    - Copy/Paste: Append to Word Doc I found the macro below on this DG a while back. Sub Foo() Dim i As Long Application.ScreenUpdating = False Documents.Add With Application.FileSearch 'Search in foldername .LookIn = "C:\test" .SearchSubFolders = False .FileName = "*.doc" .Execute For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count If InStr(.FoundFiles(i), "~") = 0 Then Selection.InsertFile FileName:=(.FoundFiles(i)), _ ConfirmConversions:=False, Link:=False, Attachment:=False Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak End If Next i End With End Sub Basically, it copies and pastes everything in folder (or subfolder if the condition is set to true). I am wondering if there is an easy way to modify the macro to search all subfolders and copy/paste only certain sections into a word document, like some kind of summary report. I am looking through hundreds of word documents, and searching for criteria such as percentage "%" and 2 or 3 numbers before that, as well as certain key words such as "Jurisdiction" and "Domicile". Can this be done? Regards, Ryan-- -- RyGuy Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112436

    - capture this error "method envelopevisible failed" Hi all I have a simple macro to automatically send email in MS Word using the email header For some unknown reason random users in our national office are missing the Email button in Word. So I am trying to capture this error using an error handler. However, the errorhandler is provoked even when ActiveWindow.EnvelopeVisible = True is successful.. Is there another way to capture this error? My code below. Sub autonew() On Error GoTo Errorhandler ActiveWindow.EnvelopeVisible = True frmDataArc.Show Errorhandler: MsgBox "Could not load the Email banner, close all applications Repair Office" Exit Sub Many thanks.

    - Need to place text in fields in a Word 2003 template An example field code is { SET CUST_NAME \* MERGEFORMAT }. I am using C# but a VBA example would likely get me going.

    - section add - insert file I have tried this code and it works well if I select one checkbox. If I select more than 1, it is not working correctly. My template is a letterhead (top and bottom) as are my documents. When I check box one, it adds temp2.doc correctly. When I check box 2, it adds a blank letterhead after my template page, then adds temp3.doc as a continuation of temp2.doc rather than starting a new page. I have in chk2 named myDoc1 and docrange1 but, that did not help Here is the code for each check box: Sub chk1() ' ' chk1 Macro ' Macro created 4/10/2008 by bjsorens ' If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check1").CheckBox.Value = True Then Dim myDoc As Document Dim docrange As Range Set myDoc = ActiveDocument With myDoc .Unprotect Set docrange = Selection.Bookmarks("\Page").Range docrange.Collapse wdCollapseEnd docrange.InsertBreak wdSectionBreakNextPage Set docrange = .Range docrange.Collapse wdCollapseEnd docrange.InsertFile "u:\temp2.doc" .Protect wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset End With End If End Sub Sub chk2() ' ' chk1 Macro ' Macro created 4/10/2008 by bjsorens ' If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Check2").CheckBox.Value = True Then Dim myDoc As Document Dim docrange As Range Set myDoc = ActiveDocument With myDoc .Unprotect Set docrange = Selection.Bookmarks("\Page").Range docrange.Collapse wdCollapseEnd docrange.InsertBreak wdSectionBreakNextPage Set docrange = .Range docrange.Collapse wdCollapseEnd docrange.InsertFile "u:\temp3.doc" .Protect wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset End With End If End Sub Would appreciate any help so that by checking more than 1 box, the next file (document) added would append after the last.

    - Localize my VBA? Does anyone have any tips or links to information about localizing my VBA code? So far it's been running in North America and Australia, where some form of English can be selected from the Regional Options, and where an English keyboard is in use. Now I'm going into Spain, and aside from a different keyboard layout, some macros seem to stumble. Here's the most common error message: The Find What text contains a Pattern Match expression which is not valid. I'm also wondering how I should handle the different delimiters used in numbers (decimals vs. commas). Date formats aren't a big problem yet. Can I detect the language settings in VBA?

