    - Print macro which automatically identifys default printer Problem - I have several printers with different numbers of trays (some 2, some 3) and they're diferent types they call their trays different names. I create print macros to print letter head (first page from top tray, other pages from lower tray, then entire copy on white for file) until now I've been creating print macros for each type of printer but it's getting time consuming to amend them and visit each PC to load normal on. Any ideas how to write a print macro which can detect which printer you're connected to and print leterheads? Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56935

    - How do I number equations in a document using field codes I wish to number a series of equations in a document and cross reference them later however, I do not want to have a caption before the equation (i.e. NOT equation x.x) and wish to include the chapter number in the reference.

    - Problems when opening word template on web server Hi! My problem is that I have a word template located on a webserver. The clients open this through a webpage that has a link to a shortcut (.lnk) to the template. (this solution is recomended by MS , http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278627) . On some computers this works fine, the templates create a dialogue and everything is OK. But on some computers , after the "File download" dialogue, nothing more happens. A file download progress dialogue flashes by and then nothing happens. Can this be some security issue? On one computer this solution works fine if the webserver is located on the intranet, but not when he tries to do the same thing over the internet. Help on this matter is highly appreciated!

    - Find & Replace Question Hi all, Here's what I need to be able to do: Sample Text: Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb; Mary had a little lamb (forgot what comes after) Now, assuming that all the 'lamb's are in Bold, I need to Find and Replace all Bold words and tag them appropriately. So, the answer would be: Mary had a little <BOLD>lamb</BOLD>, little <BOLD>lamb</BOLD>, little <BOLD>lamb</BOLD>; Mary had a little <BOLD>lamb</BOLD> (forgot what comes after) Now, if I find and Replace and use Bold Formatting, the original text is taken text away, leaving me with this: Mary had a little <BOLD></BOLD>, little <BOLD></BOLD>, little <BOLD></BOLD>; Mary had a little <BOLD></BOLD> (forgot what comes after) So, how do you think I should be able to code this? Please don't tell me to go through the text, word by word... Thank you for your suggestions and for reading. Vince Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56925

    - Linking Excel files that could have a variable path name? I am working on a large document with multiple linked spreadsheets. This document and spreadsheet will always have the same file names but will be located in different directories depending on the user. I thought I could do an ASK field then a REF field but it does not recognized the REF field inside the quotes of the LINK field. I do know that all the files will be in the same directory so if I could tell it just to look where the Word document is for all the spreadsheets it would work. Does anybody have any other ideas or help me figure out to get the REF field inside a LINK field to work? Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56920

    - How to move the active document? SaveAs does not change ActiveDocument How does one move the active doc; this issue is givimg all sorts of problems. I've tried several solutions but not work reliably. For instance, I thought I'd perform a SaveAs from within Word; that should move the Active Document pointer or whatever it's called to the newly saved doc; the orig doc should be closed. Then, use Kill to delete the orig file. This approach works fine on some machines, on other machines it fails with error 70 permission denied. The orig file is still open on some machines (but not others). On those machines I can see that the file exits in both locations, and the open file is the orig file. Why is word so inconsistent with this fundemental behavior? Via menu choices, in all cases SaveAs moves the current file to the "new" file. I am programming in Word 2002 and the machines that have this issue are Word 2000 - but the saveas behavior is so basic that I can't imagine that it's deliberately different programming this in the two versions. I have doevents all over the place. And, if I try to close the word doc in it's original location, I error out with "Bad File Name", when I can see the file is still at that location. Frankly programming word is a real pita. Handy when it works but terrible getting it there. Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56919

    - Word VBA book recommendations I would like to buy a Word VBA book. In looking at Amazon, the "Word VBA 2000 Developers Handbook" (something like that) seems to be the best. Would anybody agree or disagree? Also, all the WOrd VBA books are a little dated. Does anybody know if any new editions are slated to come out? If I am running Word 2003 on XP Pro, what kind of problems may arise from using a book meant for Word 2000? Thanks for any responses. Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56903

