    - Text Selection with VBA Hello, I am new to VBA in Word and I was wondering if=20 someone could help me please! I have a string in a Word document that I want to copy=20 from Word and then copy to an Excel worksheet. But the=20 string has a hard return at the end of it. So how do I=20 copy from the beginning of the string to the hard return?=20 I know the position in the document that the string starts=20 at but I do not know how to copy only to the carriage=20 return. For examle, when you select "Show/Hide =B6" to Show=20 it looks like: 125 North Street=B6 How do I use VBA to select only up to the hard return? I=20 hope this makes sense. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Tag: autoexec error Tag: 60011

    - alphabetize mail merge I am developing a mail merge catalog in Word and using a query in Access as my data source. The table that the query references in Access is alphabetized by last name, the query in Access is alphabetized by last name, but the mail merge catalog prints in the order that the records were entered, rather than alphabetical order. How can I get the mail merge catalog to print in alphabetical order? Tag: autoexec error Tag: 60007

    - Range Object positioning trouble Hi everybody! I've got some troubles, working with Range: Here is a code context: .. Call Word.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add("A" & CStr(iter), Word.ActiveDocument.Range(bmStart, bmStop)) .. bmStart and bmStop are changing from 0 to ActiveDocumet.Characters.Count, and mark parts of the document with different formatting. For the majority of test documents that works perfectly: I get Bookmark from Character # bmStart (incl) to Character # bmStop (incl), but for the moment I've got a document, for which from the very beginning of the document it works as Range from Character # (bmStart - 1) (incl) to Character # (bmStop - 1) (incl). Any specific features about this very document I've not found. Why could it be? Thanks, Alex Tag: autoexec error Tag: 60002

    - How to handle add-in clash I've just discovered that a template I distribute is clashing with Acrobat 6. When someone who has installed Acrobat 6 and its Word add-in creates a document based on my template, all is fine. But when that user saves the document, and then reopens it, my menu doesn't display, even tho I have code in my auto-open routine to display the menu if it isn't on the menu bar. When such users disable the Acrobat add-in, all is fine. So there's clearly a clash with something Acrobat is doing, but I don't know what that is. Question: is the appropriate way to handle this clash to have my autoopen function unload the Acrobat add-in, or is there some better way to handle this? thanks, gary Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59998

    - >> Macro buttons Hi, I have a template the includes two macro buttons, each with code. The idea is that a user will choose one button to remove content. When a new document is created from the template there is no code for each of these buttons. When I check the template the code still exists for these buttons. How can I set up this template so that these buttons actually have code? Any ideas or suggestions appreciated :-) Cheers Jonathan Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59996

    - List template funkiness in Word 2003 At work, we are in the process of switching from Office 2000 to Office 2003. Part of that process is making sure that all of the macro solutions we use with Word will operate correctly under Office 2k3. Problem is, they don't and I can't quite figure out why. Here's the setup... Originally started in Word 97, we have a set of macros that provide the user with a choice of templates to use with their documents. These templates all have different body text styles, heading styles, TOC styles, outline numbering styles, etc. The users have the ability to switch templates from a drop down menu in a toolbar and all of the styles in their document will change accordingly. It was tought to get it so that the numbering would change correctly, but we finally got it working and it's worked fine now for 2+ years. Under Word 2k3, however, not everything works the way it should. Specifically, the outline numbering associated with the heading styles does not switch when the user selects a different template. Or rather, it switches properly sometimes, other times it doesn't switch at all or switches to an incorrect numbering style. When we set up the templates and styles, we defined the outline numbering through the style definition rather than through the Numbers and Bullets dialog because everything I'd found on the net said to avoid the latter and just define the numbering as part of my styles. After some tweaking and banging my head against my desk, I actually got it to work quite well. My question is this: Did something change internally that might affect this process? It works fine in Word 97 and Word 2000, but falls to pieces in Word 2003. I remember having to code around problems when we moved to 2k, so maybe there's some change I'll have to account for in 2k3?

    - Print a picture Box Image Dear Group I have created a scrollable picture in my application, ie a picture box as a member of another picture box, a couple of scroll bars and now I have a scrollable bitmap image larger than my screen. I would now like to be able to print it but the only example of how to do this is Q230502 - How To Print a Form That Is Too Large for the Screen or Page. By following this example with my setup picture box within picture box, I can only print the visible area and not the entire picture. When I follow the example in the exercise it works, however the picture boxes are separate and not with one as a member of another. Can I print the entire bitmap image in my setup? The article states that: Because the PictureBox's bitmap is stored in a device context in memory, you have access to the entire bitmap regardless of what is displayed. Is this still true in my current setup? If it is not possible can the group think of a workaround? Thanks again... Kagsy Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59992

