    - looping through variables I have the following problem. I have several tables in a document and I need to work with the tables in a certain style. So I wrote a piece of code that loops through the tables, checks te style and if it is a match creates a variable in the variable collection of which the name is a counter for the matches and the value is a counter for the tables. This works fine, but when the matches exceed 10 the following occurs: While looping through my variables by itemnumber the order is changed. I use the following code: For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Variables.Count iTmp = ActiveDocument.Variables(i).value and now expect to see my matches from 1,2,3,....,9,10,11... and so on... however I get: 1,10,11,12,..,2,3,4...

    - Mail Merge Update I have a mail merge document that is linked to an Access database table. A VBA procedure runs from Access that updates that table thereafter opens the linked mail merge document. My problem is that when I open the mail merged document through the Access VBA procedure it does not update the record in the merged doc but when I open the same document manually, first it prompts me that it will run a SQL statement from the Access table to merge that data and when I click OK it shows the new record. (keep in mind that when the same mail merge document is opened through the VBA procedure it does not prompt me for anything instead opens the document with the last existing record). Is there a way that I can code the Word document to somehow refresh the merged records on open since it does not do so when I open it through my procedure? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Tag: can you add automatic sequential numbering to a word template? Tag: 75524

    - Macro Security Error with Managed Assembly If fast food were this hard, grocery store shelves would be empty. Where's a sample or walkthrough on Word documents using managed assemblies from an HTTP location? Sure, Word finds the assembly but it still can't resolve security errors: "The current .Net security policy does not permit SomeDoc.doc to load custom macros." I've combed the web for hours but still haven't found the hidden text to make it work. Can't it just be simple? Of all of the VSTO samples, how about one that has a DOC, and assembly, the steps to authorize the download location from an HTTP, and just work if the user says so. Thanks for any pointers.

    - Mail Merge problems with Microsoft CRm quotes Dear Word experts, How are you? Normally I spent time in the special Microsoft CRM (Customer Relationship Management) newsgroup, but the answer to my question can not be answered...yet. That's when I found this group. Our problem is the following. We are using the Microsoft CRM software to manage customer relationships. This piece of software should 'naturally' tie into other MS applications such as Word and Excel. However....we are facing a big issue when mail merging to Word. The situation is as follows: MS CRM allows you to create a quote on which you can put a number of products (line items). The structure would look something like this: Product Pieces Price Total Price Product X 2 50 100 Product Y 4 20 80 Etc Etc When the quote is finished, you can start a process which brings all your products and other quote details(e.g customer address details) to Word. Now the problem comes up. As an end-user, you seem to haver little influence in how the items are put into the quote template. They are just 'dumped' in randomly. We however, would like to group our products by a unique identifier (in this case: software, hardware and instruction) and display them in their own little section. So, ideally: Software Product X 2 50 100 Hardware Product Y 4 20 80 Etc. I now I am asking a lot, but is it possible (perhaps by putting in 'IF' statements) to design the template in such a way that it will not put all products in one table, but group them according to their type and calculate the subtotals accordingly. This would really, really help us . Microsoft can not help us at this time and we are getting lost. Thanks!!!!!!!! Michiel Tag: can you add automatic sequential numbering to a word template?

    - Insert Landscape Page I need to create a macro that inserts a page break after the current page (which could or could not be the last page) and creates a landscape page. The problem is I don't know how to test for where the user will be in the document. Is there a code that goes to the bottom of the current page?

    - Tab stop weirdness In my macro I want to clear all tabs, then set two tabs which should be active for any text that the macro pumps out in the rest of the document.

    - Auto Correct-Option of capitalizing after numbers, i.e., L4-5. I would like to see the "option" of being able to automatically capitalize the first word in each sentence after ending the previous sentence with a numeral. I work for orthopaedic surgeons and a lot of my sentences end in, for example, L4-L5. After becoming accustomed to this with Word 97, it's hard to remember to capitalize those. Also, I used to be able to type 79yog, and using Auto Correct, it translated to 79-year-old gentleman. I now have to put a space after 79 and just have yog transfer to year-old gentleman, which leaves a space after 79 - so it translates to 79 -year-old gentleman. Please make these options available in Word again. Thanks, Terry Lagnston ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Passing variables between user forms and modules I can't seem to find the best way to pass variables between a user form and a module. Typically, I'm trying to send variables to a module to control how it initializes fields during the load event, and sending variables back to the module to determine subsequent processing based on the user's choices in the form. I know that if the form is still available (even if hidden) the module can access the form objects with proper qualification. But it doesn't seem to work the other way. That is, there doesn't seem to be any way to access module variables from a form, unless I declare the variables as Public. But that seems sloppy, somehow.

    - Macro Recording - Entering Text in a Text Box I am trying to write a macro that copies text from Document A, opens Document B, and pastes the text into a textbox in Document B. Unfortunately, while recording the macro I can manually open Document B, but can't seem to get the focus on the textbox. The macro ends up just pasting the copied text on the first line of Document B. Any suggestions? Thanks Stephen Tag: can you add automatic sequential numbering to a word template? Tag: 75455

    - What event occurs on form load? I am trying to make some things happen when my user form loads in Word 2002. I have tried FormName_Load and FormName_Initialize, but neither seem to produce the effect desired. For example, consider a userform that you bring up, and at initialization you want it to make some checks and based on these render certain controls non visible. This is what I am trying to do.

