    - Saving HTML Fill In Forms I have created a fill in form in Word using the Web Tools toolbar. Then saved as a Web Page. The form will be sent to users who do not have Word but have a browser to access and fill in the Word form. How do I get the data the user fills in? When the user emails the form, I get the form back blank. Thanks for any input! Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76645

    - Parsing a Word doc and using data to create new doc I want to programatically parse a Word document and create a new Word document with the extracted data. I think creating a wizard/VB application to do this would be ideal. As an alternative, I guess I could create a macro. Does anyone have some VB code that I could look at?

    - Question on automating Dialogboxes in VBA Hello, I was wondering if the following is possible in VBA. I am running a model that pops a dialog box up once in a while - each time, the button I click to rerun the model is exactly the same, i.e. 'Run'. Is there anyway I can automate this process, so everytime the dialog box pops up, it automatically clicks the 'Run' button. If not VBA, what other program would be useful here. I was wondering if the answer might be as simple as being able to run a Newline function within a dialog box. Thanks. Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76636

    - How to deselect floating text box In Word 2000 I have a floating text box in a cell of an many-row table. I am trying to create a macro that will delete the box, the paragraph mark that it is anchored to, and the 3 blank paragraphs after it (all in the same cell). "Selection.ShapeRange.Delete" will delete the text box, but the cursor jumps to the top of the document. I tried some GoBack commands to bring the cursor back to where the box had been but they don't always take the cursor to the right location. What I really want to do is start the macro with the text box already selected by the user, then deselect the box and put the cursor immediately in front of it so I can delete the paragraph containing it. What code do I use to that is equivalent to "deselect the text box and put the cursor immediately before the box"? ("Collapse" puts the cursor in front of the text that is in the box, not before the box.) TIA, Vivian Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76615

    - Convert slide object to jpg I'm using "Send To Word" to get my slides and speaker notes to a Word document for further editing and reformatting. The slides are sent as "slide objects"; this results in an enormous Word file size. In m.p.powerpoint I asked if there is a way to get "Send To Word" - or some similar function - to send jpgs or some other image style. My other option is to convert the slide objects, programmatically, to jpgs. I tried the following: Selection.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.ConvertTo ClassType:= "Paint.Picture", DisplayAsIcon:=False but I get "Run-time error 5360: The server application, source file, or item cannot be found..." Is there a way in vba (or other way) to convert the slide objects to pictures? BTW, my workaround is to use SnagIt to capture the image of the slide object in the clipboard, delete the slide object, and paste the image in its place. Tedious for long documents, however!

    - Show/hide large pieces of a document? Hi, Here's an interesting challenge... I was asked to create an application that would let users choose paragraphs to show or hide using a checkbox. The basic idea is that they would look at several alternate paragraphs per page, choose one by checking its checkbox, and then generate the "final" version of the document, which would hide the non-checked paragraphs on each page. In some cases, entire pages could be shown or hidden with page-level checkboxes in addition to the paragraph-level checkboxes (e.g., if a page is checked, only show the paragraphs on that page that are also checked). I don't know where to start on this one. I've fiddled around with bookmarks and ranges, and neither seems to offer an easy answer. Can anyone offer any good suggestions to make this a straightforward kind of project? Thanks to anyone who can help... ...Jay Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76607