    - Serial numbering of documents in a networked environment I would like to know the recommended method of inserting an automatic "serial" number in a document. An example of this would be a company-wide outgoing fax serial number. I realize that it is rather big, in the sense that it could include many issues (what kind of field should be used, how do we keep the user from altering it and so on). Since I have a background in DOS programming, I am primarily interested in the file functions and locking mechanism necessary to save and retrieve the serial number from an external file, since we are operating in a networked environment. Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance. Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59991

    - Returning selected shape from within drawing canvas I'm trying to determine the name of the currently selected shape within a drawing canvas, but all I get is the name of the canvas itself. MsgBox Selection.ShapeRange.Item(1).Name MsgBox Selection.Range.ShapeRange(1).Name This all returns the name of the drawing canvas, although only one of the shapes within the canvas is selected. MsgBox Selection.ShapeRange(1).CanvasItems(1).Name Returns the name of the first added shape in the canvas and that's not necessarily the currently selected shape. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    - Formatting individual paragraphs in a Cell I'm stuck. I'm writing a few one-line paragraphs into a table cell (actually a label in a word-created blank labels document). All of the text is aligned left. But for a few cells, I want to add an additional one-line paragraph that's aligned right and italicized.

    - Can't use word wrap in Word 2000 macros When I try to use the "Record New Macro" system in WD2000 to change an in-line picture to be text-wrapped, the text wrapping options in the picture formating dialog are grayed out. There is a tech note that describes a similar problem (WD2000: Unable to Record Macro for Inline-to-Floating Picture Conversion; Article ID : 209800)that says the work around is to select the picture, cut it, then paste-special as a picture, then select it and change the wrap option. This doesn't work (at least not in Word 2000 on Wuindows 2000). Is there a work around or a way to actually code this in the macro editor? Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59978

    - Calling Otherproject.Sub from Normal.ThisDocument Two questions, really. I've got my macros in "MyMacros.dot" startup template. But I need some of them in my Normal.ThisDocument Document_New/Open/Close routines. Haven't been able to call them out of the MyMacros project with any variation of syntax ([MyMacros.vbp].[Utils].DoSomething). So, I've had to copy some of them over to a local module in Normal which seems kind of silly and redundant. Is that because you just can't call out of project from ThisDocument or because I just don't know how to do it?

    - adding bookmarks stop without message why I have a document directory that consists of word documents and a table of contents that relate to those documents. So I thought I would create bookmarks as they relate in the table of contents. Then create adobe acrobat pdf from that. Well I had to modify the bookmarks with _ and some search fields. So I massage them with c language. The following code works with the files I created with C language. The problem is that I can only create 9 bookmarks and the program finishes prematurely without giving me a message why. When I check out in word 2000 with inserting bookmarks I find the 9 bookmarks there but the dropdown box v isn't available. It can't add more bookmarks .I also tried this code also : "ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.ShowHidden = True For Each aBookmark In ActiveDocument.Bookmarks If Left(aBookmark.Name, 1) = "_" Then MsgBox aBookmark.Name Next aBookmark It ends up with the same unfilled record count. I know that there is at least 12 more _ items to add with the above code by dies with just 9 records.

    - Class Module for Save Events Word 2000 I've been experimenting with my first class module. Here's what I have: Class Module ========== Public WithEvents App As Word.Application Private Sub App_DocumentBeforeSave(ByVal Doc As Document, SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean) If ActiveDocument.Name = "Locates.doc" Then SaveDocument End Sub Private Sub SaveDocument() ThisDocument.SaveFile End Sub Standard Module ============ Dim X As New clsSaveEvent Private Sub Document_Open() InitializeSaveEvent End Sub Sub InitializeSaveEvent() Set X.App = Word.Application End Sub Sub SaveFile() < Some code > End Sub So the event gets initialized when the document is opened. Each time a save event occurs the code in the class module runs, and if the document name is "Locates.doc" then SaveDocument, and finally SaveFile are called. This seems to work rather well, but being a class module newbie, I have several questions. I hope no one minds that I'm piling all these questions into one message, but they are all related to the same issue, so I figured that it would be easier this way. 1) The event works at the application level, and I want it to run only in a specific document, which is why I have the App_DocumentBeforeSave routine testing for the document name. I tried putting Set X.App = Word.ActiveDocument in the InitializeSaveEvent routine with Public WithEvents App As Word.Document in the class module. No errors occur with these lines in place, but at the same time, nothing appears to happen when I save the document. Is there a way to make this work only at the document level? 2) The event gets initialized when the document is opened, but I've noticed that after changing code in the module, I often need to initialize the event again. It makes sense that if the code in the event is changed, you'd have to reinitialize the event. However, is it possible that other changes, such as changes to the document or template, might also require the event to be reinitialized? 3) My experience with forms in Access, Excel, and Word have taught me that it's easy to end up with looping code when using before and after events, and that makes me a little leery here. What are the drawbacks, if any, of using the App_DocumentBeforeSave? 4) While the code above basically works, there is an annoyance that I have yet to solve. Say that the user does a Save As. The code will run as expected, but when the code completes the Save As dialog box will be displayed. I don't want that because I'm trying to control how the document gets saved, and I don't want the user to be able to change the name or the location of the file. Is there a way to prevent the Save As dialog box from being displayed (I read in the Help that the return value for the Cancel button is 0, and I thought maybe that could somehow be used to suppress the Save As dialog box, but I'm not sure how that would work)? 5) This is somewhat related to question 4. Is there a way to disable the Save As option in a specific document (not application-wide)? Any information that you may be able to provide will be greatly appreciated. -- Tom State of Montana Department of Justice Help Desk "Making the world a safer place." Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59956

