    - Section Break Changes on File Insert with Global Template Iâ??ve created a few functions and procedures in a template loaded via options/file locations/start up to enable users in a workgroup to insert letterheads and footers to new or pre-existing documents. The letterheads and footers are stored in individual templates (though Iâ??ve also tested with plain .doc). In each of the templates, a continuous section break follows each of the letterheads. The purpose of the section break is to preserve the formatting of the destination document, since the letterheads are fairly wide, and I donâ??. Version of Word is 2003. While I was in the startup-to-be template, I created and tested the functions and procedures to make all this happen. No problems. When I saved it to the start up directory and restarted word to load from it, I ran into a problem. When a letterhead is inserted now, the section break is no longer continuous but causes a page break. Iâ??ve tried this a few different ways, but the end result is always the same. Hereâ??s a look: Select Case intMethod Case 1 ' FIELD EMPTY Dim strIncludeText As String strIncludeText = Replace(PathToTemplates, "\", "\\") & strLetterhead strIncludeText = "INCLUDETEXT """ & strIncludeText & """" & " bmkLetterhead" Selection.Fields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Type:=wdFieldEmpty, _ Text:=strIncludeText, PreserveFormatting:=True Case 2 ' FIELD: INCLUDE TEXT Dim strIncludeText As String strIncludeText = Replace(PathToTemplates, "\", "\\") & strLetterhead strIncludeText = """" & strIncludeText & """" & " bmkLetterhead" Selection.Fields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Type:=wdFieldIncludeText, _ Text:=strIncludeText, PreserveFormatting:=True Case 3 ' INSERT FILE: Linked Selection.InsertFile FileName:=strLetterhead, Range:="bmkLetterhead", Link:=True Case 4 ' INSERT FILE: Not Linked Selection.InsertFile FileName:=strLetterhead, Range:="bmkLetterhead", Link:=False Case 5 ' COPY & PASTE Documents.Open FileName:=strLetterhead, ConfirmConversions:=False, _ ReadOnly:=True, AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", _ PasswordTemplate:="", Revert:=False, WritePasswordDocument:="", _ WritePasswordTemplate:="", Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, XMLTransform:="", _ Visible:=False Documents(strLetterhead).Bookmarks("bmkLetterhead").Select Selection.Copy Documents(strLetterhead).Close False Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault) End Select One other thing that I tried was inserting the section break before inserting the document. That also didnâ??t work. Hereâ??s the code: Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdSectionBreakContinuous Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory My requirement is to actually insert the letterhead rather than link to it, but I tried these other methods as alternatives hoping that one would work. Any ideas what is causing this or how I can work around it? Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 68004

    - Cannot programmatically insert code on document from form I am trying to insert a button onto the document from a click event a button on a user form.

    - Why Version modified internally on Each modification in the Master Document? hi! Why the Version is modified internally on Each modification in the Actuall Document. I am doing the following Steps: 1: Create a new document named MyDoc.doc. 2: Save a Version named "ver1" into the MyDoc.doc. 3: Open Version "ver1". 4: Save this version at some place i.e. V1-1.doc. 5: Again open Version "ver1". 6: Save this version at some place i.e. V1-2.doc. 7: Compare both saved Version files using WinDiff.exe utility which shows a difference in both files. I have also tested the above procedure programmatically by setting the RemoveDateAndTime property to TRUE before saving the versions but the difference is still there.

    - Need help accessing BuiltInDocumentProperties from C# I have a series of tasks to perform, some of which involve working with Word using the COM interface from C#.NET. I have one problem I have not solved yet: How to access individual elements of the BuiltInDocumentProperties in a document. BuiltInDocumentProperties is defined as an abstract object according to the COM object browser. But I have not yet found what concrete objects are derived from this, or how to access them from C#. From VBA or vbScript it is pretty straight forward: (vbScript) docTitle = doc.Builtindocumentproperties (wdTitleField) Where wdTitleField is a constant defined in the script file. However, in C# this won't compile. Any ideas will be most appreciated. Jason For example, I need to get the Title field. Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67978

