    - select information to print in template I am trying to determine if this is possible in Word 2000 and if so, figure out which tool would best support this type of automation. Basically I am trying to create a word template that can be used as a form letter where the user would select particular verbiage depending on the terms of the transaction. The letter starts and ends in basic paragraph format but the body is separated into sections. For example: Dear Joe Schmoe, We are pleased to offer you the following. Line: $<<Insert field>> Term: << field>> months End of Term Options: ??This is where I am lost?? Additional Conditions: ???Another spot like above??? There are many variable End of Term Options/Additional Conditions etc. The users would like to select just one option (which can be almost a paragraph long in some cases) and insert it into this proper space for printing as if it had been typed. I have been looking at using Forms drop-downs, Pop-up lists and Active X controls but seem to be going in circles. I am quite new at VB and generally depend on recording a macro and tweeking it for specific usage. Any direction would be GREATLY appreciated. Sorry so long winded. Thank you for your time!

    - Problems with Command Button with VBA code Hello, I created a form in Word. It is saved as a read-only template and it's protected so that users can only change the form fields. There is a command button called "E-Mail Document" that users can click and the document is e-mailed to a specific address. The form is meant to be used over and over again. I've tested the form repeatedly and the control button always works. However, my users are reporting that it is not working. When I go into the forms they are sending back, the VBA code is gone. How is this happening?? My code is below. Thank you! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Private Sub EMailDocument_Click() Dim bStarted As Boolean Dim oOutlookApp As Outlook.Application Dim oItem As Outlook.MailItem On Error Resume Next If Len(ActiveDocument.Path) = 0 Then MsgBox "Document needs to be saved first" Exit Sub End If Set oOutlookApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application") If Err <> 0 Then Set oOutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") bStarted = True End If Set oItem = oOutlookApp.CreateItem(olMailItem) With oItem .To = "REDACTED" .Subject = "Site Visit Document" 'Add the document as an attachment, you can use the .displayname property 'to set the description that's used in the message .Attachments.Add Source:=ActiveDocument.FullName, Type:=olByValue, _ DisplayName:="Document as attachment" .Send End With If bStarted Then oOutlookApp.Quit End If Set oItem = Nothing Set oOutlookApp = Nothing End Sub Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103378

    - Fill combo boxes from Access tables I have a Word template (dot) with a UserForm that opens and has several combo boxes for the user to make selections. It then uses these selections to build a letter. I've also created an Access database with tables and fields to populate the various combo boxes on the UserForm in Word. I've managed to figure out how to do this with 1 combo box (cboHOName) on the form and 1 table/field from Access but now want to populate the other combo boxes as well from the other tables inside the same Access database. For example in tblOffices I have an Address1 and Address2 field with corresponding combo boxes (cboAddress1 & cboAddress2) on the Word UserForm and tblTitles with the EETitle field and combo box cboEETitle. I'm just not sure how to modify my code to incorporate these as well. Here's what I have, please help! Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Dim dbDatabase As Database Dim rsTemplates As Recordset Dim i As Integer Dim aResults() 'Activates the Database connection. Set dbDatabase = OpenDatabase("K:\AcsData\ROTemplatesDB.mdb") 'Opens the Offices table. Set rsROTemplates = dbDatabase.OpenRecordset("tblOffices", dbOpenSnapshot) i = 0 With rsROTemplates 'Populate the combobox with the values in the cboHOName field. Do Until .EOF cboHOName.AddItem (i) cboHOName.Column(0, i) = .Fields("HOName") .MoveNext i = i + 1 Loop End With End Sub Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103377

    - Encoding I am trying to learn about encoding, and have read a lot about it. However, what I can't find much on is some very practical issues that would explain a lot (at least to me). I figured that the programmers' forum would be the place to ask this simple question. It may seem naive, but I do not think it is. I have Word 2000 (Office 2000). When I open a new document, what is it that determines the encoding of that document? And, a follow-up. I can open rtf files with a text editor and see the encoding (or code page, a term I understand some people do not like). But how do I see the same for a .doc file? Believe me, this means a lot to me. Thanks for your serious answer. Hans L Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103375

