    - reducing font of a bookmark field I'd like to add some code that would check to see if the text of a bookmark field is two lines (containing a paragraph mark) and if it is, then to reduce the font of all those bookmarks to 10 point so it will fit in the allotted space in my form.

    - saving text Here's my question....is it possible to write into a Word macro: copy text|open wordpad|paste text|save as Text.txt (to desktop)|close Wordpad|close Word active document. I'm having an issue that this would solve entirely but I dont know if its possible to involve another program in a Word macro. Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site? Tag: 61323

    - Get *.doc and *.rtf files in 1 folder listed on a UserForm? Is it possible to get all *doc and *.rtf files in a selected folder on a user form in Word XP? Any idea how I could tackle this problem? Or are there any examples around from which i could copy and paste the structure? *Background info: Some of the files will be selected on the user form by the user. Also, the user will set only one of the files as the "main file". Only selected files will be processed by another macro. The main file will be processed differently. The files should be displayed on the form with radio buttons. Ciao, ANDy Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site? Tag: 61314

    - Tools for creating application to integrate with Word Hi, I'm going to write a program that is to be integrated with word and I don't quite know where to start. I've been fiddling with VBA for a while but there are too many limitations. I need to know what tools will make the task easier. - It should be possible to fire via a word toolbar. - I need to use functions that are obviously used internally by Word but that I can't find in the VBA docs, like the _correct_ word count as opposed to the one described in the docs that counts newlines and punctuation. I can write my own, but prefer to use what already exists. - I need to package the program nicely so it's easy to install. What tool(s) will be more helpful? Should I go with .NET? Which programming language? I know C++ well, and some VBA. Perhaps C#? Any pointers will be greatly appreciated! Thanks :-) Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site? Tag: 61313

    - Changing Styles This is crazy. I am trying to change the style "COOL" in the document to another style called "NOTSOCOOL". I wrote this: With ActiveDocument.Range.Find .Style = "COOL" .ClearFormatting .MatchWildcards = False With .Replacement .Style = "NOTSOCOOL" End With .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll End With Doesn't work! I am positive that nothing extra is set, the same code (when .style is removed and .text is added) finds and replaces words with no problems. The styles definitely exist and I did a manual Find and Replace (Edit - Find) and it works fine. What's wrong with the code?

    - Limits in Heading Numbered paragraphs and cross references Anybody know of "documentation" of the apparent limits in Word(97, 2000, 2002. 2003) that apply to heading numbering. I used Word 2003 for the following. I tried to find out how many heading numbered paragraphs could be contained in a single document. So I wrote a little macro to keep generating paragraphs, each consisting of only the counter. I interrupted the macro when the count got to a bit under 36000. I then applied the Heading 1 style to the whole document. So each paragraph is numbered from 1 to the number of paragraphs and the text of the paragraph is the same as the paragraph number. I then used the Insert | References menu to insert a reference, initially using the /h option. I was able to successfully insert a reference to the number of the last paragraph, however, when I almost immediately followed that by attempting to insert a reference to the paragraph's text, the cross reference inserted was to an entirely different paragraph. I tried a few more insertions, eventually getting to the point where the incorrect cross reference was always inserted, and finally to a point where the Insert Cross Reference dialog, in effect, blew up. Ultimately, an attempt to insert a reference to the later paragraphs, caused things to hang AND the first 32767 items disappeared from the list of headings in the cross reference dialog. In addition, Norton Auntie Virus 2004 got blown out of the System tray. I did not notice the point at which this occurred. Note that I do not use the NAV Office plug-in and I disabled NAV's Autoprotect when I ran the macro, so NAV should not have been poking around. Perhaps, most important, I noticed the following. While scrolling thru the list of Headings in the cross reference menu, the first 32767 were listed in a normal font, but starting with 32768, both the paragraph number and text are dimmed My questions include: 1. What is the limit on the number of Heading numbered paragraphs that may be included in a document? 2. What is the limit on the number of such paragraphs that may be consistently cross referenced via the cross reference menu? I do recall seeing a statement that the number of bookmarks in a document is limited to about 16K. Obviously, that places an upper limit on the number of heading paragraphs that can be cross referenced, and the number is reduced further by other bookmarks that may be used in the document. So, I also must wonder why Word allows the inclusion of more heading paragraphs than the bookmark limit without some sort of warning? Heck, I imagine if I tried to generate a TOC, things really would have gone haywire. And, of course, my last silly question, where's the documentation? -- http://www.standards.com/; See Howard Kaikow's web site. Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site? Tag: 61300

