    - Give textbox focus when form loads modeless Hello all, Using Word 2003. I have a VBA userform which contains a textbox (txtFindText) and some buttons. When the form is displayed I would like the textbox to have the focus. I have a line - txtFindText.SetFocus - in the form's initialisation handler and this seems to work when I invoke the form by "MyForm.Show". However, if I invoke the form by "MyForm.Show vbModeless" the textbox does not seem to get the focus and I seem to need to press the Enter key to give the box the focus. Is there a way to give the textbox the focus when the form is displayed as modeless? Thanks. Ed. Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101966

    - Form behaviour when called from toolbar button Hello all, Using Word 2003. I have a VBA userform which I would like to be semi-transparent. The form contains the following sub (as well as declarations and other stuff): Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Dim hwnd As Long Dim ret As Long Const Transparency As Integer = 128 hwnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, Me.Caption) ret = GetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE) ret = ret Or WS_EX_LAYERED SetWindowLong hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, ret ret = SetLayeredWindowAttributes(hwnd, 0, Transparency, LWA_ALPHA) End Sub The relevant constants are declared in the form module as: Private Const LWA_ALPHA = &H2 Private Const GWL_EXSTYLE = (-20) Private Const WS_EX_LAYERED = &H80000 The form is instantiated by the following macro: Sub EditFind() Dim MyForm As frmFind Set MyForm = New frmFind MyForm.Show Unload MyForm Set MyForm = Nothing End Sub (Originally I tried just using frmFind.Show rather than using the MyForm variable.) When I run the macro in the VBA IDE it works, but when I add a toolbar button in Word to call the macro, the form remains opaque. No errors are reported. Any ideas? Thanks.

    - Macros Hi I am trying to record a macro in word 2003. I go to 'insert, picture, from scanner or camera' then the scanner box comes with options to insert, custom insert or cancel. The whole page is not scanned so I have to go to custom insert when another box opens with scanning options and I click colour picture and then scan. But the macro will not record the bit when I go into custom insert. Is there a way I could include that part in the macro and I'm afraid I don't know how to use Visual Basic.

    - create a new document consisting just of comments does anyone know how I can either print to pdf, or create a new document, of just the comments and their reviewers in Word? I have tried being in 'final showing markup'; show = comments (i.e. insertions & deletions and formatting are turned off), and printing 'list of markup', but still I get all the other stuff. I just want the comments. I also tried generating a TOC using the comments text as the style from which to generate it, but Word couldn't find any entries, even though when you click on the comments text it tells you that is the name of the style. can anyone help? ruthd Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101958

    - find, format tabs and replace in table cells I've got tables with counts and percentages in many of the table cells in the form "35.3% (47/133)". I want the percentages to align so I wrote a macro to define right-aligning tab positions at 40% and 100% of the cells usable width and then insert a tab character between the percentage sign and the opening parenthesis. It works but it's a very brute force method because it defines tabs in each cell of all tables in a document. What I'd like to be able to do is to search for a cell with percentages and counts and only then to define the tab positions. Could someone help me out in this? Here's my macro in its present state. It takes about 25 seconds on a 19 page document. Public Sub TabsForPctAndCount() Dim aRange As Word.Range Dim oTable As Word.Table Dim oCell As Cell Dim UseableWidth As Single Set aRange = ActiveDocument.Range(0, 0) System.Cursor = wdCursorWait ' Displays the hourglass StatusBar = "Defining tab positions in tables ..." 'Insert right aligning tab positions at 40% and 100% of each cell For Each oTable In ActiveDocument.Tables For Each oCell In oTable.Range.Cells UseableWidth = oCell.Width - oCell.LeftPadding - oCell.RightPadding oCell.Range.ParagraphFormat.TabStops.ClearAll oCell.Range.ParagraphFormat.TabStops.add Position:=UseableWidth * 0.4, Alignment:=wdAlignTabRight oCell.Range.ParagraphFormat.TabStops.add Position:=UseableWidth, Alignment:=wdAlignTabRight Next oCell Next oTable StatusBar = "Inserting tabs between percentages and counts ..."

