    - Hide or collapse section Hello, I have a form with about 8 sections. Not all section may be used at once so in order not to see it or print it, could I hide it or collapse it until it needs to be used then have the user click on it to open? Example: Thee are three (3) setions for Collateral. Section one is for the main collateral and sections two and three are for additional collateral. If there is only the main and one additional collateral, I do not want the third section of additional collateral to show or print. This will make the form smaller and more user friendly I think. Please let me know if there is an possiblitiy to make this happen. Thanks!! Tag: Clear Style and Formatting Tag: 97619

    - Adding control to the document and focus I dynamically add a control to the active document with "this.Controls.AddControl " which is triggered by the text the user types. After the control appears, the next letter the user types overwrites it with their text. It acts like the control is selected, but the control never has focus (according to it's events/properties), yet their cursor is no longer blinking on the document.

    - Explanation of Automation Error Please The standard VBA InputBox does not provide a means of determining if the user clicked on cancel or just left the input field blank. I put together a UserForm to perform the role of an InputBox that allows me to determine which user action occurred. I basically built a form with a label, a textbox, an OK commandbutton and a Cancel command but. I assigned "Cancel" = True for the Cancel commandbutton. In my code I set the value of the textbox to "**Canceled by user**" if the user clicked the cancel button, clicked Esc, or clicked the close form "X." While perhaps crude, it worked like I expected. Next I thought I might set the value of the .Tag property to "**Canceled by user**" if one of the actions above occurred and set .Tag to "TextBox1.Text" if the OK command button was pressed. This worked also except for when the user closed the form with the "X" button. On that action, the VB Editor returned an: Run Time Error '2147418105(8011007)' Automation Error. The callee (server [not server application]) is not available and dissappared. All connections are invalid. The call may have been executed. After stepping through my code I can "almost" understand why that occurs. However, I don't understand why it occurs when I use .Tag vice .TextBox1.Text Here is my code with both variations. The current arrangement uses .TextBox1.Text. It works as expected. If you change the arrangement and use .Tag, the error occurs on the line: CallInputBox = myFrm.Tag Main Macro: Sub ScratchMacro() Dim myStr As String myStr = CallInputBox("User Name", "What is your name?") If myStr = "**Canceled by user**" Then Exit Sub Else MsgBox myStr End If End Sub Function opens the UserForm: Function CallInputBox(ByRef pTitle As String, ByRef pPrompt As String, _ Optional ByRef pDefualt As String) As String Dim myFrm As myInputBox Set myFrm = New myInputBox myFrm.Caption = pTitle myFrm.Label1 = pPrompt myFrm.TextBox1 = pDefualt myFrm.Show CallInputBox = myFrm.TextBox1.Text 'CallInputBox = myFrm.Tag Unload myFrm Set myFrm = Nothing End Function UserForm code: Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() If Me.TextBox1.Text = vbNullString Then MsgBox "Please enter your name in the text field provided" Me.TextBox1.SetFocus Else Me.Tag = Me.TextBox1.Text Me.Hide End If End Sub Private Sub CommandButton2_Click() Me.TextBox1.Text = "**Canceled by user**" 'Me.Tag = "**Canceled by user**" Me.Hide End Sub Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer) If CloseMode = 0 Then Me.TextBox1.Text = "**Canceled by user**" 'Me.Tag = "**Canceled by user**" End If End Sub If I step through the code and close the Userform with the "x" I can see that the UserForm_QuerryClose Event (and Terminate Event) fires before the Function CallInputBox gets its value. So why does myFrm.TextBox1.Text work when myFrm.Tag throws the error? Also interested in other ideas to streamline or improve on this UserForm idea. Thanks. Tag: Clear Style and Formatting Tag: 97610

    - Watermark only appears in first section I have a Word document with nine sections. None of the sections are linked because there is specific text in each header. From an Access database, I have code that opens the Word document, replaces a bunch of bookmarks, updates some fields and the table of contents, saves the document, and exits. Now, I have to add a watermark. After spending way too much time coming up with a solution, it turns out that the code only writes the watermark in the first section. So I am looking for any help, advice, tips, code samples, or anything else you can think of that will help me out (and take pity on me, as I am a PowerBuilder developer by trade, acting as a VB/VBA developer as a favor to my boss). Thanks, Glenn Harland Here's the code: wmtext = IIf(IsNull(watermark_text.Value), "", watermark_text.Value) For ctr = 1 To oTemp.Sections.Count For idx = 1 To 3 With oTemp.Sections(ctr).Headers(idx).Shapes.AddTextEffect(powerpluswatermarkobject1, wmtext, "Times New Roman", 1, False, False, 0, 0) .TextEffect.NormalizedHeight = False .Line.Visible = False .Fill.Visible = True .Fill.Solid .Fill.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(192, 192, 192) .Fill.Transparency = 0.5 .Rotation = 315 .LockAspectRatio = True .Height = oWord.InchesToPoints(2.27) .Width = oWord.InchesToPoints(7.95) .WrapFormat.AllowOverlap = True .WrapFormat.Side = wdWrapNone .WrapFormat.Type = 3 .RelativeHorizontalPosition = wdRelativeHorizontalPositionMargin .RelativeVerticalPosition = wdRelativeVerticalPositionMargin .Left = wdShapeCenter .Top = wdShapeCenter End With Next Next Tag: Clear Style and Formatting Tag: 97599

