    - Runtime 91 error for ActiveDocument in AutoExec macro I am trying to invoke MS word in the following manner: start winword.exe /lc:\glb\myglobal.dot /tc:\tmp\doctemplate.dot / myglobal.dot - My global template - contains the following logic Public Sub AutoExec() If ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Exists("CSWB") Then If (InStr(1, ActiveDocument.FullName, ".rtf") < 1) Then ActiveDocument.RunAutoMacro (wdAutoNew) End if End If doctemplate.dot - A document template that contains the AutoNew macro defined. Problem scenario: When I run - "start winword.exe /lc:\glb\myglobal.dot /tc:\tmp\doctemplate.dot /" from command prompt it works fine. I install Adobe Acrobat writer on my machine, and run the same command, It fails with a Runtime 91 error - Object variable not set Looks like ActiveDocument object is not initialized and fails when I try to access ActiveDocument.Bookmarks collection. When I uninstall Adobe acrobat writer, the problem goes away. This is happening in production as well (that actually triggered this analysis) but I don't necessarily see Adobe writer installed in production. Is there anything else that when installed would change the behaviour of AutoExec as I have mentioned ? If you have any ideas as to how can I avoid this, that would be great.

    - Delete line containing a form field Hello, I have a template that is used to create recipes for upload to a website. The person typing in the recipes is not very computer literate, so I made a form with fields for him to fill in with ingredients. The fields' default text is "Ingredient". I put in 15 lines for ingredients. Obviously, not all recipes have that many ingredients. I'd like to write a macro to delete the lines that don't have ingredients in them, i.e., they say "Ingredient" in the form field. To make it more complicated, I'd like to delete the entire line, not just the form field. Is there a way to do this? I've tried a find and replace, but that doesn't seem to work with form fields. Anyone have any guidance? Thanks! Melinda Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105213

    - Passing Word documents with macros as Sharepoint content types Hi I have been trying to nut this problem out for awhile now but not making alot of progress. I am trying to integrate Word 2003 with Sharepoint 2007 as follows: I have a site with a template library. I have developed a content type in another site and use it in a library. I want the user to be able to select a content type in a library and have an auto open event fire to open the sharepoint properties dialog. The user populates the field presented and these cascade though fields in the document. The fields are also available (as metadata) at the library list for filtering grouping and sorting Everything works fine except one thing. The problem is that when the content type is chosen from the library the macro doesn't fire and on inspection the macro is no longer available in the document. It does however fire and works fine in the template library. Does anyone know what is happening and how I can resolve this Thanks IanB Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105200

    - Loop I have a macro that I have been working on. It works exactly as I want to as long as I run it once. Basically I have a document that contains many notices. Each notice is 3 to 5 sections long based on criteria that I can identify. The macro correctly identifies the number of sections for each notice, prints it and deletes it so that the second notice is now the first. I can start the macro and print the first notice. Then start the macro again and print the second notice and so on until it reaches the end. So I know the macro is working. The problem is, I want to be able to run the macro with no user interaction. So a simple loop should work. But no matter how I try to make it loop, it does not run properly. (It prints part of them correctly, and part of them not correctly) I have tried: Start: (at the beginning of the macro) goto Start: Doesn't work I have tried do while selection.find.execute ("refer to:") = true macro Loop Doesn't work I have tried Do Macro Loop Doesn't work I have tried do until selection.find.execute ("refer to:") = false macro loop That doesn't work. I have stepped through the macro repeatedly. Everytime I step through it, it works perfectly. Then I can add a loop to it and it does not work correctly.

    - Automate the saving of rtf files to doc files Hello everyone: There are hundreds of Word rtf files saved on a shared drive that are taking up an enormous amount of disk space. These files are just copies of letters containing only text (from mail merges) that have been sent out to clients. If I save an rtf file as a doc file, the size of the file decreases considerably (from serveral thousand kb to several hundred kb). To conserve disk space, I would like to save all these files as doc files. If I were to do this manually, I would have to open each rtf file, save it as a doc file and then delete the rtf file. Assuming that all these files are in one folder, is there an easier way to do this? The name of the new file would be the same as the old file except for the extension. For example Filename.rtf to Filename.doc. Just renaming the filename does not appear to decrease the file size. Thank you for any help. Amy Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105195

