    - Avoid "Open Worksheet" dialog I am opening an Excel spreadsheet in Word, and I want to avoid the "Open document in Workbook" dialog in which I have to select "Sheet 1." How can I avoid getting that dialog (and just open Sheet1 automatically)? (Do I modify the format (at Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto???)) (All my code is in Word, and I'm only using Excel as the repository so I can work with it in Word.) Here's the code I'm using to open the spreadsheet in Word: Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone Documents.Open FileName:="c:\4raw.xls", ConfirmConversions:=False, ReadOnly:=False, AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", PasswordTemplate:="", Revert:=False, WritePasswordDocument:="", WritePasswordTemplate:="", Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsAll TIA Tag: Duplicate Office Word 2003 documents Tag: 87962

    - Insert Excel graphs into the fields of a locked Word form. As part of our high school lab course, students collect data, graph it, and add it to their Word form labs. If the form is locked, students cannot insert the graph into the form field.

    - Take a sting and set it as text in a userform label Hello, I was wondering if there is a way in VBA to take a string set it as the text in a label for a userform rather than use the IDE to enter it through the properties window. To be more specific, I am reading cells from a Word Table and storing them as strings, then the user gets a list of the cells contents in the userform presented as labels next to checkboxes.

    - The Mysterious ^p and CR/LF I'm trying to unravel the mysteries of the ^p "character" and trying using search and replace. I have numerous ASCII text files. They unfortunately have solitary CR characters (Hex 0D) buried in the text, often in series, as well as the standard CR/LF. So, I thought I would use word to delete them. It's turned out to be a bigger task than I thought. These Hex 0D characters are shown in Word two ways using the Courier New font: 1. In the middle of a line, it appears as a box. 2. At the end of a line, it disappears next to the end of line marker even when the show formatting marks is turned on, so you can never really see them. A hex dump shows the characters to be Hex 0D0D0A. I have huge files I have to process, so I've made myself a macro to try to delete these evasive little characters. But it's been rather difficult. But here's one process I created that sort of works. It's a three pass routine: 1. Replace all LFs with a character string of "~~~%". This method exposes all the solitary CRs and Word internally coverts their display to paragraph marks. 2. Next step is to delete all the solitary CRs. 3. Finally, revert the true end-of-line markers "~~~%" back to "^p" and we are done. After that, the appearance of the text is correct and all the solitary CRs are gone. But there's a catch. All the CRs are now solitary CRs in the code and are no longer CR/LF even though it displays correctly. And I don't see a way to convert them back using a macro. I've tried replacing ^p with ^13^10, but that just adds an extra box character. Maybe it doesn't matter after the text file is saved. I'm stumped. I'm stumped. Is there a better way? -- .. jim ..

    - Delete double-mouseclick on a symbolbar icon Hello, I have a macro assigned to a button in a word XP-symbolbar-icon. A lot of my users learned in windows to double-click so they always double-click on the button to execute the macro. Because of the double-click the macro runs twice. The user doesn't understand why not double-click. It's hopeless to explain it. I want to catch tis error in my macro: after the first click the macro is executed.

    - DocVariables - Copy / PasteSpecial I populate a word doc from an excel spreadsheet using doc variables. This document will enventually go to a client, so I would like the DocVariables "removed", while keeping the values themselves. similar to a copy / pastespecial / values works in excel. I can accomplish this manually in word by highlighting the variable, hitting copy / paste special / unformatted text. However, when I try to do so in VBA, it seems to simply copy back the DocVariable. Here is the code: set wrdApp = Word.Application Dim myField As Field For Each myField In ActiveDocument.Fields Debug.Print myField.Code myField.Result.Select wrdApp.Selection.Copy wrdApp.Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdFormatPlainText) Next Why would this work manually, but not via VBA?