    - VBA Runtime Error 5281 I'm getting a randome Runtime Error #5281 when I run a macro that creates a paragraph style in a document. The error says something like the style I'm trying to create is based on too many styles. The funny thing about this is that if I quit out of Word and load the macro again, it doesn't necessarily happen. I've created 120 style macros. When a user activates a User Form through a command bar, a selection of buttons are available to apply style to text. You highlight the text and then click a button. It checks to see whether the style is already created and if it isn't it creates the style, then applies it to the selected text. It was very odd. It was working fine yesterday. Then, when I created a few more style macros, it suddenly started giving me the error. After closing and opening the project template, it then allowed me to cycle through all the macros with no error. I don't know what is going on. I couldn't even find the error when I checked with Microsoft. Help Tag: Clear Style and Formatting Tag: 97586

    - Add Header footer to word doc Hi, I'm currently developing a documents manager that stores th documents in sql server. The application is developed in classic ASP sqlserver and pffice automation. The application lets you program circuit o responsabilities and many other features. I use IExplorer and DSOFramer ActiveX Office Control to process and print and perform other processes to office docs. Currently I have found a solution having 2 instances of dsoframer o the page. I use vbvscript to control the instances. I open a templat (.dot) into the first dsoframer control instance (lets call it oDodT) Then Word Document (.doc) into the another instance of dsoframe control (lets call it oDOcD). Select wholestory from oDocD, selec bookmark("doc_content") from oDocT. Then do PasteandFormat to oDocT. S this way the application lets you select between templates to print you docs. But have a problem with some documents written in word 97 found in man companies nowadays. When the content is pasted, oooppssss, somethin extrange occurs. The normal text becomes Italic and the italic Tex becomes Normal. So I decided to follow another way to give header and footer to offic docs. Instead of pasting the contents of docs to templates I want t ADD header and footer to Docs. I'm not an expert on this. I'm a senior web apps developer.

    - Word vb altered by Outlook or mail filter software? Is it possible that the process of emailing using Outlook (combined with company email filters) could do anything to alter the state of vb code and vb controls? I emailed (using Lotus Notes) a vb document complete with vb controls/userforms, I had thoroughly tested, to others in remote locations to do further testing in the true environment. They received document ok, and the functionality worked when they opened the document there, but when they returned it to me, it was corrupted, it would open up stuck in design mode, the code was getting mixed up, the controls were getting renamed, such as cmdEdit would become cmdEdit1, then cmdEdit11, etc. We thought we pinned it down to them working on the document while opening it from Outlook instead of saving first to server/hard drive, then editing, then re-attaching, as they were also emailing directly from Outlook, instead of saving the document, then attaching to email. But when they completely saved/closed the document, then attached it, it was still corrupted upon receipt by me. I am beginning to wonder if there are any known issues between Outlook/Word, and/or if spam filtering software used by companies could be tinkering with the code somehow, because when I receive the corrupted document, it still works fine on their end, and the only difference is that it's been transported via email.

    - Determine which toolbar button was pressed? Okay, I would like to dynamically build a menu of items to be inserted. This menu would be created based upon the existence of files in a certain directory. The filename of each item would be used as the name of the menu button for each item. Everytime one of those dynamically-created buttons is pressed, I'd like it to call a bit of code that inserts the same-named item. The only way I can think of to do this (without maintaining a list of the possible items to insert somewhere), would be to call one standard macro which knows what button on the toolbar was pressed, as the button's name would correspond to the file's name.

    - Text Formfields? Hi, I've created a userform with a textbox that allows the user to enter multiple lines of text and use the Enter key to add additional paragraphs. I'm trying to move this text to a text formfield but it's pulling out the hard carriage returns. I know that if the user was filling out the formfield directly, they would be able to use the Enter key within the field. I've already tested the code to ensure that it works, for example, when I use a simple bookmark (instead of the formfield) and it does. The obvious solution is to use a bookmark but this option isn't viable due to other issues. Any suggestions on getting the text formfield to recognize the hard carriage return?

    - Grammar checking error The checker could be made to detect conjunctions, and to not flag conjoined words as different parts of speech. An example: "I would like to call him or her to get the move scheduled." The grammar checker flagged "her," suggesting that "she" was the appropriate word. The "Explain" button resulted in the (not very) sage advice that the "marked pronoun needs to reflect its function in your sentence." Of course, its function is as an object, and "she" is used for a subject. In any case, to be consistent, "him" should have been (incorrectly) flagged for a change to "he," matching the suggested "she." ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Controls Collection + VBA Hi, I have placed some controls (from View -> Toolbars -> Control Toolbox) on the word form. I 'm restricted to use controls from this toolbox only. What i have been asked is to have a button on a word form and when that button is clicked, i must display using a msgbox, the name of the control, its caption and some other properties of the control.

    - VBA built-in object names auto-switching to lowercase--why? I'm working on code that frequently uses the Fields collection, but when I type something into the VBA editor, the word "Fields" is automatically switched to lowercase, like this: ActiveDocument.fields.Update Normally, it would automatically be made uppercase, so I'm assuming the VBA editor is indicating some sort of problem by making it lowercase--but what? Why is this happening? Tag: Clear Style and Formatting Tag: 97442

Hi vbaNOOB,

clearformatting applies
to the find-, replace- and the selection-object.

Either you select the paragraph

or use

ActiveDocument.Paragraphs(1).Range.Font.Reset

hmm,

you might have to reset the paragraphs style
to "normal" in addition.

And if you want to replicate whatever Word does perfectly:
WordBasic.ClearFormatting

(I'm not sure what it does exactly, either)