    - need help with AutoOpen print macro on mail merge document We use an application which allows us to generate and print mail merge documents via Word. As near as I can tell, trying to print a mail merge document via this application opens Word, populates the merge fields with the appropriate data, then prints the document to the system default printer. One such document we use is a label document, and we use the following AutoOpen macro to divert the print job to their label printer without making them change their default printer each time: Sub AutoOpen() Application.WordBasic.FilePrintSetup Printer:="Dymo LabelWriter 330 Turbo-USB", _ DoNotSetAsSysDefault:=1 End Sub With this macro in place, the document is opened, the data is merged, and it's printed to the label printer. In most situations, this is adequate. However, we've been getting requests from people who want to be able to specify how many copies to print, and I've been having a lot of trouble figuring out how to make that happen. I've tried various methods of showing the print dialog box, so they could specify how many copies to print and be happy. Unfortunately, any time I've been able to get the print dialog box to pop up with AutoOpen, it will print the mail merge document before the data is merged in (it prints the merge field names rather than the data). If I tell the print dialog to print 3 copies, it will print 3 copies of the pre-merged document, then print one copy of the merged document. I'm pretty new to WordBasic and macros, and basically gave myself a crash course yesterday. I had also tried using an inputbox to prompt for the number of copies, then try to pass that to FilePrint (I think... I tried so many different things it's hard to keep track now) using the NumCopies argument, but that just resulted in errors. I'm open to suggestions at this point. Unfortunately, I have no control over the program that actually invokes Word to open and print the mail merge document, so I'm basically limited to what I can do with macros during the brief period the document is opened.

    - Problems with opening TextStream files I run a macro which selects sections of a Word document, then opens a TextStream file object and pastes in the text. The code I'm using is: Set docNew = fs.CreateTextFile(strNewDoc) docNew.Write (strNewFile & vbCr & vbCr & _ "This doc created on " & _ Format(Now, "dd mmm yyyy")) docNew.Close (fs is FileStreamObject). I have another macro in Excel that opens a selected doc created this way using: WD.Documents.Open doc (all variables are set good and the code works). Occasionally, the File Conversion dialog opens. I know these are not "real" Word docs, but simply text files with a .doc extension, but saving each of hundreds of files as Word docs adds an enormous amount of time to the loop. Is there anything I might be able to do to these files to prevent the Conversion dialog from opening? Or is there something I can add to the Excel code to assist these files in opening without the user having to mess with this? Ed Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105178

    - Running Word Macro from iSeries I've created a Document Template that contains a Macro. This Macro reads a file from the iSeries and populates bookmarks within the Template and prints the Document. Currently, the user has to open the document, click Tools, Macro's, Marco's, Run to produce the report; very messy. I want to fire off the document from the iSeries so the user doesn't have to mess with Word. I'm able to bring the document up from the iSeries, but it's not running the macro. I've tried everything I can think of, including things on this board and others. My code is running in an ILE program. I'm loading the command line from an array. My array looks like: STRPCCMD PCCMD('C: \Progra~1\Micros~3\OFFICE11\winword O:\COMMON\TEMPLATES\MQE*.* /mMQE()') . Everything works fine up to the /m. My document is MQE Letters.dot, and the Macro is MQE. In addition to the /m, I've also tried Call MQE, Call "MQE", Application.Run MacroName:="MQE", Run MacroName:="MQE", Call MacroName:="MQE"....the list goes on. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    - Spawned document from Template (Dot) loses macros Here is a screenshot I am working on: http://www.jkfweb.com/files/Example.JPG The file is a .Dot template file. It works great normally when a user opens from the Template and fills in the appropriate information. I have a few users who want to open the file, fill in there name and the Company Name and other appropriate fields and then save that as a .dot file. This would allow them to not have to re-type and look up the information everytime. The problem is the macros are apparently not being copied when word spawns document1 from the template. I'm assuming this is normal word behavior, but haven't been able to find a solution on word.mvps.org and a quick search in newsgroups didn't find the solution either. Any ideas how to get the macros to go into the newly spawned document as they are used to create new rows, do some error correction, and formatting of fields. Thanks in advance for any help.