Is it possible for somebody to re-write the code to include ALL THE STORY RANGES of the document, so that the MsgBox shows the TOTAL NUMBER OF REPLACEMENTS OF ALL STORY RANGES?

    - Using vba Find/Replace Bullets Hi All I am using Word 2000, hope someone can assist, I know alot about Excel vba but am To maintain the formatting of a document, I am requiring the users to paste sometimes large amounts of text into a userform that pastes it as unformatted text into the relevant bookmark in the doument. One problem I have is that where a portion of the text was bullet points it becomes =B7(followed by a tab). Using Selection.Find.Text =3D "=B7" & vbTab allows me to find the unformatted bullet point. After pasting of the information I need to: Start from the top of the doc Find the first unformatted bullet Apply bullet formatting Delete the "=B7" & vbTab Find next unformatted bullet and repeat til all are formatted bullet points Using vba I managed to find the unformatted bullet and change to a formatted bullet point but could not get it to move on to the next one etc. I guess I am having trouble applying this into some sort of loop. Hope this makes sense, any help would be appreciated. Regards Andy Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101930

The problem became evident when I was trying to use the â??Dialerâ?? sample code in Visual Basic. ALL the ports came back with a â??Run-time error 8012 device not openâ?? even when the statement before it is: â??MSComm1.PortOpen=Trueâ?? and of course the state before it is â??MScomm1.ComPort = 3â?? the port number to my modem. Similar problems exist on the HyperTerminal. The HyperTerminal wonâ??t work on COM 3 my modem port number, it will work on GTW V.92 Voicemodem the name associated with the modem, and of course non of the other port numbers wonâ??t work either. Iâ??ve tried changing the port number of my modem and in the Visual Basic sample program, but the problems remained the same. Does anyone really know how to fix this problem?

    - Include several nonbreaking spaces in an expression Dear Experts: I came up with the following macro to insert a nonbreaking space between the =A7-symbol followed by any number of blank spaces (usually one or two) and any following number.

    - this key is already associated with an element of this collection A macro I'm creating (see partial code below) reads tab-delimited fields from a text file. The strange thing is that after I shut it down then start it up again for testing, I receive the message "This key is already associated with an element of this collection"--almost as if the process is kept in memory from the previous session. The hangup occurs on the line that reads "arrHeaderNames(intCtr)" at the end. Then, even more strange, when I bump the yellow highlighted step indicator back up about three lines to "Line Input #1," it runs OK. Thanks in advance for any thoughts. 'get some key values from source file and assign them to main variables Open strPathWkFile For Input As #1 Line Input #1, strScrap arrHeaderNames = Split(strScrap, Chr(9)) For intCtr = LBound(arrHeaderNames) To UBound(arrHeaderNames) colHeader.Add Item:=Trim(str(intCtr)), Key:=arrHeaderNames(intCtr) Next intCtr intCtr = 0 Do While Not EOF(1) intCtr = intCtr + 1 Line Input #1, strScrap arrFieldData = Split(strScrap, Chr(9)) strLead_ID = arrFieldData(Val(colHeader.Item("Lead_ID"))) I even tried changing the value of intCtr in the troubled line from 0 to 1 but to no avail. -- Bryan Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101885