    - Highlighting bookmark text I am working on a macro that will get info from the user and insert it at a bookmark in the document text. If the user doesn't enter info, I want to provide reminder text for later editing (but I don't want this to appear as default text in the input box), AND I'd like to highlight the reminder text. Sample code is: ' Get the mailing and receipt dates from the user; MailDate1 = InputBox(MailMsg & Doc1) ' If no user input, define and format help text If MailDate1 = "" Then MailDate1 = "ENTER MAILING DATE" End If ' Go to the bookmark and enter the date .Bookmarks("Mail1").Range _ .InsertAfter MailDate1 Is there a way to easily highlight the help text without doing a find/replace or similar action?

    - Problem building a COM Add-in for Word 2003 Folks, After building a VBA macro for Word 2003, I want to convert it to a COM Add-in so I can distribute it. I do not know if this is the correct group in which to post this question, but I'll start here. I followed the excellent example, "Converting Microsoft Office VBA Macros to Visual Basic .NET and C#," which I found at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnofftalk/html/office11072002.asp This shows how to build a COM Add-in for PowerPoint. I followed the example and it works like a charm. But when I do the same thing to build a COM Add-in for Word, it is never activated. I set a breakpoint at the OnConnection subroutine and the code never breaks. It's one of those things that makes me go "hmmm....." Any help would be appreciated, including a suggestion for the proper group in which to ask this in the event that this is not the proper one. /Joel Finkel finkel@sd-il.com Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59947

My aim is to create a converter. I fully appreciate that the same objects do not exist in VB so I will use CreateControl to create the comparable desired objects.

    - How do I set up option buttons to be clicked and selected? I am new to these complicated word functions. I am trying to set up a telephone consultation template for my pediatrics practice where people can just click options (e.g. fever, cough, etc.). Then they can e-mail them into the office so we have documentation (in this world of medical liability, it's a must). I would like to have option buttons and scroll down options. I can create them, but I don't know how to get them functional (they just sit there unresponsive). Any help would be much appreciated. Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59916

    - Unlocking Microsoft Word and other Microsoft programs How can I unlock Word and other programs from Micosoft? I can't even type anything, save or do anything. And when I put a disk in to open a document I can't even edit the document because it's locked. I need to get acces to the Microsoft programs for school and work. This is really a hassle for those who don't have much time for to be dealing with this. Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59912

    - ASK WITHIN IF (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE) I want to ask the user if the client owes any money and if so, to insert something. I have {IF {ASK "Does the client owe the firm money for late annual reports?"} = "yes""Please also forward your cheque in the sum of $180.00 to our firm with the enclosed documents"} Of course it doesn't work; I hardly expected it to. I've never done this kind of thing before and Word's help was useless. Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59909

    - recordset compile error in word Have a macro that runs on 2 other pc's with same windowsxp & officexp BUT another pc with same software after some time started failing with a compile error: Debugger highlighted: rstproj as dao.recordset said it was an undefined user type. The help suggested if it was a known type (it is) then look @ the references dialog box & make some changes ... I find references grayed out under tools. So how do I bring the references dialog box up? TIA BTW have reinstalled windowsxp & officexp but no banana :-(. -- _________________________________ in Christ's matchless name 73 ted & colleen n6trf kc6rue Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59908

    - Don't save macro code in template in generated doc Hi there. I have a Word .dot template file that I use to generated pre-formatted documents. The template contains some macro code that prompts the user for some data then generates a new doc. Anyway the project/module/code that is contained in the template is also being saved in the final document; and I don't want that macro code in my final document. So I wanted to change the macro code in my template to modify the generated document in some way so when it is saved (by the end-user) the macro code that was contained in the template should NOT be saved with the newly created doc file. Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks. Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59904

    - Style duplication/copying There does not seem to be any way to programatically copy one style, or part of a style, to another style. Nor a way to "update to match selection" as one can do from the GUI. I have written some tedious code to clone the data property by property, but there should be a better way. Is there?

    - Centering Table in Frame I have a macro that inserts a selected table and its caption in a frame and places it either at the top or bottom of the page. The table, created through a predefined table style, is centered. However when the table is placed in the frame, it is flushed left although the table properties shows that centered is still selected. (The frame stretches the length of the margin.) The caption is still centered. Manually selected center from the table properties does nothing either. How can I center the table within the frame? Thanks for any help Tag: autoexec error Tag: 59901