    - ChangeFileOpenDirectory reverts template??? Hi, I'm having this bizarre problem with some of my documents: I have two Word documents opened, Doc 1 and Doc2, both with attached templates. 1. I change the attached template to Doc2 (UI or AttachedTemplate property by code, the result is the same), setting the full path (not default), not just the name. 2. I save Doc2. 3. On Doc1 (based on a precise template one, this doesn't happen for all documents) I change de file open directory programatically (ChangeFileOpenDirectory method) --> Attached template to Doc2 doesn't change. 4. Close and re-open Doc2 --> Attached template to Doc2 reverts to what it was previously. If I attach several templates in a row it always "remembers" the one before the last one. Does anyone have an explanation for this? What could be happening? Why is this only happening whem issuing the ChangeFileOpenDirectory from documents (Doc1) based on this one exact template? What should I search for in the code of this template that can be done wrong? Although I have quite some experience with VBA, I did not write most of the code myself, so I really have no idea where to start searching. (I was asked to add a macro that would attach a template to all files in a folder, which I did looping all documents in the folder, opening, setting the AttachedTemplate to the full path of the template file, saving and closing, which should be pretty standard).

    - Can't Merge Cells in Word after Splitting and deleting Hi, I will try to explain my problem the best I can. I have a table and the first column's text went with 6 rows (in the 2nd column) so the first column was merged to show this. I split cells in the first column to go with the 6 adjacent rows, then I deleted some rows, and tried to remerge the first column and it won't give me the option to merge.

    - DAO OpenRecordset in Word 2000 VBA returns nothing I'm having an unusual problem with DAO and VBA in Word 2000. Here's the problem code: set myRecord = myDatabase.OpenRecordset(someQuery) "myDatabase" is an open database connection to an Access database file (mdb file), "myRecord" is a Recordset object, and "someQuery" is an SQL query string; e.g. "select * from thisTable where thisField=SomeValue" The problem is, if "someQuery" returns 0 (zero) rows, then myRecord isn't "set" - it remains uninitialized. Later on in the code, a test like this is used: do while myRecord.EOF = False ' do something loop This causes a problem in Word 2000 (but not later versions of Word) because "myRecord" is not set, so you get a "object variable or with block variable not set" error. My question is this: is the behavior of "OpenRecordset" different under Word 2000's VBA? Or have I been wrong all this time in assuming that if the query passed to OpenRecordset returned 0 (zero) rows, it would at least return an empty (i.e. EOF=True) recordset? Or is this maybe just a strange problem with a particular installation of Word/VBA/JET/DAO? Tag: Duplicate Office Word 2003 documents Tag: 87859

    - CTRL+Tab Gives VB Error Word 2003 I have a user who has reported a strange problem in Word. I have my doubts as to whether or not this problem is caused by Word, but since the user is getting a VB error in Word, I thought that I would start my research by posting the problem in this group. When the user hits CTRL+Tab she gets the following VB error. Error 91: Object variable or With block variable not set The user also uses a program called CrossEyes, which is supposed to be like the WordPerfect Reveal Codes command for Word. The user has noticed that if she opens CrossEyes and then closes it, she can then go in to Word and use CTRL+Tab without getting the VB error. This leads me to believe that one of my least favorite programs--CrossEyes--is the real culprit. Has anyone seen this problem before, or have an idea of what might be causing the error? --Tom P.S. I detest CrossEyes because the information that it gives is of limited use, not always accurate, and the program has become a crutch for our old WordPerfect users by helping them to continue to think in terms of how WordPerfect does things, which just prevents them from ever truly understanding Word. But that's just my opinion. Tag: Duplicate Office Word 2003 documents Tag: 87854

    - trapping run-time error 4198 I am experiencing a run-time error 4198 when comparing certain Word documents using vba (from Access 2000 - automating Word 2000). In general, I think it is caused when trying to compare documents that have already been compared. My problem is that I cannot trap the error. I have an On Error goto statement right before the doc.Compare filename statement, but it does not go to the error handler when the error occurs, instead presenting the 'Command failed' message to the User and then showing the yellow highlight on the Compare command when the 'Debug' button is clicked. I have tried setting the DisplayAlerts to each of the 3 different choices right before the Compare, all to no avail. Behaviour remains the same. The same code works fine for many other documents, but I want to gracefully be able to handle this problem, even if it is only to log the error and move on to the next file to be processed. Any ideas on why I can't trap this error? Anything different I can do? Any way I can detect if the file has already been compared, and thus avoid comparing when it would cause this error?