    - Storing Program Settings Hello, I have around 30 (at most) text boxes and combo boxes that have settings which need to be stored and restored when the program starts. (This is a VBA program but I think, it also applies to VB). In the future, many more settings could be added and they would also have to be saved and loaded (like a template a program uses for different conditions). I am not sure about the best way to go about this that could save coding in the long run. I wanted to write a text file like: Condition1;Value1;Value2;Value3 Condition2;Value1;Value2;Value3 Condition3;Value1;Value2;Value3 and when loading this file, to load (say) the first three textboxes with their corresponding values, I would split each line and check the condition and populate the textboxes / comboboxes. Is this the best way to do this? Thank you for your time / responses. Vince Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site? Tag: 61296

    - Running a Macro in a Template, on Event Hi. I have a macro that I've constructed in word which will insert bookmarks as per a table template that I've created in our Visual FoxPro based database/frontend. The Visual FoxPro frontend inserts this information into Word - and I've also instructed it to use a word template which contains my Macro The Macro works fine, but what I'm wanting to do is automate the process, rather than having to run the Macro once the document has been produced from FoxPro, using the .dot file. Is there any way to make this happen? I've tried several of the On-Events but none of them seem to work. What I basically want it to do, is once the Document has been opened and the information has been sent to it from our FoxPro database, that the Macro automatically runs Thanks in Advance David Bloch Houston Medical Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site?

    - Word Template - wanting to run a Macro on opening Hi I have a Word template that I've created which has a macro attached to insert bookmarks across a letter template we have in our database system. The database system uses the object libraries in Word to create the Word Document and can use a template to start its design with. This works fine and the Macro will work across the letter template we extract from our database. What I am wanting to do is make the code run automatically as soon as the template has been opened. Here is the code I have so far. Sub Bookmarks() 'Enter the number of lines in the letterhead. I.E six lines is 11 LineCount = 11 ' Pat Name Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Patient Name:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="patname" ' Your Ref Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Your Ref:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="yourref" ' Address Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Address:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="address" ' Our Ref Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Our Ref:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="ourref" 'DOB Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "DOB:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="dob" ' Reqdate Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Request Date:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="reqdate" ' Sex Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Sex:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="sex" ' CollectDate Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Collection Date:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="collectdate" ' Medicare Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Medicare No:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="medicare" ' RecDoc Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Receiving Doctor:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="recdoc" ' RecDocRef Bookmark Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="RecDocRef" ' CopyToDoc Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Copy To Doctor:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="copytodoc" ' CopyToDocRef Bookmark Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="copytodocref" ' Examination Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "Examination:" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="examination" ' Findings Bookmark Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst, Count:=LineCount With Selection.Find .Text = "$$" .Wrap = wdFindContinue End With Selection.Find.Execute Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1 Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCell ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="Findings" ' Go Back to Top of Document Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToLine, Which:=wdGoToFirst End Sub With another part of code.

    - Not Visible Files I have a routine that performs functions A,B & C when a document is open (determined by "If Documents.count>0") and functions D,E & F when no documents are open (and the screen is 'grey'). Ocassionally a file that I opened in VBA with the "visible:=False" method set apparently is still technically open although it appears not to be (i.e., the screen is grey) (and it is not supposed to be. The routine that was supposed to close it did not.) How can I test for the existence of an open, not visible document.and then close it? Documents.count always returns 1 in this situation but if I try to close the ActiveDocument I get a runtime error saying that the function cannot be performed because no document is open.