    - Run-time Error '4608' Value Out of Range Word 2000 This has been driving my nuts for the last couple of days. I have the code below in a set of fairly extensive macros. This code has been working flawlessly for months. Recently, I've been working on adding some error trapping to the project, but I haven't touched this particular subroutine. Now when I run this code it sometimes gives me the following error: Run-time Error: '4608' Value Out of Range Here's the code (I've marked the line that causes the error with ">>>"). ***************** Sub PasteLocate() ' Checks for the existance of the required bookmarks and document variables. CheckRequiredBookmarks ' Pastes the Locate into the document. Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdStory Selection.Paste ' Bookmarks the record in the document using the MIN or NIC as part of the bookmark name. Selection.GoTo what:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:="StartOfRecord" Selection.Extend Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdStory BookmarkName = "Record" & RecordNumber If Override Then BookmarkName = "Override" & BookmarkName ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\Sel").Copy BookmarkName ' Finds the MIN or NIC in the selected text, creates a range covering that location, and ' bookmarks the range using the MIN or NIC as part of the bookmark name. StartPos = InStr(1, Selection.Text, Chr(13) & RecordType & "/", vbTextCompare) + 4 RangeStart = Selection.Start + StartPos RangeEnd = RangeStart + RecordNumberLength >>> Set RecordNumberRange = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=RangeStart, End:=RangeEnd) <<< BookmarkName = RecordType & RecordNumber If Override Then BookmarkName = "Override" & BookmarkName ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Name:=BookmarkName, Range:=RecordNumberRange ' Finds the MRI in the selected text, creates a range covering that location, and ' bookmarks the range using the MRI as part of the bookmark name. StartPos = InStr(1, Selection.Text, MRITag, vbTextCompare) + 3 RangeStart = Selection.Start + StartPos EndPos = InStr(StartPos + 1, Selection.Text, " ", vbTextCompare) - 1 RangeEnd = Selection.Start + EndPos Set RecordNumberRange = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=RangeStart, End:=RangeEnd) BookmarkName = "MRI" & cbMRI If Override Then BookmarkName = "Override" & BookmarkName ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Name:=BookmarkName, Range:=RecordNumberRange ' Collapses the selection, inserts a paragraph, and redefines the StartOfRecord bookmark. Selection.Collapse (Down) Selection.TypeParagraph ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\StartOfSel").Copy "StartOfRecord" BottomOfDocument = True End Sub ***************** I've checked the values of RangeStart and RangeEnd, and they are well within the block of text being processed (i.e. Neither value is beyond the end of the document or anything like that). I also tried putting RecordNumberRange in the declarations, but that didn't make any difference one way or the other. Curiously, the second Set RecordNumberRange command has never caused an error. The bizzare thing is that the error doesn't happen all the time. For the last two days, I've been getting the error about 90% of the time. But just now I completed a test that ran this subroutine more than 50 times, and I didn't get a single error. The thing is, I didn't change anything! The code that just ran 50+ times without an error is the SAME code that was previously causing an error 90% of the time. There were literally NO changes. Now, I could just trap this error with On Error Resume Next, but I would prefer to know what's causing of the error. One thing that I am wondering about is the document itself. I've been using the document for months--adding and deleting large section of text, creating the deleting bookmarks, running my code and then undoing everything, etc. I'm wondering if the document is becoming corrupt, and maybe the code needs to be copied to a fresh document. Is that possbile? Another thing that I'm wondering about is the fact that I've added more modules. Initially, all the code was contained in the ThisDocument module. With the addition of the error trapping features I've been developing, I've added 2 more modules--one that declares a couple of public variables, and one that contains and Option Explicit statement and declares a function for passing information from the Err object to a button on a custom form. Could it be that something about one of those modules is causing the problem? Any ideas? --Tom Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56885

    - Updating text boxes..... Hi Folks, On my form, users can enter data directly into a text box, or they can past it into the text boxs from the clipboard data with a special "Paste from 3rd Party App" button that I have done. When they type the data in themselves I have a little Procedure : Private Sub TextBox1_Change() TextBox1 = StrConv(TextBox1, vbProperCase) End Sub To make sure the names are property formatted etc. The problem is that when I : "Paste from 3rd Party App" none of the formatting is applied to the text boxes! How would I go about getting them all updated? The only way I came up with was to maybe have a new procedure that updated every textbox every time it was ran, so something like: Sub Update() TextBox1 = StrConv(TextBox1, vbProperCase) TextBox2 = StrConv(TextBox1, vbProperCase) TextBox3 = StrConv(TextBox1, vbProperCase) TextBox4 = StrConv(TextBox1, vbProperCase) End Sub and also still have; Private Sub TextBox1_Change() Call Update End Sub Private Sub TextBox2_Change() Call Update End Sub Private Sub TextBox3_Change() Call Update End Sub Private Sub TextBox4_Change() Call Update End Sub But their must be a better way?