    - Word as HTML editor I have set up a document management app and plan to use Word as an HTML editor for my users. A user can click on a button to open the displayed .htm file in Word and make minor edits if needed. I also include delimited field names in the html document to allow a merging of data. My problem is that, if they have automatic spell or grammar checking on, or automatically suggest new spelling on, Word places characters around each misspelled word. When the file is printed from my app, a merge process runs replacing field names with that field value. But my merge process is confused by these characters. Mostly, this confusion is caused by the characters separating a line, or separating a field name across lines, making it impossible to recognize the field name in order to replace it. I have tried locating and removing the spell check characters before running the merge, but this has not worked effectively. To restate the problem, a user may open a .htm, make some changes, and save it. Of course, the field names generate a spell or grammar check, which end up also saved with the .htm. Then when they print the .htm, the merge process cannot locate the merge fields because of these control characters automatically entered by Word spell/grammar check. Does anyone have any ideas on what I might do to overcome this problem. Many, many thanks for any and all ideas on this, Mark Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112403

    - ASCII Dos Text I have a file that is generated from our accounting program and is saved as an ASCII Dos Text file. I need to use vba coding that tells Word to open it as an ASCII Dos Text file. There are two different special characters in the txt file which separates the fields and ends the records. When Word opens the txt file, those characters import as just squares with no way to distinguish between the end fields and the end records.

    - search only the words within a selection Hi, Does anybody know how to search for a certain word in a specific selection/highlighted text/paragraph of a document only? I have tried recording a macro but I was not able to get what I want. The following code will highlight the paragraph/portion where the enclosing bookmark is located. In that highlighted/selected area, the macro will search for the word "hello". I only want the macro to find those which are only within the selection. I know this is possible when using the Search & Replace Dialog box but I can't make it run on macro. Below is my sample code.I can't figure out what's missing. I am using Word 2003. Thanks. Sub LinkTest() Dim a As String Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:="tmp" With Selection.Find .text = "hello" End With Do a = Selection.Find.Execute If a = True Then MsgBox (Selection.text) End If Loop While a = True End Sub Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please...

    - retrieve data back to userform Hi, I have a problem with bookmarks. I have a userform called "New application form" made up for a template .dot. In the word, i have insert bookmarks that correspond to the text fields in the userform. So, when user finishes filling out the fields and hit "OK" button, all the data are put into bookmarks. However, what i'm trying to do now is to be able to retrieve all those data back from bookmarks to the form. I know the code to retrieve values from bookmarks to textfields in the userform. The reason for this is to allow user to edit some of the data through the form. (don't know if by doing this, i have made my life more difficult). Anyway, i created another userform called "Editing application form" and a Edit button (use macro). So when user clicks on this button, it brings up the "Editing application form" with all the data in their appropriate text fields. The problem here is When user hits "Edit now" button, i got error message saying "The requested member of the collection doesn't exist". When i checked the bookmarks, those bookmarks are not there. I believe this is because they are not entered in the first place during the creation of the new application form. (something new i learn again today) so is there any other ways that i could use apart from bookmarks and still helps resolve my issue?

    - page counting macro works one day, but not the next In a previous post, I asked about methods for linking separate files into a single document with a single TOC. I was directed away from using Master documents, and towards using the {RD \f} feature. This appears to work just fine. I insert the bracket(s), type in the file name(s), generate the TOC. Of course each file starts page numbering at 1. From this point, it was a short jump to using a macro created to count the number of pages in a document and key off of that. I did not devlope this macro but am using the one provided in the article http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=148 Here's my problem. It works great, at first. I open and close the main document, happily add more documents, generate a new TOC, update the page numbers, save, close, open, etc. Then I go home for the day. The next day, when I try to run the macro (yes, I enabled macros upon opening the document), having made no changes in any of the documents, the macro won't run. It hangs up on the first document with the following: Runtime error '5174' file could not be found check spelling, try different file name, etc File names did not change from the previous day. Removing the first file from the {RD} list doesn't solve the problem. The debugger doesn't help at all, showing a stop at this line in the macro: Set oDoc = Documents.Open(FileName:=strCode) If I remove all the RD coding, and start over, it all works again, until the next day, when the whole error cycle begins again. Whats going on and how do I fix it? Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112354