    - How to determine cursor position within a document I have to create a document which is divided into "chapters". Each of these "chapters" starts with a numbered style - say SpecialH1 and therefore occurs once only in each chapter. Within each chapter the user can add sections at random and as many as needed if they require to turn pages landscape for maps, diagrams and the like. If the user is in "chapter" 2 I can allow him to add a new chapter before the existing chapter 2 (which then becomes chapter 3). However, if the user's cursor is anywhere within chapter one, irrespective of the number of sections it may contain I must prevent them from adding a new chapter ***before*** chapter 1. At present I'm using the following to tell me in which section the cursor is in: thisSection = Selection.Information(wdActiveEndSectionNumber) This works OK provided there are a finite number of sections within chapter 1 and by manipulating the information I can prevent users from inserting a chapter before number 1. The problem arises when the sections within chapter 1 are varied, perhaps 2 or 4 or whatever. Is there a way, perhaps, of selecting the numbered style at the top of each chapter and identifying at which number it is? If it was at 1 then prevent user from adding another one before it. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please? My head is going into "fuzzy mode" trying to identify the way around this! Regards Roderick Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67971

    - Load and Use Classes from another template Hi Group I'm in the process of building a bunch of templates for various use (report, fax, memo...). Once finished, the templates will be distributed through local network shares to my co-workers. Now the different templates have many things that they have in common (e.g. phone number, address etc.), which I would like to store in a central place. Also, I'd need some macros in all of the templates, which I would like to store in a central place, too. I have thought about using a reference in C:\Documents and Settings\...\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP that points to a resource .dot file on the network. That file can now hold all the stuff that needs to be centralized. So far the resource template gets properly loaded on startup of word, but I'm unable (or don't know how) to access the information within (through VBA code in the document template, say on document_new). So, these are my questions: 1) Is this whole stuff a good idea or should I drop it and "hard-code" the information into each template? 2) How can I access those classes from within the document template's VBA code? Any help greatly appreciated! Thx, Bernhard Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67961

    - Word Object model does not recognize ".," dot followed by comma Hi, I am trying to read ThisDocument.Range.Sentences, to process all the sentences in a document.

For example, Thank you for contacting ABC &Co., and we hope that our association will be mutually profitable and beneficial. Now when I read the sentences, I find that "," and ", and we hope that our association will be mutually profitable and beneficial." are returned as the two sentences contained.

    - adding caption to a photo I have a bunch of .htm files created by Word with embedded pictures (photos - inserted as picture from file). These photos are set to square wrap and left justified. I'm working on a macro that will let me add a comment below each photo and leave it in a square wrap, left justified in the same original position. I have this macro mostly completed but a couple things don't work quite right so I would be interested if someone has any insight. First, I created a transparent text box and aligned it so that it was centered just under the picture. This works fine but as soon as I group the picture and text box, the text box gets shifted from just below the photo to the center of the picture, messing up my careful alignment. Next, the act of grouping the picture and text box also undoes the square wrap of the original photo. So I was hoping that I could restore the original setup by re-setting a square wrap along with the top and left values of the photo/text group to that of the original photo. Unfortunately, while this almost gets it right, it appears that this shifts the final result to the beginning of the paragraph whereas the original picture was inserted somewhere inside the paragraph. Attached is the script using Word 2003.

    - Auto install button at startup - different computers - same user? Hi Folks, I have a little program that I have written and send to various users on my network. The program is installed by the user by running a batch file that I attached to an email - the batch file installs the various .dot files in the users /templates/ menu. All good so far. The batch file also copies a file to the users /Application Data/word/startup menu to install the button automatically when word is started up. Now here the problem : we have heaps of computers at work and more often than not a user will log on to a different computer each time - the startup folder is specific to each machine their fore it means the user must run the batch file for each different computer that they use - a real pain in the ass. I see one possible solution - howabout including in the batch file a file that copies another batch file to the /Documents & Settings/All Users/Startup folder - this second batch file copies the word file that installs the button everytime a user logs on?

    - ActivePrinter not working in macro. We've got an application that invokes Word, executes a macro, does a merge with data pulled from a text file extracted from a database, etc, and then prints the merged document to a specific printer. For years we've been having to manually set the Windows default printer on the workstations to use the specific printer that's needed because even though the macro has the command: ActivePrinter = "SPECPRINT" this printer never gets used unless it is the default for the user session upon the workstation before the macro ever gets run. The SPECPRINT printer is defined upon each workstation and is an LPR network printer which prints to a special print queue hostsed on a unix system which "broadcasts" the print jobs out to about half a dozen HP laserjet printers scattered about our network. We'd like to get away from having to make the SPECPRINT printer be the default printer on all the workstations becuase the users are continually forgetting to manually pick another printer whenever they print ordinary print jobs, and inadvertantly broadcast out those jobs to all the special broadcast printers and waste a lot of paper. The problem is that the "ActivePrinter" setting in the macro is getting ignored and it doesn't seem to matter what value it's set to... the print output just always goes to whatever the default printer is set to. Is this a common issue with ActivePrinter? Is there a better way to programatically direct the output to a specific print queue? Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67915

    - Can I use a macro to break up doc into separate files? Hi All, I have a long document (a user's manual) that I want to break up into a number of separate HTML files.

