The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Using Word Styles in VB.NET program with late binding

Asked by paix120 in Microsoft Office Suite, .NET, Microsoft Word

Tags: ,

I am creating a VB.NET program that exports a Word document. I've been told that I should use late binding to have a better chance of the code being compatible with various Word versions. My current trouble is with styles. I can export text in both Word 2002/XP and Word 2007, but when I try to implement styles, i get several errors.

Right now, I have these declarations

    Dim myWordDoc As Object
    Dim myWordApp As Object
    Dim myHeaderStyle As Object

Then this in my constructor

        myWordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
        myWordDoc = CreateObject("Word.Document")
        myHeaderStyle = myWordDoc.Styles("Normal")

        myWordDoc = myWordApp.Documents.Add
        myWordApp.Visible = True

Then later,

                myWordApp.Selection.TypeParagraph()
                myWordApp.Selection.TypeParagraph()
                myWordApp.selection.style = myHeaderStyle
                myWordApp.Selection.TypeText(ModuleName)

I kind of guessed on the

        myHeaderStyle = myWordDoc.Styles("Normal")

line, but I guess it is working. I am getting an error on the .selection.style line that says:

        COMException was unhandled - 'Style' is not a by reference property.

So..... how do I deal with styles when using late binding?? Help!

Please let me know if I need to clarify more. Thanks in advance!