    - VBScript: Printing question... I have some VBScript (in an Outlook Form), that calls "CreateObject("Word.Application"). The script processes some data then at the end of the procedure prints out the result. This works fine on my local machine, however, if another user attempts the same process it does not print the output. Ref: [msgbox "Printing to " & objWord.ActivePrinter] below... I added the msgbox, and now verified that on each machine the correct printer is configured (or displayed) in the msgbox. But, the form does not print. What I observe is; the item shows up in the respective printer queue(s) (but only for a very brief second) then vanishes and nothing prints... Suggestions/comments?

    - identifying most recently used symbol (via VBA) in MSO2003, as shown in the insert symbol dialogue box Does anyone know where the information for the most recently used symbol can be accessed via VBA? It must be stored somewhere, because it is the leftmost symbol of the recently used symbols in the insert symbol dialogue box. I often use the same symbol lots of times in a single document, so I want to assign a macro to a custom button that simply inserts whatever the last symbol was that was inserted in the document. It'll still be better than using the keyboard shortcut, for example [<alt>+0176], assuming I could even remember the keyboard shortcut... :-/ Thanks!

    - Regex & Wildcards Hey, I need to find the following by matching Wild Cards. 1.1 mol/L 1 mol/L 1mol/L 1.1 mol /L 1 mol /L 1mol /L 1.1 mol / L 1 mol / L 1mol / L 1.1 mol/ L 1 mol/ L 1mol/ L A sentence could contain any one this. For instance "James drank a solution of Nitrogen Peroxide with a concentration of 5.15 mol/L". This is what I could come up with: ([0-9.]@)( @)(mol/L) Takes care of any numerals / decimals but does not account for: a) The space between the number and mol/L (It looks for one space or more but there is a possibility that a space might not exist like 1.1mol/L) b) It strictly looks for mol/L and can't account for mol / L, mol/ L or mol /L. In order to use this, I would have to repeat each instance with appropriate spaces! Questions: 1) How do I write a single Wildcard match for all the possibilities listed above? 2) How can I say "Optional" in Regex. Eg. Di[peg] could be anyone of "Dig" "Dip" or "Die". But I need to say that "Di" may or may not be followed by "p" "e" or "g". In Perl, I would say "(Di)([epg])*" How do I say that in VBA? Thanks a lot for your time / any reponse.

The raw text is also needed to populate HTML preview pages for the .doc files. My question is simple - what is the easiest (preferably server side) method for converting .doc files into raw text. I'm running Windows server so I presume that .doc API and script commands would be fairly easy to implement. If a server side solution is impossible then a locally executed method could fit the bill too. It just needs to be QUICK and AUTOMATED. I'm not going to copy and paste from MS Word into Notepad for 10 hours every day. Any suggestions kindly requested.

    - AutoCorrect.dot : Run-time error '5941' ? greetings! and apologies if this is the wrong forum (please redirect me if it is). i need to export and import all my AutoCorrect entries, so they can be transferred to another machine. when i run dave rado's autocorrect.dot (http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ExportAutocorrect.htm) on work2k (under winxp) i get an error box saying "Run-time error '5941': The requested member of the collection does not exist." when i click "end" (1 of 3 choices, the other being "debug" and "cancel"), i get a newly created word document with a table, several rows filled with my entries, and then several more table rows empty. saving this document, and running autocorrect.dot (restore) on it gets me another box saying "This document is not in the correct format for an AutoCorrect Backup document". i tried deleting the blank table rows, saving, and using this instead, but get the same "This document is not ..." error box. i tried running Macros9.dot, but only a very few rows are created, meaning, most of my autocorrect entries are ignored. any and all help would be appreciated! cheers, pns Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site?

    - How do I display different parts of a Word document based on form. I am creating a Word Template which needs to display different sections of the document based on the selection in a form field at the beginning of the document. I need to minimize macro's - although I know this will require one. I don't want to put the entire text of the required section in the macro if there is a way to create the document and simply 'hide' the unnecessary sections based on form field selection. Any ideas?