If a Heading 2 exists, I want to select all the text from it to the next Heading 2, or Heading one if there isn't another one. Once the text is selected, I want to save it to an HTML file, named whatever the Heading text is. I know my way around Visual Basic, but know mext to nothing about Word. Is what I want to do a reasonable thing? Is it possible that this has been done before, and some macro code is already out there somewhere? - Max Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67880

    - Adding a range object to a Mail Merge field Result Any assistence for the following problem will be most appreciated. I am writing a macro that takes codes and text from one document, called Structure.doc and inserts the text, and text associated with several codes [which are stored in tables in several other word documents] into an existing report. The codes are stored in a word document that contains 1 table with 2 columns. The first column hads the code, the second column has the text [which may include numbering, formating, tables etc] This macro works fine. However, in the Strucutre document, I need to be able to toggle the codes on and off where on displays just the codes, and off displays the full text assosated with the code, just as in the Mail Merge preview. However, as the codes are stored in several documents, and only certain codes from each document are selected, I do not think I can use the in-built Mail-merge function. My thought was to use a mail merge field that the user could enter the code in the field, and then use a macro to insert the field Result from the appropriate document. I found this will work if using the fields(i).Result.text except that tables and all the formating is lost. From my understanding, the fields(i).Result is a range object and so I should be able to insert a Selection.Range object into the fields(i).Result. However, whenever I use the code: ReportDoc.fields(i).Result = Selection.Range word crashes. Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong? If the above is not clear enough, let me know and I will try to reword. Thanks, Simon Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67878

    - Need Help With Wildcaed Search Hi, I have a table with alphabetic entries in it. I want to search the table for all entries beginning with a selected letter. I need to add a NOT to the search but I haven't been able to construct a string for the NOT. As an Example: Table ... Argentina Argentina - Buenos Aires ... So far I have <A{1} which seems to pick all the "A" entries. However, what do I add to the string so that the word "Aires" is NOT selected. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

    - find and copy all highlights of a particular color Hi all. I'm working with a long document in which "glossary" words have all been highlighted bright green. I would like to copy all of these words into a separate document so that I can create the glossary. I'm sure that Word has built-in features that would be a better choice for this task, but I have to remain within this particular scheme, so I'm just trying to make my job a little easier. I have an old WordBasic macro that finds all the occurences of a particular text string and appends them into a text document, one by one, but I can't quite figure out how to do the same in VBA and then modify the search, and I don't think WordBasic supports a search for a particular highlight color. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks. Rodney Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67863

    - Word 2003 XML documents as plain text (unicode) I write a macro to manipulate some tags in XML documents. In previous versions of MS Word it wasn't a problem to insert XML-documents automatically in plain text format. How can I either set the MS-Word defaults in order not to have XML documents opened as XML documents or alter the following code to have the files inserted as plain text (unicode) files? Selection.InsertFile FileName:= myfile$, Range:="", _ ConfirmConversions:=False, Link:=False, Attachment:=False (of course I want to avoid having to confirm each conversion manually) Any help is much appreciated.

    - Copy Textbox contents to clipboard Dear all, I do a lot of repetitive typing at work. I have a list of templates which I want handy around. I am thinking of having a word document with textboxes which are holding my different templates. I am hoping to have a button beside each textbox so that when I click it, it will automatically copy the textbox's contents to the clipboard. I can then paste these onto the software which I am doing data entry to. I have tried stuff like "textbox1.copy" but this does not work. Nothings goes onto the clipboard. What am I missing? Sorry this is my first attempt at programming, so to speak... anyone can help? Tag: suppress warning message? Tag: 67837

Hi,
I don't think there is a way to suppress a special warning
once and for all. Wouldn't be a good idea either.
You need a macro that does the printing.
For that macro you can avoid the message.

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.PrintOut _
...