    - Probleam with page numbering Hi again all. I have hit a bit of a wall here and need some help please. I am writing a multi chapter manual. The layout of the document dictates that the first chapter is Chapter 0 and it then continues normally from there. That part is fine. Where I am running into problems is inserting the chapter number then page number into the header. The TOC must have section then page number (eg: 0-1......3-23 etc). The prog is not letting me change the chapter # for the first chapter (in the header). It will not let me select 0 but starts from 1. Is there any way to sort that out without having to renumber the chapters to start with 1? Thanks in advance. Dominic Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112351

    - Path for utilities We've added commands to our Word menus to let the writers open our (HTML) style guide and the MW dictionary. I path the style guide to a location on our LAN. The dictionary commands are created on installing the MW dictionary, but I control the command and toolbar button locations in our menus and toolbars. Now I'm sending my global add-ins to remote offices. The remote writers don't have access to our servers (or LAN) and they may have a different dictionary installed. I'm thinking it would be better to code my VBA to use a Word path, like those available on Tools > Options > File Locations. Maybe Options.DefaultFilePath(wdToolsPath). The users could arrange to put a copy of the style guide in that path, and a shortcut or copy of the dictionary EXE in that path. What do you think? Is this a reasonable strategy? Is there a better path to use? Bear -- Windows XP, Word 2000 Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112343

    - Vertical Scroll bar not operable in a Word form Hi, I have a simple User Form in Word that is sent to multiple users to collect information. Due to the display resolution settings, some of the users are able to see the form in its entirety they are unable to see the bottom portion of the form. I went to the form's property after opening the form in VBA mode and set the "Scrollbars" property to "2 - frmscrollbarsvertical." This shows the vertical scroll on the right side of the screen, but I am unable to use it and move up and down on the form (there is no scroll drag in that scroll screen).

    - issue with filedialog browser Hi, I have a question. I've a userform that has a textfield. Next to it, there is a button with caption "Browse". I was thinking that when user wants to insert a picture, he/she clicks on "browse" that will bring up a filedialog box for user to select which image file they want to insert to the document. Once, they have chosen the file, the filepath will be captured and shown in the textfield that is next to it. After user has filled out all the text fields in the userform and press "ok" button, all the user data will be dumped to the word document. I use bookmark to do this. So, getting back to my question. i have a bookmark in the word document. I was hoping, the image will be placed where the bookmark for the image is in the word document. I use the following code to bring up the filedialog but couldn't retrieve the filepath to the textfield. Instead, it actually opens up the file. Dialogs(wdDialogFileOpen).Show I have tried to use the following codes Dim dlgOpen As FileDialog Set dlgOpen = Application.FileDialog( _ FileDialogType:=msoFileDialogOpen) but got error message saying "invalid property". I have done this before in excel but the codes below doesn't work well with word. filein = Application.GetOpenFilename() Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    - issue with opening a file Hi, I have a question i need to ask of you MVP experts. Say, i have a several customised templates dot files e.g. our company Letter template, Fax template, and so on. Each of these templates have a userform (macro - autonew) that would be called up as soon as a user opens up the template My question is if i have a customised toolbar that has buttons for each of these templates in the normal.dot. So when user opens up a word document, he/she will find the toolbar. On the dropdown list, there are "Company Letter", "Company Fax", "Company Report". When they click on Company Letter, it brings up the Letter doc with the userform pops up waiting for user inputs. That's the idea. Today, i tried to do that but it actually opens up the template Letter.dot. Hence, there is no userform showing up. This is not what i anticipated. Here is my code for testing purpose only Sub Macro1() Documents.Open FileName:="C:\Documents and Settings\myComp\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\Company Letter.dot", ReadOnly:=True End Sub I might have used the wrong code here for opening a file. Your ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112310

    - Excel (VBA) 2007 workbook in 2003 - available resources?? I have created from scratch a new main workbook and several 'satellite' dynamically populated/'built' report templates - in 2007 (as, 2003 to 2007 seemed to fraught with danger). All runs well, I have saved versions of the 2007 workbooks as 97-2003 workbooks with a couple of compatability 'fixes' around colour formats and shape formats. In 2003, I can run these (both the master workbook and the report templates )independantly and all works fine. But - if I call the report via the parameter selection main workbook reporting FORM - the report is found, opened, parameters populated, list boxes filled and report dynamically structured - all well. THe code then seeks to return to the main workbook to wrap up there - - and, alas, XL either falls over OR I get the following message (ad-infinitum): "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications." Note - if the report is already open - and NOT opened via the procedure - then, all is fine again - however, that's not really sustainable - to open all report templates first...but - even though there ARE not links, is there some silly order of opening issue here? ----any ideas?? There ARE pictures and shapes and activeX combo boxes on the report template. The main workbook has pictures, shapes (acting as buttons), forms galore. I've already found that using a 'shape' in 2007 to close a workbook is dangerous and use activeX controls for that. I'm just a tad nervous about this whole 2003/2007 thing.