    - Word templates on new server are inaccessible when old server is o A group of Word templates was created on SERVER1 some years ago. The original server location is reflected in the file location field code in the footer as \\SERVER1\[template location]. A couple of years ago, the templates were MOVED to \\SERVER2\[template location] where users have been accessing them without a problem using Word 2003. There is no copy of the templates on SERVER1. After decommissioning SERVER1, it was turned off. Afterwards, users reported that Word would hang when they tried to create new documents from the templates. This was remedied by turning SERVER1 back on again. QUESTIONS: How could access to the templates be impeded by turning off SERVER1 when the templates no longer reside there? Is there somehow a hidden pointer to SERVER1 within the template code that redirects back to SERVER2? The following obvious causes have been ruled out: 1. Both file locations for Word templates (user and workgroup) are pointing to SERVER2. 2. Checking the VBA editor within Word, there is no hard-coding in any of the templates (including normal.dot) that points to SERVER1. 3. There are no startup macros or templates in ..\Office11\Startup. Users DO share a network normal.dot. Autotext entries in this template are updated by a single person, the same person who created the templates on SERVER1. A search of the VBA code for normal.dot does not reveal any pointers to SERVER1. The goal is to decommission SERVER1 without impeding access to the templates on SERVER2. Any assistance in this regard would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Clark Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101878

    - Text Form Field - Number Format Problem I am creating a (Word 2003) protected form using Text Form Fields to accept input (and to perform a calculation on previously input Number fields). The Number Format dropdown box in the Text Form Field Options menu where the Type is Number, offers only a limited set of number of available formats. One of these formats, Â£#,##0.00;(Â£#,##0.00), can be edited to Â£#,##0;(Â£#,##0) to allow input of values of whole Pounds (Sterling) only. HOWEVER, I am not happy with the format of the negative values (i.e. in parentheses) and I would REALLY prefer to use "Â£,0;-Â£,0". I am able to use my prefered number format to display the result in the Calculation type of Text Form Field - but I have been unable to see how I can apply this format to a(n input) Number type Text Form Field.

    - Save Document oddity I have used macros similar to the following to insert (in this instance) the path at the foot of a document. However testing this in Word 2007 has thrown up an anomaly in that the check for whether the document is saved is completely ignored inevitably causing an error at the line pPathname= if the document has not already been saved. This always worked in Word 2003, however on testing again in Word 2003 (my PC currently has both Word 2003 and 2007 installed in parallel) it no longer worked there either. Following a reboot, it worked again in 2003, but not in 2007, and then on closing 2007 and reopening 2003 it no longer works there. Reboot and open 2007 without first opening 2003 and it still doesn't work :( Initially I thought that the presence of both versions was the problem, but my laptop only has 2007 and it doesn't work there either. Any ideas? I am trying to like 2007 ..... honest .... but it seems to throw up one problem after another. On an entirely different note my laptop's Word 2007 has an AddIns tab on the Ribbon, that of my desktop doesn't. My desktop has Acrobat 8.1 instead.

    - MI5 Persecution: Stasi 21/4/96 (16220) Subject: Chief Constable Alderson Condemns "Stasi" MI5 Newsgroups:uk.misc,uk.politics,uk.media,uk.legal,soc.culture.british Organization: Toronto Free-Net Summary: Keywords: John Alderson, former Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall, had the following to say about the expansion of the Security Service's powers, in a recent magazine article; "It is fatal to let the secret service into the area of ordinary crime. MI5 is not under the same restraints as the police. They infiltrate organisations, people's jobs and lives. They operate almost like a cancer." "At the moment the acorn of a Stasi [the former East German communists' secret service] has been planted. It is there for future governments to build on." The message is clear. Criminal subversion and criminal harassment by an unpoliced minority not subject to the law, "infiltration of people's jobs and lives" is with us today. 16220 Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101788