    - Medical Form I am creating a form in Word and would like to have two fields First one Provider Type Second one Specialty.... The only problem is that I would like the Second one to filter down to options that are available by the choice selected in the first one. Basically if you choose Physician in the first drop down menu I would like it to only supply the Specialties for the Physicians... meaning it would take out Hospital or Ambulatory and leave Pediatrics or Internal Med. Any suggestions?? Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103373

    - How do you disable updating of links through VBA Hi, I am working on an app which (among other things) is resonsible for making a PDF of Word docs. That PDF part is fine. The problem is, the Word docs often contains OLE links for which the source is not available. When my print routine opens these docs, the links are converted to "Error! Not a valid link." in the same way that happens when I choose 'Update Links' when opening a Word doc that contains missing links, through Word. My printing routine is very simple. I just call Open(), PutActivePrinter() amd PrintOut(). My question is: is there any way to open a word doc in VBA and force Word to explicitly not update links? Thx in advance.

    - Stepping thru protected table cells I have a table which contains rows with different formats (some with merged cells, some with split cells). It contains cells with form fields and cells with plain text. It is protected. There are some rows which, in cell 3, have a checkbox. If the checkbox value in cell 3 = true, I want to copy cells 2, 4 and 5 of this row to a new table at the end of the document or into a new table in a new separate document. Cells 2 and 4 are plain text in; cell 5 is a form field. I don't know how to do a copy statement for a range with some plain text cells and a form field cell. Also, this is pretty repetitive, so I was looking for something that would just step through the table without having to specifically refer to formfield Bookmark name, e.g. using a counter index to do the following: i = count(rows in table) use i to loop through the rows: row(i) : if cell 3 contains a checkbox with value = Yes, copy contents of cells 2, 4 and 5 to next line in new table* (*create the table when you run into the first instance of cell 3 checkbox=true) Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103363

    - Word 2007 Macros Disabled I created a number of macros in a word macro enabled template as well as auto footers. Without seemingly doing anything, my macros no longer work even though I went into the Trust Center and anutomatically enabled all macros. The macros, when run, insert the appropriate merge or insert codes, but not the actual footers or bookmarks. There doesn't seem to be anyway around this that I have discovered so far. Before I reload Office Suite 2003, does anyone know of anything else that might work to run the macros? Always appreciate the awesome feedback of these discussion groups.

    - Drop Down getting values from Excel Ok, so I always get these questions from my co-workers on Friday afternoon... We want to establish a spreadsheet (let's call it schools.xls) that has school names (and maybe 3 or 4 other fields). The users would populate the spreadsheet, then go to a Word doc that has a drop down box that feeds off of the values in the spreadsheet. We know that standard drop down boxes only allow 25 entries, so I've made a VB form that has a drop down box. I need to know how I can get code that links to the spreadsheet, grabs the values in column A and enters those as selections for the drop down box. Any ideas?

    - Have question Can anyone help me find out what is wrong with my Word 2000? This just started last week. The only thing I can think of that I changed is that my virus protection ran out and I got rid of it since it wouldn't work any more and downloaded a new one.

If I try to open any of the old documents that never left off the computer, I get this "c:\Documents and settings\ (my name)\Desktop\w2k5p4_EN.EXE.part" and the program will not open the documents. I thought I would try to open a new one and start from scratch, but I cannot open Word. I have tried everything else in Office 2000 and they everyone seem to work fine, but Word will not even open. Thank you. Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103262

    - Table Question I found out that if you protect a section of a document Shapes and Drawings do not work unless you unprotect the document first. The only reason I was looking at protecting section(s) was to force users to use a form that when saved would populate the tables in the document correctly. Without protecting the section(s), is there a way that if a user clicks in a table to update it will take them to my form instead to be used to edit or update the tables?

