problem with the bullet points. It didn't look like bullet points at all. The other problem is with the gap spacing between the previous line and the next line. Obviously, he couldn't fix them individually with the spacing and bullet points as they all are one variable. I must have taken the wrong approach here. I wonder if there are any better approaches that may help me out. Basically my aim is to create a template so that any users who want to write letter to their client, can actually use it. Your help is greatly appreciated Thank you in advance Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113424

    - Macro to select ALL tables (with different styles) in a word docum sorry if it is a repost(?) How to select ALL the tables (with different Table styles) in a word document (by exemple to apply a "table formatting macro" or a new table style to all the tables in the document at once). I cannot select all the tables at once using the Styles and Formatting pane because the documents have several table with different table styles. I would like to avoid scrolling in the document and hold the CTL key + click in every tables. I have looked for selecting all the tables using the the Find (F5) function in word, but I found "tables" nowhere in the options list.

    - if chkbox is ticked then un-strikethrough textbox text Hi, I want to make a word document into a form that I can both protect and also allow users to input data into, but I don't know if I'm going about it the right way. I'm using the control toolbox to create several checkboxes and adjacent textboxes on my document. I have put some default text into the control boxes which I want to make strikethrough format out by default. I don't know how to do this. Essentially, I want to allow the users to select the checkbox beside the text to unstrike it, thus enabling the text to be shown normally. So that the user is picking specific clauses that they want to form part of their contract. I don't know where to put the code. For example, if I was using a userform the code would be part of the form. In this case, is the code part of the thisdocument object and if so what event should I use e.g. click, change, gotfocus? If my textbox is called txt1 and my checkbox is chk1 can you give me some example code on how I do this. Kind regards Dylan Dawson Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113355

    - macro for displaying section field +1 digit? The Section field, when added into a document, displays an arabic numeral showing the section number where it resides. What syntax would cause display of the section number, incremented by one digit? (ie, the Section field, if placed in section 2, displays a "2" but with this new syntax, would display a "3"; if positioned in section 12 it would display a "13", etc.) Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113327

    - "Probable VIRUS Detected" message I create a very short macro for a particular form document and get this message whenever I open the document. It is a very simple macro that turns off the document protection when the user reaches the last Text form field. How do I stop this from appearing? Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113326

    - removong 'blank' pages hi, I have code that produces various documents. Now, in the main, the documents are printed on a duplex printer and so the document contains extra page breaks to ensure that certain pages dont print on the reverse of the previous page (ie it inserts 2 page breaks instead of 1) However, sometimes i'll be printing on a single sided printer and as such i end up getting a load of 'blank' pages (apart from the header and footer). Is tehre a way i can loop thru all pages in the doc and if there is nothing in the main body of a page then it removes the page? Thanks. Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113318

    - Hiding open document Hi, is it possible to write code that hides the open word document from view (but doesn't actually close it) and vice versa. I know you can hide workbooks in excel, but i cant see that you can do the same in Word so cant even begin to try and code it. Cheers. Tag: AutoOpen macro doesn't run Tag: 113317

this macro issupposed to automatically display the AutoText menu when a
document is created from a template:

Sub AutoOpen()
CommandBars("AutoText").Visible = True
End Sub

When I create a new document from the template, and tell Word to enable
macros, a new document opens but the autotext menu does not display. Why?

AutoOpen works when you *Open* a document or template. When creating
docments from templates, you need *AutoNew* (You cannot "open" somehting that
does not exists...).
