    - WordBasic Although a proficient Word user I'm new to WordBasic. Here's what I need - is it unrealistic? - and can you direct me to a more appropriate site if necessary. 1. An autoopen macro which will unprotect the form, then select a section, then add it to the AutoText entry list with a name, then protect the form again. 2. On clicking a command button - for it to unprotect the document again, then go to an existing bookmark, insert the said autotext entry, and then reprotect the document. Will be glad of help please. Helen 2. An autoclose macro which will go to the AutoText entries and remove the entry from the list. I've looked at the Help files, and borrowed a book on Visual Basic, but frankly I'm too inexperienced in code to benefit, unless I take months.... Tag: Macro Please Tag: 68808

    - How is Paper Size set for a Printer using a Program? Is there a way I could send from a program the PAPER SIZE to use for a PRINTER without the manual procedure of setting up the printer through its properties. For example instead of the default A4 or LETTER, I want the paper size 9.5 X 8.5 inches set first before proceeding with my printing program. Tag: Macro Please Tag: 68806

    - Sort I want to sort my Outlook Contacts list so I can insert the address, name, ect into a Word 2003 template using a list box. Presently I am sorting the 600 plus addresses as follows: Private Sub UserForm_Activate() Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application Dim fdrContacts As Outlook.MAPIFolder Dim itmContacts As Outlook.ContactItem Dim k As Integer Dim j As Integer Dim i As Integer Dim aBuf As String Set objOutlook = New Outlook.Application Set fdrContacts = GetNamespace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts) For Each itmContacts In fdrContacts.Items lstCompanyList.AddItem itmContacts.ItemProperties(52).Value _ & " " & itmContacts.ItemProperties(26) Next With lstCompanyList k = .ListCount For j = 0 To k - 1 For i = (j + 1) To (k - 1) If .List(i) < .List(j) Then aBuf = .List(j) .List(j) = .List(i) .List(i) = aBuf End If Next i Next j End With End Sub The problem is that it takes forever for the list box to be populated with the names of the companies. When you open up the outlook contacts it opens up immediatly and is sorted. How can I get a word VBA macro to open and sort the list box as fast as the outlook contacts. The other problem I have is that all of the names are sorted capitals first then all the lower case names. There has to be a better way. Any ideas? Thanks Mike Tag: Macro Please Tag: 68798

    - Getting program to work with Word already open... I have a situation. I have a Word VBA program that I am running but can't figure out how to make it work when there is already another Word document open. The userform itself will pop up but when it's supposed to transfer all the information over to a template it just sits there and does nothing. It works fine if there aren't any other open files though. If you could please provide some insight to this situation it would be of great help. Tag: Macro Please Tag: 68784

    - Toolbars I've got some weird things going on with a toolbar that I built in a word document. For some reason the toolbar is being displayed many times when the document opens up. Yet to my knowledge the macro which builds the toolbar is not being executed. If I right click in the toolbar space at the top of Word (where you can see the list of all toolbars) I can see a dozen or so instances of the toolbar. If I go to the bottom of the list and click "Customize" I can delete all instances of the toolbar and they then do not display. But the next time I go to open up the Word document all instances of the toolbar again are displayed. It's got me stumped. It seems that the toolbar is saved with the word application and not the document as when the document is not open, I still see the toolbar. Is there a way to have the toolbar stored with the document and not with the Word application? Where/how is the toolbar stored? Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

    - Script to Capture Data in Document Greetings - Let me say first that at best I consider myself an intermediate user of MS Office tools and that I am willing to try and learn anything. I am composing a large document ion Word that requires a list of acronyms, which are used in the document, to be added at the end. I am not much of a programmer, but wonder if a script/macro (VBA?) could be written and manually executed when complete with the document, via a tool bar button from the template, to scan the document checking for items that have either 3 or 4 uppercase characters enclosed within parentheses. i.e., "(COTS)" It would then check and capture the 3 or 4 words (which are Title Cap'd) prior to the open parens and copy it adjacent to the acronym in the table. i.e., "We use Commercial off-the-Shelf (COTS) applications." After capturing the data, the macro would list all items in a table and sort. i.e., "COTS - Commercial off-the-Shelf" The idea here is to eliminate the need for an editor or author to continually build a list of items used in the document and to ensure only items which are used are recorded in the subsequent table. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Bill Tag: Macro Please Tag: 68773

    - Include headers/footers when saving as HTML I am using Office 2003 on Windows XP. Saving an Word file as an HTML works great - the only thing is, it doesn't include the headers and footers in the document. Does anyone know how to include them when a file is "saved-as" an HTML? Or is there an alternative solution other than "save-as" (within Word)? I need a VBA or VB-script solution. Can someone please post some example code or otherwise enlighten me?

    - version problems - getting error message from macro run in 2000 I have created a macro that runs fine in both XP and word 2002. My problem is that when it was run on word 2000 the macro crashed at this bit of code: Sub UpdateBookmark(BkMrkToUpdte as string, TxtToUse as string) Dim BMRange As Range ***** this is the line it stopped at below Set BMRange= ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(BKMrkToUpdte).Range BMRange.Text = TxtToUse ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add BkMrkToUpdte, BMRange End Sub This code works fine in XP which I have and 2002 which my boss runs however when he tried to distribute it to another person with word 2000 it crashed here, with the message "requested member of the collection does not exist". Since I don't have 2000 I can not test this but was wondering if this is a version problem. I am currently trying to figure out if the person has all the documents that are associated with the macro since that might be the problem, however it should have bombed when I opened those documents.

    - MailMergeAfterMerge event Hi all, I am developing a c# console application that takes data from a database and doing a mail merge in word 2003 to create a contract. I added an event handler for the MailMergeAfterMerge event: _WordApp.MailMergeAfterMerge += new Word.ApplicationEvents4_MailMergeAfterMergeEventHandler(wrdApp_MailMergeAfterMerge); In the event handler I save the doc and am doing a Console.WriteLine to see when it is firing so I can debug it: result.SaveAs(ref _oContractPath, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing, ref _oMissing); Console.WriteLine(_oContractPath.ToString() + " Saved."); The issue I am having is that this event does not fire all the time. It is really inconsistent. Right now I am testing with 11 contracts. The first time I run the application one of the contracts does not get saved. The next time all will be ok. Then the next time I run it 4 contracts did not save. I don't know why the inconsistency but it is really bugging me. Does anyone have any ideas why it works only sometimes? Please Help!!

    - Relative file path I have an excel spreadsheet that contains calculations and a Word document that has a number of link references to it within the text of a report. Everything works fine and the excel sheets show up in the report as another page with headers and footers and correct page numbers etc. The problem occurs when I want to copy the two files to another project subdirectory and then try to make chnges to both. All the links in the Word document still refer back to the original excel spreadsheet back in the first project subdirectory. I have to manually repoint all the links to the new project subdirectory. Is there any way to cause the link to be to a relative address, that is make it look for the excel file in the same directory that contains the Word file?

You don't need a macro. Use a wild card search and replace. Help yourself
to Word Help where you'll find all the info you'll need. It will take some
work to figure it out but it will be worth it.