    - VBA Macro Issues after 2000 to 2003 upgrade A few years ago I wrote templates for Microsoft Word and Excel containing vba code. The macros are used to search through designated word files, suck out particular bits of information, export that info to excel, and create cross-reference tables in Excel with that info. We use these templates a lot in my group. A few weeks ago I got a new laptop with Windows XP (instead of 2000) and Office 2003 (instead of 2000). I just tried using these macros for the first time since the upgrade, and I'm running into a lot of problems: 1) The Word macro that exports data to Excel runs EXTREMELY slowly -- it takes 5 minutes where it used to take 30 seconds. And that's if I save the file locally; over the network, I give up before I see anything happening. 2) Some of the indentation formatting is not correct after the Word macro is run. 3) Workbooks made from the Excel template have code to create a menu with buttons to run the macros. These menus never appear. 4) If I run the macros in Excel, I get an error at the following line, probably because the menu isn't there: If CommandBars(sortReqToolBarName).Visible = True Then Any advice is appreciated. I'm not even sure if this is the correct forum, so advice on where to go for help is also appreciated. I also posted in the Excel programming forum.

    - Split a Document using VBA I have a very large word document (2721 pages) which contains a datafile too large to open in Excel. My aim is to split this data into manageable chunks for excel to open. The data source is currently 163,250 lines but will grow daily (unsure by how much) so I need to put the variable for the loop to be based on the size of the document. I have tried to use: varNumberPages = ActiveDocument.Content.Information(wdActiveEndAdjustedPageNumber) but the document cannot repaginate in time to give the correct result. my main issue is that i cannot say cut the first 1000 pages into a new document and repeat this another 2 times to get three documents (2 = 1000 pages & 1 = 721) although i am unsure this large a document will open in excel!

    - Document containing many ActiveX controls prints out blank Hi all, I have a 9 page Word document that contains a large number of ActiveX controls from the form toolbar, i.e. textboxes, radio buttons and a couple of command buttons. I've used this because my customer's clients need to be guided through filling in a whole pile of data and I have used VBA to hide and unhide the controls depending on how the client starts filling in the document. It all works nicely in versions 97 through to 2007 so I was quite chuffed. However, when they (using Word 2003) or I (using Word 2002 or 2007) try to print it out, we get 9 nearly blank pages. The only things that get printed out are the lines around a table. The document is normally protected to allow data input only via the form, but even when I unprotect it the printing still doesn't work. I've Googled every combination of words that I can think of that might be relevant, but can't find anything that explains what the reason for the problem is let alone a solution. Can anyone help, please? Many thanks, Alan Cossey PS Getting the clients to use Infopath for data input is a non-starter.

    - Word/normal.dot/Toolbars problem?? I have created a toolbar called CustomMacros and have placed a drop-down menu in it with various macros. A few macros that I don't use any more I have deleted out of the normal.dot and have dragged their labels off the menu bar, however, once I close out of Word the label still appears in the menu. I've also added another menu to the toolbar and split up the list of macros categorically since the list in the one menu was getting too large, yet when I close out of Word the changes I've made have been ignored and my original long-listed menu remains intact. So, the problem is any changes I make to the toolbar will not stick. Anyone know what's up with this? Thanks for your help. jerem Tag: Good News Mr 142.179.22.210 flood microsoft.public.word.vba.general Tag: 103169

    - Custom Macros, Toolbars and Buttons I have inherited a set of custom macros for creating and inserting images into a document. A custom toolbar and set of buttons are associated with this macro set. I am revising and enhancing the macro set, which includes adding new buttons to the toolbar and modifying existing buttons. I've tried everything I can think of and I can't do the following: a. change an existing toolbar button's macro asignment from an obsolete, deleted macro to its new and improved replacement (the new macro has a different name) b. add a new button to the toolbar and assign it to one of the new macros. As usual, I expect this is simple stuff and I'm just too blind to see it.

    - IF Statement / Macro --- I tried! I need to create an IF statement and need some help! I am building a table and I need to look at the "status" column in order to insert the appropriate value in the following column. Here is what I want my IF statement to do (in English)!: IF cell E2 = "Not Started", place a "1" in this cell IF cell E2 = "Active", place a "2" in this cell IF cell E2 = "Transferred", place a "3" in this cell IF cell E2 = "Completed", place a "4" in this cell otherwise, keep <blank> Now, I need this same thing to occur with all the cells that are populated in column E - so, I would need the same "IF" statement to apply to "E3, E4, etc". IS there a way I can copy the actual formula and it will automatically change to reflect the appropriate column number? Any help would be appreciated!
