    - Send a Word document by email I want to send the active document per email (or per fax). Now manually u could choose in the menu, File , Send To, Mail recepient This opens a heading in word window above to give emal title, recepient etc. This i wonna do in my Vbcode, can i give some code to call up the email header. So user just has to fill in tile and recepient and cicks send button. I heared about creating a macro, but haven't made one yet, is this difficult and the problem is it can't be word version/language dependent ! It has to work in all word versions up to Word2000. I did find some code on the net that doesn't use the header but all pars are filled in through code using the Activadocument.routingslip But this is not really what i want to do (and allso this gives me an error Mail is not installed on my system allthough i have Outlook express). I want to leave he email sending up to word itself, so user kan click words sending button and use the email header. Tag: VBA-code shared by multiple users ? Tag: 76759

    - looping to change a font size I'm trying to write a silly little macro that goes to every table in an active document, looks for a particular style, then sets that selection to 9 points. I have this: For Each aTable In ActiveDocument.Tables Selection.Find.ClearFormatting Selection.Find.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("Note") Selection.Style.Font.Size = 9 Obviously it doesn't work (or I wouldn't be here). When I run this macro it seems to change whatever style the cursor happens to be at at the time it starts, from that point forward. it never even seems to get "into" the tables. If i have the cursor inside a table when i run the macro it seems to do what i want. I need this to be an auto-open macro. Any advice? Thanks. Tag: VBA-code shared by multiple users ? Tag: 76754

    - Getting a MsBox when Automating Word from the Outside Hello, I am automating MS Word from the "outside' using a script and all is well. Now I want to get Word to display a MsgBox actually in Word. How do I call MsgBox to actually come up in Word when I am automating from the outside? (From looking through VBA's object inspector I found that MsgBox is a member of the Interaction class, which is a member of the VBA class. Can I access the VBA class when all I have in my script is a handle on the Application class? Or am I barking up the wrong tree here) Regards, Matthew Lock Tag: VBA-code shared by multiple users ?

    - Parsing a Word Document using VBA Hello, I am using VBA from Access to interogate word documents. The documents have a specific format but are edited using word - so users have full rights to modify the document as they wish. One portion of the document that I need to validate is data in a 3 column table. Some columns are "gray" and some are "white". I am currently using the .shading.texture, .shading.backgroundpatterncolor and .shading.backgroundpatterncolorindex to determine if the cell is gray. Is there an easy way to tell if a cell is gray (is not clear)? The color of the cell will determine what action the program performs. Since the data in the cell may not be correct, just parsing the cell is not a guarantee of what action to take either. Bill Tag: VBA-code shared by multiple users ? Tag: 76737

    - Checkbox -- delete or keep text I am looking for a way to select from choices of boilerplate text. We normally use the low-tech fill-in fields in Word, where you tab through fill-in fields in a document. I was thinking maybe we could put in the various paragraphs, and where we have choices, we would put in a check box next to each paragraph. Then, once the person has checked all their boxes, click a toolbar button to run a macro which will delete any paragraphs which have an unchecked box. I am guessing that each paragraph and each checkbox would need to be identified with bookmarks (I know how to do that part at least!). :) We often put instructions into hidden text in our documents, so I think I would just make the checkboxes themselves as hidden text as well, so no need to delete the remaining box, although would be nice if possible to do so. I have been looking at solutions using autotext or a mail-merge type operation, but turns out that is not a good option, since people usually need to see the entire paragraphs to know which ones to choose. Sample code I can copy and paste would be greatly appreciated, as I'm still in the record-a-macro-and-mess-with-it stage. Thanks in advance for any help/ideas!

    - Insert two autotext entries? I am trying to take a fill-in field (or maybe have the user click a button a toolbar and pop up a dialog box), have the user type an autotext shortcut, and then based on that shortcut choose the two correct entries to insert at two different bookmark locations. I'm no programmer, so I can record and manipulate macros, but don't know how to write them. See below for the macro I've managed to record that will insert the two entries at two bookmarked locations. Two problems with this code: - I have no idea how to get it to accept the user's input as to which autotext to use. This code just inserts the two autotext entries specified in the code itself. The way the autotext shortcuts work is that I will select a set of initals and the specific entries would be those initials with either an "s" or a "c" appended at the end of the shortcut. So, if I type "alw" the two shortcuts needed would be alws and alwc. If I type dpp, the two shortcuts would be dpps and dppc. I'm hoping if the user types the three initials, the macro can take over and "know" which two autotext shortcuts it should be using. - the autotext entries I need to use are stored in a document that we save in our startup folder, so all the users share it and are able to access our "system wide" autotext entries from it. However, this macro only seems to work with autotext entries that are in my own Normal template. Any shortcut that I try to use from our shared document returns an error saying that the "requested member of the collection does not exist". We could just put in two fill-in fields and have the users type the appropriate shortcuts in each place, however I am hoping to use a macro to help assure that the two entries inserted are always for the same person (so we can't accidently put in contact info block for one person and put in a signature block for another person.) Am I trying to do the impossible or obscenely complicated here? Any ideas anyone has would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!

    - How to deselect floating text box In Word 2000 I have a floating text box in a cell of an many-row table.

I tried some GoBack commands to bring the cursor back to where the box had been but they don't always take the cursor to the right location. What I really want to do is start the macro with the text box already selected by the user, then deselect the box and put the cursor immediately in front of it so I can delete the paragraph containing it.

    - Convert slide object to jpg I'm using "Send To Word" to get my slides and speaker notes to a Word document for further editing and reformatting. The slides are sent as "slide objects"; this results in an enormous Word file size. In m.p.powerpoint I asked if there is a way to get "Send To Word" - or some similar function - to send jpgs or some other image style. My other option is to convert the slide objects, programmatically, to jpgs. I tried the following: Selection.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.ConvertTo ClassType:= "Paint.Picture", DisplayAsIcon:=False but I get "Run-time error 5360: The server application, source file, or item cannot be found..." Is there a way in vba (or other way) to convert the slide objects to pictures? BTW, my workaround is to use SnagIt to capture the image of the slide object in the clipboard, delete the slide object, and paste the image in its place. Tedious for long documents, however!

How can I let multiple users share a global Word VBA-projekt ?
So far I've placed the project in the Word Autostart folder of every single
user.