    - Repost: PDF four versions of a document then delete interim saved Word files I posted this the other day but it seems to have fallen off the radar screens because of the weekend. Thanks Mike So I'm working on this template and the client wants it to have the ability to make PDFs of four different versions of the same document... basically changing the logo to reflect the different businesses that are part of the corporation. Okay, I've got that all set up. A couple things are challenging me, though. 1. I've got a button the user can click to generate the four different PDFs. In order to do so, I have to give the document a different file name for each one, otherwise when I create the PDFs it would just overwrite the same PDF file and I'd only end up with one. So I modify the filename and do a "Save As..." and everything's cool. However, I'm unable to pass the path to the Acrobat Distiller printer so I have to have the user manually browse to the directory where the PDF files should be saved. Anyone know of a way I can programmatically pass the appropriate path to the Acrobat Distiller print dialog? Of course, I'd rather not have to have the Acrobat Distiller print dialog display at all but it doesn't seem there's a way to just have it all happen under the hood. Any pointers would be welcome. 2. Because I'm doing the "Save As...", I'm ending up with four separate .DOC files. When I create the file I initially save it with a compound filename, consisting of a filename string the user provides (I put up a dialog box requiring the user to enter a filename) with a string representing the initial logo. So, for example, the initial file might be named "Document1-logo1.doc". When I go through the PDF process, I modify the filename to reflect the change of the logo and do a "Save As...", ending up with three other files... "Document1-logo2.doc", "Document1-logo3.doc" and "Document1-logo4.doc". So the process is as follows: *Create "Document1-logo1.doc" *Print "Document1-logo1.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo1.pdf" *Save as "Document1-logo2.doc" *Print "Document1-logo2.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo2.pdf" *Save as "Document1-logo3.doc" *Print "Document1-logo3.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo3.pdf" *Save as "Document1-logo4.doc" *Print "Document1-logo4.doc" to Acrobat Distiller printer, yielding the default filename of "Document1-logo4.pdf" The client wants the process to end up with only the original file ("Document1-logo1.doc"), so I need to delete "Document1-logo2.doc", "Document1-logo3.doc" and "Document1-logo4.doc". I store the fully-qualified filenames that I've used as strings named "killfile1", "killfile2" and "killfile3" but when I attempt to delete the files using the language "kill killfile1" I get a "Runtime error '70', Permission denied". So it appears that I've got the instruction correct but there's something that prevents me from actually deleting the file. So my second question is how do I avoid the "Runtime error '70', Permission denied"? Or is there a way I can pass the preferred PDF filename and path directly to the Acrobat Distiller printer driver so I never have to do a "Save As..." to the Word document?? 3. When I create the file initially, the filename I use is constructed from user input (from the example above, the user would have typed "Document1" in the dialog box I put up) with a representative logo string ("-logo1"). If, at some point in the future, the user wants to revise the document, they'll open "Document1-logo1.doc". Now I have a problem because I don't have a user-entered string stored ("Document1"). So if they then click the PDF button, they end up with: "Document1-logo1.doc" "Document1-logo1.pdf" "Document1-logo1-logo2.doc" "Document1-logo1-logo2.pdf" "Document1-logo1-logo3.doc" "Document1-logo1-logo3.pdf" "Document1-logo1-logo4.doc" "Document1-logo1-logo4.pdf" And my file deletion code fails because it's never able to construct the proper "killfile1", "killfile2" and "killfile3" strings. <arggh> Any suggestions??

    - Word should have a temp file like cookies for unsaved documents. I do IT support for NDSU. One of the people I was helping yesterday had her laptop loose power. She didn't save her document and lost 15 pages she had typed. If there was a stored temp file for each document typed something like this could be retreved. It could save itself in a directory called temp and label as doc0001, and the next doc0002. It could save over itself say every 10 seconds. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

What I want to happen is for the fields to update (ie the macro to run) when the properties form is OK'd.

If not is there a way I can create a toolbar button that keeps with the template and doesnt disappear.

    - Disk is full error I have a Word document which contains a macro to update the entire document, which is connected to a toolbar button. The macro is as follows: Sub UpdateDocument() ' ' Macro1 Macro ' Macro recorded 8/25/2005 by mark ' Dim pRange As Word.Range For Each pRange In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges Do Until pRange Is Nothing pRange.Fields.Update Set pRange = pRange.NextStoryRange Loop Next End Sub When I run this macro it goes through the entire document, including the headers and footers, and updates all of the fields. In this document all of the headers are the same and I have a single fill-in field in the header in the first section (it contains several sections, but the headers are all set as "Same as Previous"). Therefore it asks me what I want to fill-in the field with. Every once in awhile it will ask me twice, which I think is odd because there is only one of these fields in the header. Then after I do this I try to save and it gives me an error that the disk is full (which it definitely is not). The error message is as follows: The disk is full. Free some space on this drive, or save the document on another disk. Try one or more of the following: *Close any unneeded documents, programs, and windows. *Save the document on another disk. I have tried these solutions and it still doesn't save. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you in advance, Mark64 Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76533