I have (Word 2003) templates that produce forms-protected documents, but the documents themselves don't contain any formfields. I use forms protection only because it allows me to protect only certain sections of the document, such as the header and footer, while leaving other sections, such as the main body of the document unprotected. The spellchecker checks the spelling in the unprotected sections OK, and I don't really mind if it doesn't check the spelling in the protected sections because 1) I know that I haven't made any spelling errors in the 'boilerplate' in these sections; and 2) if the user has made a spelling error in the 'variable' information, they can just rerun the code in template to correct the errors. However, there is a deficiency in the native spellchecker that I've been asked to develop a workaround for. In an unprotected document, if none of the choices in the 'Suggestions' list are viable, you can just type in the 'Not in Dictionary' box to make the change. However, this doesn't work in a protected document; the text in the 'Not in Dictionary' box is treated like it's in a protected section. I could always write code that unprotects the document before displaying the spellchecker, but there are a couple of drawbacks: First, this will allow the users to spellcheck the protected sections as well, which is not really a major problem except that if the user corrects an error that was introduced through the input of the 'variable' information described above, this correction won't get replicated back into the data from the UserForm. Thus if the user reruns the template, the correction won't be there and the error could be reintroduced without the user realising it. However, I can live with this. The real problem is that the spellchecker dialog isn't modal to Word. Therefore, if I unprotect the document, the user now has full access to the whole document, _including_ the protected sections. And believe me, the users will take advantage of this whenever possible; I learned this when I told the users I was going to fix a bug in my code that left the document unprotected and got a... umm... less than favourable response. ;-D Does anyone know a way to enable the editing capability in the 'Not in Dictionary' box without unprotecting the document? Or will my users just have to live with this limitation? (The second choice is acceptable as I'm quite happy to tell the users 'No' - as long as I can justify the response.) -- Cheers!

    - Sharing Arrays Between Modules In an earlier post, Jean-Guy Marcil provided me with some excellent instruction on structuring projects to separate UserForm-related processes from document-related processes. (Thanks again, Jean-Guy!) I'm now trying to apply this structure to a somewhat more complex project and have run into a problem straight away. In this new project, I use arrays to collect sets of similar information (e.g. the names and addresses of multiple parties to a contract). These arrays all reside in the UserForm class module, since they are obviously integral to the processes related to the UserForm; i.e. UserForm operations are used to create and maintain the arrays, and the arrays are used to display information in the UserForm. However, I cannot find a way to take the information in these arrays and transfer it back into the 'operational' class module that is used to perform the actual document-creation processes. UserForm controls (and the values contained therein) are simple enough to access and variables can be declared as Public and then just become a 'pseudo-attribute' of the UserForm object, but arrays cannot be Public. For obvious reasons, I don't want to dynamically create a heap of Public variables to dump the contents of the arrays into and then rebuild the arrays on the 'operational' side, and doing something like grabbing the contents of the ListBoxes that are used to display and maintain the arrays on the UserForm and then attempting to parse this information scares the daylights out of me. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to share contents of an array between two modules? -- Cheers!

    - Fetching data in Excel from Word Hello, I have a Word document. I have in an Excel file with thousands of IP adresses and other similar type of information. In the word document, I have to create a chapter for each physical servers (a lot). In each chapter, a table display the IP configuration of the sever as well as virtualized servers inside it (a lot more) These information are randomy defined in the Excel file. What is the best way to do that ? I'd like to have a button in the word document which call a macro. This macro would open the Excel document and lookup the IP information based on the server name. Then, it would update tags or fields or variables that I would insert here and there in the word document. The goal here is to avoid regrouping & copying by hand thousands of IP adresses, which is prone to mistakes. Moreover, whenever the IP adresses are updated in the Excel file, I would run the macro to update the word document. Any good idea ? I know how to do a macro in Excel, but never did one in word. My main problem is how to create a "field" or a "variable" in the text (generally in -but not restricted to- a table) that my macro would recognise in the word document and update it ? Thanks in advance. JD Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112266