This in itself dos not suggest that the police have it in for you. The old bill operates on extremely tight spending limits forced on them by that pillock Michael Howard, and without evidence, they often have higher priorities than chasing something that cannot go to court. I doubt that the police are actually being leant on, but they probably realise that if they looked into this, they would be leant on hard. The met always stays away from anything that looks like it has Defence, Security or secret service interest already, because they realise that they are below these government agencies in the general pecking order. This attitude was made clear in a TV show where a left wing comedian heckled some aristocratic Tory candidate in a local election. The police officer gave the comic a ticking off, even though you could see that this young copper sympathised with the comedian, and regarded the Tory as an upper-crust wanker. He said, and I quote "I'm giving you the ticking off and not him because he's a Lord and I'm a Police Constable." If I walked into my local nick and complained that MI5 were snooping on me, they would show me the door without even looking at my evidence, because that bored desk seargant with only five years to go before he retires doesn't want to start fucking about with somebody who has incurred the wrath of Stella Rimington. He would rather deal with the lost dogs and driving licence producers, eat his cheese and pickle sandwiches and piss off home at the end of his shift than have some high ranking spook having a go at his boss and getting him a bollocking. In short, you have earned much sympathy but little surprise. Just remember that saying about the enemy of your enemies. Have a nice day. ******************************************* QUOTE OF THE DAY****************** * You have just read the opinons of : * "Common sense is merely the set * * * of prejudices a person acquires* ========================================================================= Subject: Re: MI5 Persecution: Why Aren't the British Police Doing Their Job?

I think the police know well what's going on. It is up to them to do something about it. They know I've made a complaint at a police station.

In this case I think it is 'high-ranking' police officers who are aware of the persecution, they know a complaint has been made, and they're doing nothing. What is more, I don't think there is anything I can do that would make them take action, both because they may be being 'leant on' and through the wider view that it could be deleterious to the state to have a persecution by state organs exposed. They're wrong in taking that point of view, because sooner or later this will all out anyway, and they it will be n years of police inaction (n>=6) that will be questioned. > >In short, you have earned much sympathy but little surprise.

Because ... >So why didn't they just shoot you dead? >It would have been a lot cheaper. I think there are two reasons nobody has taken physical action as opposed to verbal; a) A lot of people "know". Perhaps you the reader might not know, but lots of people in the media etc do. Remember, I was born in the UK and lived there until a couple of years ago. I don't think these people would condone state-sponsored murder of someone who might be seen on a good day as one of their own. b) Rather than doind anything directly, they're going for spying, verbal harassment, media harassment, every form of persecution short of the physical. Because as soon as anything turns physical, the police become involved; and unless it turns physical, the police can shrug and say 'not our problem'. So they persecute you and try to get you to react, either by hitting one of them (in which case I clearly find myself in the wrong as far as the police are concerned), or by trying to harm myself (in which case they can pretend they weren't responsible). It's a pretty unproductive form of harassment actually, because if you don't react then they're wasting they're time. Or perhaps they're just cheap bullies and trying to wreck someone's life, without any ulterior motive? 13192 Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101786

If mail is automatically returned to him, he will return it back to you tenfold. If he is thrown off his account, as he surely will be, he will find another one. I do not care whether Mike Corley has an email account or not. It is a matter of supreme indifference to me whether his fanciful account of persecution is aired or not. If he thinks that he has been persecuted by M15 and Chris Tarrant, then that is a matter for him. But there is a world of difference between repeatedly spamming usenet - which is unacceptable - and setting up a Web Site containing his post, which is entirely acceptable. Then it will be possible to choose whether or not to partake of his fantasy. However although I would not like to see the censorship of posts because they demonstrate evidence of mental illness, I suspect that Mike Corley will inevitably be censored by his ISP following a number of complaints of usenet abuse and mailbombing. ---- David Toube Lecturer in Law QMW, University of London WWW: http://www.qmw.ac.uk/~ugtl027/index.html David Boothroyd's British Elections Home Page WWW: http://www.qmw.ac.uk/~laws/election/home.html 11678 Tag: Importing macros Tag: 101785

How about opening the old version and then saving it as a new 2007 template?

Thanks for the suggestion.

Let me make sure I understand: open the .dot template in Word 07 and then
save as a .dotm file.

Yes?

If it is a one time move that doesn't need automation, then you can manually
use the Word Organizer.
Go to Word menu Tools/Templates and Add-Ins.../
Within the dialog, click on the Organizer button.
Using that interface, open the old template on one side and the new template
on the other. Select items to copy across. Note the tabs for macros,
toolbars, etc.