    - Macro Question: Syntax Error (Long) I previously posted this to the Microsoft Communities: _____________________ When I open a previously saved file and cancel options to enter a new number and form name, a debugging error message comes up (Run-time error â??4605â??). When the "end" option within that dialog box is selected, my cursor is placed within the header instead of in the document, and when I close out of the header/footer toolbar, Iâ??m taken back to the document, but the entire document is selected instead of me simply being within a certain cell or row. This debugging error does not happen when the form is being created as normal; this is only an issue when previously saved forms are opened to be edited. When the "debug" option within that dialog box is selected, I am taken into the Visual Basic editor and show the following macro: * * * * * * Sub AutoOpen() Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory Selection.WholeStory Selection.Fields.Update If ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial <> wdPaneNone Then ActiveWindow.Panes(2).Close End If If ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdNormalView Or ActiveWindow. _ ActivePane.View.Type = wdOutlineView Or ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type _ = wdMasterView Then ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdPageView End If ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekCurrentPageHeader ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.NextHeaderFooter Selection.WholeStory Selection.Fields.Update ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory End Sub * * * * * * The macro bombs out at â??ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.NextHeaderFooter.â?? ________________________________ The answer I received was to change the coding to this: Sub AutoOpen() Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory Selection.WholeStory Selection.Fields.Update If ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial <> wdPaneNone Then ActiveWindow.Panes(2).Close End If If ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdNormalView Or ActiveWindow. _ ActivePane.View.Type = wdOutlineView Or ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type _ = wdMasterView Then ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdPageView End If ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekCurrentPageHeader On Error resume next ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.NextHeaderFooter If err.number = 0 then on error goto 0 Selection.WholeStory Selection.Fields.Update End iF on error goto 0 ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory End Sub I did this, however, the new code works fine when functioning only with Word, but when the code tries to execute via an Access macro, we receive a â??Compile error: Syntax errorâ?? message. I believe the line â??ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.NextHeaderFooterâ?? generates this message. This Word macro runs via a macro initialized by a â??buttonâ?? inside an Access file. The Access macro is responsible for opening the Word document that will be utilized. The Word document is not opened prior to running the Access macro. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I figured out how to create the paragraphs and tables, and setting styles works from the code perspective. However, when I open the document none of the styles are applied. For instance, instead of a paragraph being "Heading 1", it will be "Normal + 16pt" and similar for everything else. The strange thing is that if I do exactly the same operations from JScript then it works fine. Does anyone know what's going on here?!? JScript (works) par = doc.Content.Paragraphs.Add(); par.Range.Text = "Heading"; par.Style = doc.Styles("Heading 1"); par.Range.InsertParagraphAfter(); C# (doesn't work) par = this.doc.Content.Paragraphs.Add(ref OptionalParam); par.set_Style(ref style); par.Range.Text = text; par.Range.InsertParagraphAfter(); Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76505

    - TOC to<>from ? I have a large manual with several sections. Sections might contain information about a subject, or directions (map) to a location, etc. I would like to use the table of contents as a home base for a reader to click to a page and then somehow go back to the table of contents much as the <Back> button would on a web browser. This is probably a simple question, but how can this be implemented? I have selected Tools | Options | Edit and unchecked the Cntrl-Click feature to enable a one click on an item in the TOC to go to the page. How can it be enabled to go BACK to the TOC easily? -Dale- Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76500