    - Any way to "size" an INCLUDEPICTURE when it's included? Hi, I'm using Mail Merge to include pictures from a directory like so: { INCLUDEPICTURE "{ MERGEFIELD thePath }" } Is there any way I can set the size of the included picture apart from by scaling it on disk when I write it in the first place? I would gain a lot of speed by not having to scale the jpegs as I write them. What I would like to do is something like this: { INCLUDEPICTURE " { MERGEFIELD thePath }" \Width=120 \Height=256 } Is anything like this possible? Thanks.

    - How to place text blocks from another program? I'm running Word from an MS Access app, iterating through a file of people and information on them, and formatting the Word doc as I go. No problem just plugging in names, addresses, comments as long as I start at the top and work down. What I'd like to do, however, is place a block of text on the left of the page that contains the person's mailing address - and then place another block of text on the right side of the page that contains the person's telephone numbers and email addresses. The two blocks would be of varying sizes/lengths for each person and different sizes/lengths between themselves. Each block is already formatted (line feeds and all) in the input recordset. Is there a way to do this without parsing each block into separate lines, counting the lines and then tabbing across the doc? I'm not looking for a total solution - just an idea of what's possible and maybe a few keywords to start searching on. -- PeteCresswell Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56815

    - Bookmarks I am running word from access - using msoffice2000, winxp I have 22 docs with bookmarks in them. I need to fill in the bookmarks from my access app. Everything works as expected on 18 of the 22 files. The other 4 files cause all kinds of problems. I have set the recordset to just access these 4 files, wondering if I was over-taxing the whole system, but even if they are the only 4 files, they cause problems. Here are the problems. If I try to do all 22 files, I get the 18 files correct, then the app stops, everything is in 'not responding' and I have to shut it all down. If I try to do just the 4 rogue files, the routine that sets the bookmarks gets the 4 files in a recordset, opens them, skips over the portion of the routine that sets the bookmarks.text and closes them back up, this time without any 'not responding' system problems. I have checked the docs, and all bookmarks are actually present. Using debug.print, I see the routine set all 18 files but then it fails on the first of these 4 files. The debug.print suggests that the app is working on the files in an ascending alpha sort, and it does the good 18, and then crashes on the first of the 4 bad files, which is located in the middle of the alpha sort. I am dumbfounded at this action, but am wondering if I perhaps have four corrupted files. I thought I would beg some information before just jumping in and recreating these files. Is there something I can do about this short of recreating the files? Thanks for your expertise. I appreciate it a great deal. Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56797

    - Printing to paper trays I have posted this problem to the PAge Layout forum but I first encountered it with VBA. I am having a problem with paper trays, re the following: - in a new document type some text, put in a next page section break and type some text on page 2 (section 2) - In File, Page Setup choose Tray One for first page and Tray Two for the other pages, making sure you've got apply to Whole Document seleceted - if you then print the document, both pages come from tray 1!!. If you look in File Page, Setup again it has first page from tray 1 and other pages from tray 2 for This Section, but if you change it to Whole Document no trays are selected. If seems to print the first page of each section from tray 1 and the rest of the pages from each each section from tray 2. As each section only has 1 page they all print from tray 1. Is this true and how do I get around it? This VBA code seems to do the same thing as manually changing the trays in Word: ActiveDocument.PageSetup.FirstPageTray =somecode working out tray ActiveDocument.PageSetup.OtherPagesTray = somecode working out tray Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56794

    - Help debugging code Using Word 2002 and 2003. Have a routine that loops through an array, builds up a string and then puts the string in the document. Occasionally this doesn't work properly and only part of the array appears in the document. The problem is that I can't just see any reason why this would be happening. I have dumped the array to a textfile to have a look at it, but it all looks normal or in any case no different from other arrays that appear in the document fine. The array is an 0-based 2D array with 4 or 5 columns and up to about 100 rows. It contains dates, numbers and strings.

    - How to find the new document created by a mail-merge? Hi, I am splitting my document into several new documents (by section) and then performing a mail merge with each section (usually with different data sets). How do I find the document object that was created as a result of the mail merge? I can't find it in the original documents merge object anywhere. I can't assume it is the last document in the application documents collection, as the user may be doing other things with another word document while the merge is proceeding. Any hints about this?

