creating a word document by WordApplication with custom template

Hello everyone,

anyone could suggest me how I can create a new word document from a custom template authenticated by user/password with WordApplication not visible so I can update only two places automatically then saving in another folder and printing as PDF?.....

Thanks to all!
Ciao,
Luigi

Hello,

I use C++ Builder...

Then you should be in that application zone. I will move the question for you. I doubt if you're going to get any answers in the Word forum.

At least, anyone knows why if I write:

WordApplication->ActiveDocument->Shapes->AddTextEffect(msoTextEffect1, "text", "Arial Black", 1, msoFalse, msoFalse, 0, 0)

C++ Builder couldn't find a match?...

OK here I am... I did some investigations and tests around Word.Application....

I have a template .dot which has read-password and write-password... how I would set the wordapplication as here:

WordDoc = WordDocs.OleFunction("Add", OleVariant(path_of_template_name.dot,...)

to pass automatically passwords?....
If I do

WordDoc = WordDocs.OleFunction("Add", OleVariant(path_of_template_name.dot,false, 1);
then
WordDoc.OlePropertySet("PasswordTemplate") = passwordtemplate;
WordDoc.OlePropertySet("WritePasswordTemplate") = passwordtemplate;

indeed executing OleFunction(...), Word opens and asks me directly the password instead of executing OlePropertySet... how I can figure that out?...

Thanks