    - Toggle symbols with VBA I'm trying to set up a roster where I can click on a symbol in front of a person's name and it will change from an "X" to a "O". I'm an expert at Excel VBA, but not familiar with Word VBA.

The list will be dynamic, so I need to write some generic code that can identify which symbol is clicked on and toggle it to the next symbol. Thanks.

I can select the whole table easily: Selection.Tables(1).Select and can select individual rows too: Selection.Rows(1).Select but I now need to select every row except the first one (2-x) where x could be any number, depending on how big the table is. Maybe some way of counting the rows in the table first (x) and then using that number to select rows 2-x?

    - Form repaint problem I have a VBA form to provide the user with status on a long-running macro. Normally, the status updates happen every few seconds without error. Sometimes, however, the form doesn't update at all, and can even generate a "(Not Responding)" error in the form's title bar. The macro completes successfully, but the user thinks it's frozen. I'm calling form.Repaint after I update the status text. Why might that be working some of the time and not all of the time? It does seem to be related to switching from Word to another app and back again, but it's not consistent. I've also heard of the DoEvents command, to yield control to the OS, but I've seen conflicting advice about how and when to use that. Any suggestions? I can provide code samples, but really, I'm just updating the text in the form and then calling .Repaint. Thanks, Ben Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105095

    - Word from Excel PasteSpecial Bitmap Problem Dear All, I am having a very strange and odd problem with Excel and Word. If you could kindly propose any solution ideas, I shall appreciate it very much. I have a reporting VBA application on the Excel. Smoothly produces all the reports. I have to put the reports in a Word application. The reports are not fixed row and column sizes. I have to generate a Bitmap image of the Excel report and tried to Paste it in the Word Application. Very strangely, on the very first runs no problems. It worked, I had the reports Bitmap pics on Word beatifully as I wanted but then later something happened, may be the ghost in the machine. Excel VBA is copying the range and sending it to the Word application but, the pasted bitmap is a blank object, sadly, very sadly nothing inside. In order to complete my reports on time, I tried a backdoor tactic and created a Word macro doing the PasteSpecial Datatype:=wdPasteBitmap and assigned it to a keyboard shortcut macro. Bingo! It worked. However it is taking so long to complete a full set of report with approx. 200 x 30 Cntrl-Qs and shifting between the applications is awfully open to error. I have tried another backdoor route because I were running short on time, I tried the Sendkeys method but unfortunately, the same ghost in the same machine, very first few runs it worked, then generated empty objects. I cleaned the Clipboard if incase there is a memory related problem. No progess. I tried to pause the code before and after the PasteSpecial steps. No progess. Then I wondered if the Excel Bitmap function is not working properly so I tried a code to generate my own bitmap pictures, which worked fine, but the same ghost in the same machine, blank pages were there after the second or third runs so sadly and so misfortunately. I tried the 2007 and 2003 vers. of Excel but sadly, very same. I am working on a licenced XP Pro and licenced Office Pro Pentium 4 with 4GbRAM and lots of disk space. If you may need to see the code, I shall send the code as well. If some Guru could help fiding the ghost in the machine, I shall be more then gratefull.

    - Security and VB References I have a sales person who install Office 2007 on there computer. The quoting software we use uses Word to create order forms. But I need to turn the Security level to low and go into VB area and check the approraite dll files under references. I don't have 2007 and trying to talk over the phone to find them has been interesting. I can't find the Security Area, I was able to get into the VB area but the references are grayed out or not available. So where is the secuity area and how can I make the references available?

    - Using Distributed Link Tracking to fix Hyperlinks Does anyone have references or experience with using Distributed Link Tracking to fix hyperlinks to documents in your domain. This works for OLE references and short cuts, but it appears not to work automatically for hyperlinks. -- Old Ed Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105055