    - Selection.Information Hi, I am using the following to get the number of pages there are in a Word document (from within Excel). I can also use it directly in Word without the "appWrd ". Dim EndPage as Integer EndPage = appWrd.Selection.Information (wdNumberOfPagesInDocument) This works sometimes, but the other times I get the error message "Run Time Error 91 Object Variable or With Block Variable not Set". Is there something additional I need to do so I do not get this error? I do not understand why it works sometimes but not all the times. THANKS! Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site?

    - repeat Find & Replace until no more ocurrences are found Hi, I want to replace all instances of multiple consecutive spaces in a document. When I record a Find & Replace command, 2 spaces are replaced with 1. And 3 spaces become 2; 4 become 3, etcetera, so multiple spaces still exist. This is the recorded code from Word XP. Selection.Find.ClearFormatting Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting With Selection.Find .Text = " " .Replacement.Text = " " .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = False .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False End With Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll How can I efficiently change the code so it goes on replacing multiple spaces until only single spaces are left?

I don't understand the problem at all. Thanks in advance for your help. If you need to test this Macrowith my document, don't hesitate to write me and I will send it to you.

    - Returning the value of a InlineShape Hi, I am trying to return the value of a combobox that I have inserted into a Word document. It is not a formfield because my list needs to consist of more than 25 members. As a result, I inserted a VBA control directly into the document. After doing this, I initialized the objects in the normal way, but haven't been able to isolate the code to return the current value. I was able to determine that controls inserted in this fashion are viewed programmatically as an inlineshape, and so far everything points to this being correct. Unfortunately I haven't found any documentation where the inlineshape is anything other than a graphic object. Could it be... activedocument.inlineshapes(1).???? Can someone please send me in the right direction? Desperate for help! Thanks, Jill Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site? Tag: 61186

    - How to resize a picture? In Word 2000 I have a macro to insert an picture that the user chooses, select the picture , and then make the height 1" (72 pt) - keeping the width proportional. I then want the macro to look at whether the width is greater than 320 pt and if so, make the width exactly 320 pt - keeping the height proportional (which means it will end up less than 1" - that's ok). The first set of steps below work - the picture change to 1" high. The second set of steps does not give an error message but does not do anything. What do I need to do to make the macro resize the picture to 320 pt wide, keeping the height proportional? TIA, Vivian Carroll 'SELECT & FORMAT THE PICTURE TO BE 1" HIGH - these steps work With Selection .MoveLeft Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend .InlineShapes(1).Width = Selection.InlineShapes(1).Width * 72 / _ Selection.InlineShapes(1).Height .InlineShapes(1).Height = 72 'CHANGE THE PICTURE TO BE ABOUT 3.2" WIDE IF IT IS WIDER THAN 3.2" - these steps don't work If .InlineShapes(1).Width > 320 Then .InlineShapes(1).Height = Selection.InlineShapes(1).Height * 320 / _ Selection.InlineShapes(1).Width .InlineShapes(1).Width = 320 End If End With End Sub Tag: getting date & time of a file from web site?

    - VBScript and a Merge Doc I found the answer to this question several months ago but with the newsgroup revamp I can't find it again so I apologise if this is the wrong place to post this. I am using a link to open a word application merge document, however with the new install of MS Word the document will not open as a merge form. The solution to this was to edit the registry entry, apparently in some patch or another they disabled this for security reasons. Can anyone point me at the knowledge base article, or give me the regedit instructions for this? New machine and user and the old tech who had the documentation is gone and so are the instructions.

Hi Folks,
How can I get the date and time of a file from a website? Say I wanted
to know the last time my site pages were updated, I'd use something like:

FileDateTime("http://www.mysite.com/index.html")

Any Ideas?

Cheers

I don't think this question has anything to do with Microsoft Word. You may
have a better chance of finding someone who knows by asking in one of the VB
or ASP groups.