    - How to create the range between two field codes? Consider the following field codes: «SECTION_START» .... Some text .... Maybe an image .... «SECTION_END» How is it possible for me to create a range starting from the end of the section_start mergefield and end at the section_end merge field start? At present, I'm writing the following: Dim theRange As Word.Range theRange.Start = theFirstField.Result.End + 1 theRange.End = theSecondField.Result.Start - 1 However, it always seems that the range contains the second field code. All I want is the stuff inbetween, NOT including the field codes. Thanks for any tips you can give me on this, Robin Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56783

    - How do I remove a section break from a document? Hi, I'm trying to split my document up into new documents, one for each section in the original master document. To do this, I am more or less executing the following code: ' Create a new document. Dim theNewDocument As Word.Document = m_WordApplication.Documents.Add(Visible:=True) ' Add the new document to the list of documents we should keep track of. m_Sections.Add(theNewDocument) ' Get the current section. theSection = m_LoadedDocument.Sections.Item(Index + 1) ' Now copy the section into the new document. theRange = theSection.Range.FormattedText ' Copy across. theNewDocument.Range.FormattedText = theRange This is all well and good. Consider a master document with 2 sections. In this case, the second (last) section is cut and copied correctly into the new document, however, the first section when copied into the new document still contains the section break at the end of it. So I am having to write: ' Got more than one section? If theNewDocument.Sections.Count > 1 Then ' Somehow remove all section breaks from the document End If Any ideas on how to remove this section break?

    - macro/form to prompt user for input (in WORD) Simple request: Want to create macro/form to prompt user to imput a "word". This word will then be placed on a formated page that allows fifteen different words/phrases arranged in three columns, five rows. These can be printed out to create flash cards for language study. By having an input box, it eliminates all of the tabbing & entering to put these words in the correct place on the page. KNOW it's possible & simple. Can't remember enough about creating a macro to do it and the macro directions in Word just don't apply at all. Thanks! Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56763

    - Remembering Values Hi I have created a user form for memos and faxes. I would like to be able to remember the last 4 recipient details entered. Initially I thought of creating 4 documents, each with a name and job title bookmark, when i click button number 1 on my user form it would look in document1 read the bookmark values and pop them into the text boxes in the user form. If the user overtypes the text in the text boxes it rewrites the text in the bookmarks in the relevant document. I can't seem to find any mention of how to read bookmark values - do I need to use something else?? would autotext or a table or even excel be any easier for storing data. I would really appreciate some advice. Thank you very much for your time. Kerry. Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56762

    - MS Word objects list Word allows us to access to it's objects like tables (ole_object.application.activedocument.tables), paragraphs, sentences and other. But is there an object that keeps all the Word objects ((or) references to them) as they appear in the document. For example: Having the collection of tables (ole_object.application.activedocument.tables) I don't know where exactly that tables are in the document. If the Range or Selection object selects the whole table, how to get to know that it is the table? What is more interesting: How to get to know (when the cursor is in the beginning of the document) what kind of object will be the next: table, sentence or sth else? How can I read my document from top to toe? Thanks in advance... Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56737

On one of the machines, someone has been trying to make the app work against Word2003, but it doesn´t work. I haven´t had access to the error yet, so I don´t know exactly what the message says, but muy questions are... 1. Are there significant differences between WordXP and Word2003? 2. Is the oject model different substantially, or the functions called differently? 3. Is there a web site where this (possible) differences are documented?

    - Closing MSWord Read-Only file I have created a merge template ("Document.dot") that contains a macro to perform the merge and other subsequent actions. The last macro step is to close the original merge document without changes: ' Close the original merge form Documents("Document.dot").Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges This works fine. Now I want to make the template Read-Only to protect it from inadvertent user changes. When I do that, I get an error message saying the document doesn't exist. I've tried including "(Read-Only)" in the document name, which is how the document name appears in Word, but that doesn't work. Is there a way to do this using the simple code above? If not, what do I need to do? Tag: Failure to delete a toolbar Tag: 56735

A bit over 3 years ago, I posted a problem that I, and several others, have
reported in these newsgroups.
See http://www.standards.com/OhMyWord/VBABugsFeatures.html#DeleteToolbar.

I first noticed the problem in Word 2000, then Word 2002. Today, I confirmed
that the problem also exists in Word 2003.

When such a problem persists for so many Word versions, it means that MSFT
is really screwing up by not fixing the problem, or there was a fundamental
(mis)design error in Word 2000 and beyond.

I do not recall whether the problem exists in Word 97, nor do I really care.

Anybody know of a work around?

Howard,

I'm not inclined to open the file at the link you posted. If you would like
briefly to describe the problem, then it may be relatively simple to devise
a workaround.