    - Word VBA refernces to .tlb I have a vs2007 project using created extensibility add-in for Word 2007. As such I must load my dotm file, switch to developer/visual basic (ALT F11), selected references, locate the .tlb file and add it. This all works fine as does the .net code The problem occurs (occasionally) as I make changes to the .net code. Sometimes when I initiate the Word process, I will get a dialog box "could not open macro storage". When I start Word, load the .dotm file, ALT F11 to open VBA and check references, I notice the .net project I am using is listed as missing. It still has a check beside it. I uncheck to project, close references, open references again, locate the project name (it is still in the available refernces - just un checked), recheck the project, save and close the .dotm, I am once again able to use word as expected with the addin functioning correctly This does not happen every time I change the project code. I often transfer the solution and develop on other computers then transfer to solution back to the original development computer. This effort always requires the dropping of the project and then locate anc check it in VBA. I expect this project to be in use for at least 5 years with many changes to the code. I have worked out a deployment scheme that will auto deploy and install the project as users login. The requirment to reload the reference in VBA will be a problem. Is there a registry change that I can record and push back during deployment? Where is the information aboout loaded refences in VBA for Word maintained? How can I inform Word (in an automated way) that the refernce to the .tlb file is valid? Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105051

    - Userform Coding Problem that I need help with! I'm hoping that someone can help me figure out a coding problem that I SCREWED UP. I had this code in my Microsoft Word VB Editor that you see below. The code worked PERFECTLY until I stupidly tried to edit it without first making a backup. I know, first rule of any work is to make a backup, so I can't believe I forgot to do that. As an FYI, the "code" contained below was interfacing with one of my Excel Workbooks, and allowed me to chose a client name from a dropdown menu (in Excel), and when the name was chosen, Excel would call up a "Word", and the Userform that was created would also open. This would then allow me to input narrative comments into the Userform. As a result of my "editing", I can select a client name (on the Excel Workbook), but "Word" and "The Userform" no longer opens (actually it looks as if it is trying to open, but cannot). If some kind and knowledge person could look at the code below and let me know if you see anything that I am leaving out I'd greatly appreciate it. Dan The Code in the MS Word Sample.doc VB Editor Module Sub UpdateComments(parm1) On Error Resume Next Documents.Open FileName:=parm1 If Not FileExists(parm1) Then ' Check if file/folder exists ..... MsgBox "File " & parm1 & " does not exist", vbOKCancel Exit Sub End If UserForm1.Show vbModeless End Sub _____________________________________________________________________ Function FileExists(fname) As Boolean ' Returns TRUE if the file exists Dim x As String x = Dir(fname) If x <> "" Then FileExists = True _ Else FileExists = False End Function Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105048

    - IF Field breaking bullets Hello, i'm have having a problem in Word 2003 for PC. When I create an IF field as part of a bulleted list, the indent is correct but the bullet is removed. The problem seems to be caused by the carriage return in the result of the IF field. this causes the bullet to be removed on whichever line the field is placed. A few examples follow (? is the bullet point): EXAMPLE 1 ï?§ Bullet 1 { IF "T" = "T" "Bullet 2" "Bullet 3 ï?§ Bullet 4" } ï?§ Bullet 5 Bullet 2,3 and 4 are being inserted by an IF Field and if the condition is true then Bullet 2 is inserted, otherwise Bullet 3 and 4 are inserted. RESULT 1 ï?§ Bullet 1 Bullet 2 ï?§ Bullet 5 however, the problem is that the bullet point for Bullet 2 is removed. EXAMPLE 2 ï?§ Bullet 1 { IF "T" = "F" "Bullet 2" "Bullet 3 ï?§ Bullet 4" } ï?§ Bullet 5 notice that the IF field should display Bullet 3 and 4 now RESULT 2 ï?§ Bullet 1 Bullet 3 ï?§ Bullet 4 ï?§ Bullet 5 in this case Bullet 4 was inserted correctly. but again no bullet for the first one. the perplexing case is when the IF conditional field is inserted after Bullet 1. EXAMPLE 3 ï?§ Bullet 1{ IF "T" = "T" " Bullet 2" " Bullet 3 ï?§ Bullet 4" } ï?§ Bullet 5 this should insert a hard return before Bullet 2. this results in: RESULT 3 Bullet 1 ï?§ Bullet 2 ï?§ Bullet 5 any help would be appreciated Andre' Tag: opening word template like memo Tag: 105043

If you want to edit the template, display the Open dialog box (for example by
pressing Ctrl+O) and then locate the template. Click Open. Make the desired
edits, save and close the file.

If you want to create a document from the template, click the Office button,
and then click New. If you cannot find the desired template, try running
Office Setup, and install the template. Alternatively, search for the
template at