    - Control Word Document/ Current Instance from within Access Hi all. I am trying to customise Word for a particular template ( wanted to avoid macros in word ) I have 2 public variables: Dim wrd As New Word.Application Dim DC As Word.Document which get initialised: .... Set wrd = New Word.Application Set DC = wrd.Documents.Add("C:\Temp\My.dot") isPrepaired = HideAllToolbars(wrd, DC) ..... the bottom function hides all the toolbars exept my own - fine so far but when the user creates a new instance of word directly (through normal.dot) as long as my document is still open, no commandbars are there in that normal version of word :-(( I created a macro that re-enables all the available toolbars when closing my document so when my document is closed all is fine and word creates all the normal commandbars. Questions: How can I catch only the currentInstance I created in access and apply my hiding stuff only to that one ?? or Do I have to create a macro in the global normal.dot to enable expicitely toolbars when my document is open ? (wanted to avoid stuff like that) Many thanks for your help. Gina *** Function HideAllToolbars(curWRD As Word.Application, curDC As Word.Document) Dim i As Integer i = 1 curWRD.EnableCancelKey = wdCancelDisabled curWRD.WindowState = wdWindowStateNormal Do curWRD.CommandBars(i).Enabled = False i = i + 1 Loop While i <= (curWRD.CommandBars.Count) curWRD.CommandBars.AdaptiveMenus = False curWRD.CommandBars("Toolbar List").Enabled = False curWRD.CommandBars("Rechnung").Enabled = True curWRD.CommandBars("Rechnung").Visible = True curWRD.EnableCancelKey = wdCancelInterrupt End Function Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76482

    - Replace Dialog Hi, General question with WORD2000. I have a search string for the word "degree" which is to be replaced with the degree symbol followed by an F or C. Since the word "degree" may have any combination of upper and lower case letters I have search strings defined as: -[Dd][Ee][Gg][Rr][Ee][Ee]> -[Dd][Ee][Gg][Rr][Ee][Ee][Ss]> [Dd][Ee][Gg][Rr][Ee][Ee]> [Dd][Ee][Gg][Rr][Ee][Ee][Ss]> Is there a better way to define the search strings? I am using the EditReplace dialog since some "degree" words may not have to be replaced. Thanks in advance for any hints. Jerry Bodoff Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76475

    - GetActiveWindow through automation I have a Word 2002 template which has a routine to prevent the user from saving the file, by removing Close, Save, Save as, and Exit menu items, disabling the Save tool from the toolbar, and disabling the top-right 'X' button in Word. It does this using the following code: DeleteMenu GetSystemMenu(GetActiveWindow,False),6,1024 This works fine if I just double click the .dot to create a new file, but when I open through automation, GetActiveWindow always returns 0 (zero), so the X button is not disabled. Any ideas anyone? Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76474

    - Acessing Paragraph Lines? Hi, General question with WORD2000. I converted some text to a 2 column table which has fixed column widths. If the column 1 text starts with an alphabetic then columns 1 and 2 in that row are merged. If the text wraps to more than 1 line I would like to be able to retrieve each line and place a manual line break at the end of the line (need this for other processing). The text font is a proportional font (Arial) and is a given and cannot be changed. Is this possible to do? I looked all over and cannot seem to find anything that would help. I seem to remember there is a TextWidth function but it seems that it does not exist in VBA. Any hints or solutions would be greatly appreciated. If API's are needed that is acceptable. Thanks in advance for any help. Jerry Bodoff Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76473

    - inner editing doc files Is there an application or a plug that represents doc files in two panes so that one pane shows the source doc file and another pane shows the resulting representation as seen by the user? The analogy is to Dreamveawer where it is possible to simultaneously work in both design and source views. Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76469

    - The order in which Global Templates are loaded? Hi, Could anyone tell me in what order Global Templates in the Startup folder are loaded when Word first opens? I recall something about template loading in reverse Alphabetical order but have not been able to find the article in which I had read that. The reason that I am asking is that it seems that Adobe is loading in Word and locking the toolbars collection, preventing other toolbars and menus from being handled by other global templates. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could either confirm this or tell me the order in which templates really do load into Word? Thank you. Tag: Avery 9490 Labels Tag: 76464

Need to print these labels and can't find template in Word.

Take a ruler, measure the labels and create a custom label to match. It
should take you all of 10 minutes.