    - VB API translating into VBA Hi, I'm trying to use a Named Pipe in Word2003. I will let Word talks via this pipe with another application that serves as an pipe server. I have this working in two other programming laguages Xbasic and PureBasic. Now I want add VBA to it The API function (Visual Basic version) doesn't work in VBA and let Word crash is the following: Public Declare Function CallNamedPipe Lib "kernel32" Alias "CallNamedPipeA" _ (ByVal lpNamedPipeName As String, _ ByRef lpInBuffer As Any, _ ByVal nInBufferSize As Long, _ ByRef lpOutBuffer As Any, _ ByVal nOutBufferSize As Long, _ ByRef lpBytesRead As Long, _ ByVal nTimeOut As Long) As Long When I change all the Longs in Integers and call it as an CallNamedPipeA version it doesn't crash anymore and the communication does something. Declare Function CallNamedPipeA Lib "kernel32.dll" ( _ ByVal lpNamedPipeName As String, _ lpInBuffer As Any, _ ByVal nInBufferSize As Integer, _ lpOutBuffer As Any, _ ByVal nOutBufferSize As Integer, _ lpBytesRead As Integer, _ ByVal nTimeOut As Integer) As Integer Both versions do get a connection to the pipe server which is running at that moment. The ReadFile() action in the server doesn't return with success, res = 0. The server does work correct in connection to other programs. -------------- start of VBA code ----------- Option Explicit Private Const pipeName As String = "\\.\pipe\mynamedpipe" Private Const BUFFSIZE = 1024 Private hpipe As Integer Private myerror As Integer Public Const INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE As Integer = -1 Declare Function CallNamedPipeA Lib "kernel32.dll" ( _ ByVal lpNamedPipeName As String, _ lpInBuffer As Any, _ ByVal nInBufferSize As Integer, _ lpOutBuffer As Any, _ ByVal nOutBufferSize As Integer, _ lpBytesRead As Integer, _ ByVal nTimeOut As Integer) As Integer Public Sub CallAPipe() Dim res As Integer, cbRead As Integer, numBytes As Integer Dim lpInBuffer As String Dim lpOutBuffer As String lpInBuffer = "Some text from Word." numBytes = Len(lpInBuffer) lpOutBuffer = String(BUFFSIZE, 0) res = CallNamedPipeA(pipeName, lpInBuffer, numBytes, lpOutBuffer, BUFFSIZE, cbRead, 0) If res = 0 Then myerror = Err.LastDllError MsgBox "Error number " & myerror & Error(myerror), vbOKOnly Else MsgBox "Ok" End If End Sub -------------- end of vba code ----- Is there someone who has done this before and can point me in the right direction with this code? All kind of help with this code is appreciated. Regards, Marcel Tag: can you add automatic sequential numbering to a word template? Tag: 75440

    - Word bug editing field text in text-wrapped table The code below should create a new document field and remove its code text. However, in Word 2000 and XP, if the range of the new field happens to occur inside a table which has its "Text Wrapping" property set to "Around", the text "T " is always left behind in the field. In fact, any assignment to the field code's "Text" property appends "T " to the end of the text assigned. Has anyone seen this apparent bug before? Does anyone have a solid workaround? The only workaround I've found is to call "Delete" on the field's code before assigning a value to its "Text" property. Thanks. Tag: can you add automatic sequential numbering to a word template?

    - Close Document Failure in Word 2002 Does anyone know why this would fail Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone ActiveDocument.Close Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsAll Most of my experience is in Excel VBA, but it seems like this should work. What I get is a Save As... dialog and an error that says "Run-time error '4198': Command failed" when I click the Cancel button. I'm trying to avoid the dialog box with the dispalyalerts = none, but it keeps popping up anyway. When I choose Debug from the error dialog it appears to be hung up on the .close line. Is there an alternate way to close a document without being prompted to save? Thanks Tag: can you add automatic sequential numbering to a word template? Tag: 75424

    - Points returned by Information(wdHorizontalPosition...) In a macro, the value returned by "Selection.Information(wdHorizontalPosition..." and "Selection.Information(wdVerticalPosition...)" is in points, even though the help says the value is in twips. I assume that the function is accurate. Should the returned value be rounded or truncated or used exactly as returned? For example, if a paragraph is indented 0.5 inches, the returned value is 36.0 points which computes to an actual indent of 0.5 inches. However, if the paragraph is indented 0.25 inches, the returned value is 18.45 points which computes to exactly 0.25625 inches. Can Word actually do its metrics in fractions of points and, for that matter, in fractions of twips? When returned values are converted to twips, occassionally the answer is in fractions of twips. I have double- and triple-checked the calculations and for multiples of 1/2 inch (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, etc.), the results are always perfect. Thanks for your help.

    - Stop recording macro while dialogue box is open I asked this question a week or sso ago but did not make it clear exacctly what I needed to do. Someone called Doug offered some suggestions but I cannot find the original post - so here is my question: I want to automate a repetitive sequence by creating a macro to run the following actions, (once Record New Macro has been started): Click on Insert Click on Field In Categories, click on Mailmerge In Fieldnames, click on MergeField Place the cursor into the field where you can type in the name or description of the mailmerge field. Now, STOP recording. (Because the details of the mergefield will be different every time that this is used, on the many hundreeds of mergefields that we need to create) Trouble is, with this dialogue box open, you cannot click on the macro toolbar to stop the recording. Is there a keystroke/combination that does this? Or any tother solution? Doug xxxx did try to help me before but I didn't describe the requirement quite correctly and also I cannot find that previous post...
