Hi,

about 10 word, pdf documents i refer almost daily. Can i save the path of the documents to  microsoft edge or other browser like favorite so that i can open quickly? please advise

I am looking forward the position of the cursor with two information: which paragraph, inside which character.
Many thanks.

Hello,

I use a customized Outlook form that runs VB Script.  I have a command button that opens up a Word template and prints it to a PDF file.  What happens though is when printing, the save PDF dialog box comes up.  I don't want that.  I want it to save it as a PDF automatically without the dialog box coming up.  Let's just say C:\test.pdf.  Here's the code that I currently use.

Sub CommandButtonShipLabelUSPS_Click()

On Error Resume Next

Dim strCurrentPrinter' As String

	Set objDoc2 = GetWordDocLabel("\\TGPS13VM1\drawing$\Jobs\Task_Templates\Ship-Ship Label USPS.dot")
    	Call FillFieldsShipLabel(objDoc2)
    	objDoc2.Application.Options.PrintBackground = False
    	objDoc2.Application.DisplayAlerts = False

if Item.UserProperties("PrintHold") = True then
  	Set objDoc2 = Nothing
  	Set strCurrentPrinter = Nothing
  	Set objWord2 = Nothing
	Exit Sub
end if

    	strCurrentPrinter = objDoc2.Application.ActivePrinter ' store the current active printer
    	objDoc2.Application.ActivePrinter = "Adobe PDF" ' change to another printer

    	objDoc2.PrintOut ' print the active sheet
	Call RestoreActivePrinter

	objDoc2.Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    	objDoc2.Application.Options.PrintBackground = True

objDoc2.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges
objWord2.Quit wdDoNotSaveChanges

	Set objDoc2 = Nothing
  	Set strCurrentPrinter = Nothing
  	Set objWord2 = Nothing

End Sub

Select all Open in new window

Thank you,
Joel

I have a client who created a document is Word 2013. She made some changes to it, saved it and closed Word. She came back from lunch and opened the document. All of her text, images and everything is gone. The 8 page document is now 225 pages. I verified that show hidden text was checked, but nothing. I copied the document and opened it in WordPad and I can see all the text and images.

Any ideas?

I use VBA to create custom toolbars for MS Office applications.  For Word 2007, 2010, 2013, and 2016, I've always deployed global templates as a .dotm file in the user's AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP folder.  For Excel and PowerPoint, either .xlam or .ppam in the AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\AddIns folder.  

Clients are asking me whether these same tools can be made to work in Office 365 where the applications are cloud-based rather than installed on the local machine.

Do global templates and Add-ins work with the cloud-based versions of O365 applications?  Can they be deployed as-is, or do they require modification, or do they need to be recreated in an entirely new language?  Can anybody point me to some documentation on this topic?

Thanks

My client reported that his list of recent documents in Word 2016 disappeared after updating the Office software.  How does a person restore an earlier version of the recent document list?  Where is it located?

When we go to print to PDF a word document nearly everything prints fine.
There is a area of the right side of the page that has some border coloring that isn't following the pdf. I believe its shading.

We highlight a couple of values with green but they don't come through as shaded when we convert the word document to a PDF.
I have gone through and tried to adjust acrobat and word settings. But the document conversion still doesn't appear to be working.

Can the MS Word Merge field formula be calculated using OpenXML

Thanks

Greetings,
Can a formula used in MS word merge field be calculated using VBA

I have one MCQ's Based type exam word document paper. I have to make Presentation in which each question will carry one slide.

I search different methods to create PPT from Word document. But I need little more help that is there any quickest way that select only questions and format them Heading style 1 and then select only QUestions options like Bullets as Heading 2.

or any other quickest way or macro which can convert my word document to PPT and each question should be on one slide.

Im  attempting to consolidate 6 different forms into one. The content of the forms is not different apart from the title and the pricing for each form. I know how to insert check boxes into word, so I was thinking if there was a way to make a table with the various form names at the start of the form with check boxes, so that the user can check the desired box for the from, as the form was selected the pricing would change in the designated part of the paragraph along the form. The paragraph where the price will have to change will always be the same. also if more than one box is checked (which is possible as this is for a service) then i would like the figure that comes out to be the sum of the prices for the forms selected. I would like to do this without having to have a list of the different prices displayed on the form, it can be hidden or else where in the program.  

I have a good base knowledge for Office, but have never encountered how i would go about doing this in Word. i know how i would do this in Excel, dont know if that helps.

Thanks in advance!

Good Morning,

Yesterday I posted a question about saving file locations within Word VBA, I was very kindly pointed in the right direction SaveSetting \ GetSetting however when I tried the suggested code it didn't work and my knowledge is limited - so I am not even sure if it possible hence posting again

I want to use GetSetting to capture the ActiveDocument.name, ActiveDocument.Path and then pull that info back into a variable so I can use it at a later date but I get "Run Time Error 5 - Invalid Procedure Call or Argument" at the line that read StrPath = GetSetting("CMS", "File Locations", strFileName, "Not found")

The code with Comments at bottom of post is what I am trying to achieve, the code is totally wrong but might help

Sub TestSave2()
'
' TestSave2 Macro
'
'
Dim StrPath As Variant
SaveSetting "CMS", "File Locations", ActiveDocument.name, ActiveDocument.Path
StrPath = GetSetting("CMS", "File Locations", strFileName, "Not found")
ChangeFileOpenDirectory _
"File Locations"
            ActiveDocument.SaveAs2 FileName:= _
        "CMS", FileFormat:=wdFormatXMLDocument, LockComments:=False, Password:="", _
End Sub

This code with Comments is what I am trying to achieve, the code is totally wrong but might help

Dim DocName As Variant
Dim File_Locations As Variant
SaveSetting "CMS", ActiveDocument.name ' I want to Save the Document Name
SaveSetting "File_Locations", ActiveDocument.Path ' I want to Save the FileLocation
…

Good Morning Experts,

This is the situation

We use a case management system to produce word files, they are created and a initial save done back to the server when the users has finished and closes the document it saves again and then save into the CMS.

What I want to know is this - when it first saves can I store the directory location into VBA and use it to save document back at later date.

For example

1.) User creates a letter in CMS and it opened in word and saves to \\server\location\123.docx
2.) I want to record or save \\server\location\123.docx somewhere
3.) I then want to save the document locally on the C:\Drive with the same name
4.) when uses is finished I want to save back to \\server\location with the original file name

At the moment ifI change the file location to local and then exit back to CMS - CMS doesn't reflect the changes.

I've a reason  want to try and achieve this, but not sure if it even possible?

Let me know points up for grabs