The word document already has some data and lots of pages in it and Im inserting charts in specific places. When I used to do the above task for Excel to Power- point then I could use the, Right click Format picture, of Size (Height, Width) and Position on Slide (Horizontal, Vertical) in order to place the charts in powerpoint in the exact position and dimension I want. But Im not able to see an analogous feature in word where I could specify the Position (Position on page - Horizontal and Vertical) of object/chart in Word. When I do right click on a picture in Word, then size tab has height and width (Good for me), but I dont have any tab for position. What we do have is a tab called Layout, in which the "Advanced" button has Absolute position ... to of the column and Absolute position .... below paragraph. Im not sure whether by using these 2 properties I will be able to position my chart in the place I want. Again, I have not been able to try the above because of 2 reasons:- a) If I copy paste a chart named as Chart1 in excel to Winword then what is the name of that object in word? For checking this I recorded a macro in word where I selected a newly pasted chart from excel and see that the code it produces is ActiveDocument.Shapes("Group 1570").Select Knowin the name of the chart in word seemed important to me, because as soon as im done pasting, the cursor in word moves to the new line or rather the chart object is no longer active in word. So, if it is not active then how do I apply positional and size properties to it? b) Secondly, Im not sure of the of the exact syntax for applying positional and size properties. When I record a macro in word where I change the Height/width/Abs Position Col/ Abs Position Para to 2 inches then I get lot of recorded code out of which following seemed relevant to me (I have snipped rest). Selection.ShapeRange.Height = 144# Selection.ShapeRange.Width = 144# Selection.ShapeRange.Left = 180# Selection.ShapeRange.Top = 126# Selection.ShapeRange.Left = InchesToPoints(2) Selection.ShapeRange.Top = InchesToPoints(2) Im not able to understand as to why the Left and Top (Probably the positonal parameters for object) is getting recorded twice and that too in different units (once as 180# and another time as InchesToPoints(2)). Also, I want to know one more thing. As I have already mentioned I have text data in word and I have left enough space so that when a new chart gets pasted the text data below the chart doesnt get shifted down. For example, in the below code Im first navigating to the page where I want to paste chart and then pasting it. In this whats happening is that, even my page title and rest text gets shifted. How to avoid this situation Sub StartTransferProcess(WkbookNam As String, ShtNam As String, ChtNam As String, _ Pageno As Byte, Height As Double, Width As Double, ColPos As Double, ParPos As Double) Set SWinword = GetObject(, "Word.application") Set Sdocument = SWinword.Documents(WordDocName) Workbooks(WkbookNam & ".xls").Activate Sheets(ShtNam).Select ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(ChtNam).Activate ActiveChart.ChartArea.Select ActiveChart.ChartArea.Copy Sdocument.Activate Sdocument.ActiveWindow.Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:=Pageno Sdocument.ActiveWindow.Selection.Paste ''' New code to be written for Positioning and sizing object End Sub Regards, HP India Tag: Duplicate Office Word 2003 documents Tag: 87808

    - Create Word document from Access Query - Import image based on pat Hi, I need to create a Word document using data from an Access query. I can do this successfully using a mail merge. One of the fields is the UNC path to an image. I would like to insert the image into the document each time a new record is read. For example <<Field1>> <<Field2>> <<Field6 - Pathname>> <<Field3>> <<Field4>> <<Field5>> --------------------------------------------------------------- Field6 - Pathname is replaced by the actual image. Can the image also be resized? I do this in access using If IsNull(Me.Expr1) Or IsEmpty(Me.Expr1) Then Me.Image30.Picture = "\\server\path\noimage.jpg" Else Image30.Picture = Me.Expr1 End If Where Expr1 is the path. Can I do similar in Word VBA? My end user requires the output in Word so they can further format it before incorporating it into a book. Have I confused everyone yet? thanks Scott Tag: Duplicate Office Word 2003 documents Tag: 87801

My Office Word 2003 keeps making unwanted duplicate copies of Word documents,
in particular e-mails copied from Outlook Express to Word, which are work
related -marine survey files.

The duplicates seem to be made automatically after the e-mail files have
been copied into Word folders.

I have been making these copies for over 6 years, but the problem only
started last January and I have not been able to correct / stop it. Does
anyone have any ideas?

Regards, David Moore

Hi Dave,

Try the Word General Questions usergroup. You might have better luck there.