    - project locked Hi, Sorry if this has been asked recently or frequently. Somehow all my projects are looked. If I download a dot-file, add it and then try to open the macros in the editor, they are all locked. Even if I myself create a dot-file, add a project, type some dummy macrotext, close and then add that dot-file to another document, also that project is locked. I can´t even open the properties. The security settings are on the lowest level. Word 2003 What do I do wrong? TIA Örjan Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112265

    - Word 2003 custom Menus change and disappear Does anyone have a fool proof method for stabilizing custom menus (on the menu bar) in Word? I have a menu in a global template that should always show, as well as document templates that each contain a menu I want to appear only when someone is in a document created from that template. The problem SEEMS to stem from OTHER people's software -- the menus will be there but then they disappear, or multiple copies appear or the menu is suddenly empty or has the name for one menu with choices for another menu on it. Note: Custom TOOLBARS seem stable, it is just the MENU that is problematic. I have been fighting this for years and have done a lot of research but so far everything I try has a hiccup at some point. The programming is all VBA in Word .dot templates. So far I have tried: - Using tools, customize to create the menus w/in the appropriate templates -- works great on my computer, but menus disappear/duplicate constantly on about 80% of my clients. - Programmatically creating the menus -- this is good for the global template menu -- at first -- but somewhere through the day it gets trashed. I can't get the template specific menus to behave. They constantly disappear. - Write an event handler to delete and then recreate all menus and display as (Tried with the "Document change" or "WIndow Activate" event for the Word application) -- this seemed to work at first but suddenly the problems returned. I did not want to just "show" the menus per the event handler because they would suddenly have the wrong buttons or be empty part way through the day. (Maybe I am not writing it right.) Has anyone else had this struggle? It happens to me so much I am surprised I can't find more postings about it. PLEASE HELP!!!!! Thanks so much.

    - Comparing Word documents I inherited some Word VBA code to format a report based on rtf output from DOORS. I made some changes to the VBA to improve performance (it used to run for more than hour) and now I would like to compare the Word document produced from the latest version with a Word document produced from the previous version of the Word VBA macros. I am running Microsoft Office Word 2003. I opened the more recent copy, and then: 1. pulled down Tools-->Compare and Merge documents... 2. checked the "Legal Blackline" checkbox 3. selected the baseline word document produced under the old macro set 4. clicked on "Compare" The only differences that showed up was that every row of the main table is black-barred with (on each page) a change box pointing at the header saying "Formatted Table". When I move my mouse over the "Formatted Table" change box it says "Author formatted Table:" Any clue what this is trying to tell me? The contents look fine otherwise. --Thank you, --Mike Jr. Tag: Hiding the Print Button While Printing Again Please... Tag: 112251

Here is the instruction I have for the one button on the document. This
button will open a Form and then take you to a module to gather data and
place it in the named bookmarks in Word.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

DemogInfoForm_Initialize

End Sub

Anyway,

The problem I'm having is how (or where should I place the code) to hide the
button when it is printed? I have the code instructions below taken from
your previous questions.....

With ActiveDocument

.Shapes(1).Visible = msoFalse
.PrintOut Background:=False
.Shapes(1).Visible = msoTrue

End With

Thank you for your help!

Hi Tom

Changing this

.PrintOut Background:=False

to this

.PrintOut Background:=True

will prevent the button from showing, but this has certain disadvantages if
you want the macro to continue doing something else after printing or you
want to print several documents in sequence.

If you don't want to print in the background, then there is nothing in the
Word VBA object model to allow you to suppress the printing progress dialog.
It may be possible by means of clever manipulation of the Windows API, but I
really wouldn't recommend going that route. If I recall from experimenting
with that, you end up needing to use timer objects, and start off some code
before you start printing that regularly checks all the windows, and hides
or minimizes the print window if found. Its a fairly substantial piece of
code to get it all working. I can't recall if I ever did get it working to
my satisfaction.
