.net - Word Automation : Could Not Open Macro Storage
Mar 7, 2012
My application (vb.net windows application deployed via ClickOnce) uses Word to open and fill .dot templates to create new Word documents. I reference Microsoft Word 14 Object Library and uses this code :
Dim oWord As Word.Application = Nothing
Dim oDoc As Word.Document = Nothing
Try
[code]....
On the last line I receive "could not open macro storage" error on deployed machines (not on my development machine).I develop with Windows 7 - Office 2010 - VS 2010 (.Net 3.5). My deployment machine is also a Windows 7 with Office 2010 installed.I tried to remove normal.dotm (I found some links advicing it) without success. The .dot template used contains no macro.

I have a program that at one point will open word and export some info. That works perfect, however I have just noticed each day I have a number of winwords open (can only see them in task manager so they are hidden). It appears that everytime I start the program it opens a hidden winword session. It has nothing to do with the code I have on the form, it opens before any code I have written is executed.

I have used Visual Studio 2008 (VB) to create a custom tab and button group with custom buttons. When any of those buttons are clicked, I simply want to run a macro (add-in) that will already be loaded when Excel is launched. The main examples I've seen create an Excel object in the VB code and then call the macro, but that seems like unnecessary overhead, since the custom buttons are are already loaded into Excel.

I have a VB.net application that gets data off our server with ODBC and populates and saves a Word Document. When I try to deploy it to another computer it will get the data just fine and populate the first document, but it will crash before saving it. I've installed the .net framework 4.0, Microsoft Data Access Components, and the Microsoft ODBC .net data Provider. The error code is 0xC0000005, which is from what I can see is called an "Access Violation Exception." It works fine on my computer.

I have a Word macro that I want to run under Word 2003 and Word 2007. I would like to know if there is a way to check which version of Word is being used so that I can call different subroutines in the macro. Does anyone know how?

I would like to use Windows Scheduled Tasks to have a Word 2003 macro run automatically every week.I have automated an Excel 2003 macro by using Windows Scheduled Tasks and the Workbook_open event and was hoping to find somethings comparable to automated execution of the Word macro.I then start Excel by running a .BAT file from Windows Scheduled Tasks which in turn executes the workbook.xls file created above whic starts Excel, and runs whatever routines I called in the above .xls macro.

I need some help regarding writing a macro to copy a particular paragraph from an active document. The criteria for copying is based on a particular word in a paragraph. The macro should scan the entire document and then copy and paste all the paragraphs that have that particular world. Kindly guide me in this.

I am trying figure out something new, I can add a schema to a word 2007 doc and place the elements at diff locations. In my VB project with automation can I fill the elements. I can fill fields/content controls/story ranges just fine, but how does XML fit it to this? Or have I got it all mixed up??? Not asking for code just yet, just seeing if this is a correct approach.

how should I proceed -- with a VB UserForm (eg upon clicking successively a Form Button) -- in order to have a [TextBox.Text] contain (in other words: to have a TextBox show), say, one sentence at a time, text obtained from a MS Word document.Then, also, since it is also essential to my ambitions: can I have all the functionalities of my twenty or so existing word macros (triggered each in Word itself by its corresponding shortcut) available for use in said Form's TextBox? Just as an example, I have macros to simply toggle words between singular and plural or that invert the relative positions of two words, while others are 100 lines long and do searches in another Word document containing glossary entries using bookmarks.I searched the Web for hours on end to get a foothold on this issue to no avail until someone finally hinted at "automation". Then a wealth of info surfaced, but so far I only managed to get as far as this:
Dim msword As Object
msword = CreateObject("Word.Application")
msword.Visible = True
Dim wordDoc As Object
wordDoc = msword.Documents.Open("C:\tests\mydoc.doc")
and, yes, I added references to Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library and to Microsoft Word 11.0 Object Library to my project. I am using Microsoft VB 2010 Express.
What happens is this: When this code runs, first I get a message saying the file is "locked for edition" (or something similar, for mine is a Portuguese version of Word) because it is being use by another user (myself). How should I overcome this hurdle. Then, never minding this initial problem, the dialog box message error offers my the chance of opening a copy as read only. I accept this option and the Word document opens beautifully.But after many trials and only errors, I still don't know how to code so as to get, for example, the first sentence of the document in my TextBox. And, again, will I be able to run my Word macros in the TextBox?
I tried for example:
Selection.MoveRight(Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend)
and
wordDoc.Selection.MoveRight(Unit:=wdSentence, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend)
but they get blue/and/red underlined (illegal)Are Word VBA declarations per se not valid in VB? I have many more hurdles on the way I wish to such as (1) what tricks could I use so as no to loose original formatting when I finally learn how to get the sentences shown in the TextBox and subsequently paste them back into the Word document and (2) populating a ListBox with the content of a database record.

1- You can see I put (false) for both Bold and Underline, but still I have them returned ....?
2- How can I make them in bullet points since as you see here I did it manually.

Word has insufficient memory in my program and I am trying to find out why. My script works great and now it is not working. I am getting the error, "Word has insufficient memory. You will not be able to undo this action once it is completed. Do you want to continue?" The code that breaks it is:
wordApp.Selection.Font.Bold = 1;
wordApp.Selection.TypeText("var text here: ");
wordApp.Selection.Font.Bold = 0;

I've got a Word Addin in VB.net and VSTO that exposes a COM compatible object via Word.COMAddins.Object, so that the addin functionality can be called External to Word, without accesses to Word itself being cross-process.The technique worked in VB6, but with VB.net, it still works, but it's much slower than the same code running directly from the addin via a task pane, as if the calls are all cross process when they shouldn't be.Anyone who's ever done Word automation knows that code that runs perfectly acceptably INPROC with Word (in this case the instance of the ADDIN that Word itself loads), will generally run unacceptably slowly out of process (or cross process).[code]And slow as in a factor of about 10 to 1; what takes 3 seconds to run when run directly from the ADDIN via the task pane, takes ~30seconds to run when called from external code through the COMADDIN.object object. I'm guessing that I'm running into some sort of issue with .net APPDOMAINS or something and what +really+ constitutes cross proc calls in .net, but I've found nothing so far that would even hint about this sort of thing.My next step, barring some mystical insight, will be to code up a repro, which could get tricky because of the shear number of elements in play.

When I execute the code provided, Word 2010 opens and appears visible and then stops with an error: "COMException was unhandled". But if I execute the code line by line (F8), the code runs perfectly, that is Word 2010 opens, it is visible and the template is opened. The error fails (always) on the third line of code. What is going on and how might I fix it? [Code]

I would like to create customized Actions Pane for MS Word.First I would like to start with Word 2003 and then continue to Word 2007 and 2010.I work with VS 2005.As far as I understand, the Actions Pane can be distributed as part of the specific document that was created in VSTO. However I would like to create application-wise Actions Pane.I thought about windows form application. When it is activated, it adds customized Action Pane to all open Word documents.

I'm working on and add-in for Word 2003 that creates a custom toolbar when the add-in is loaded. However, most of the users will open documents through a file management system that uses automation to open the documents. I tried using the GetObject function to grab the instance of Word created through the automation but the toolbar isn't made visible (it only sits in the background and the users have to manually make the toolbar visible).
Code:
Public Sub createToolbar()
On Error GoTo ErrorLocator

Using VB2008 on a W7 system equipped with Office 2010, I added a reference to Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word (The Office12 version, not sure if this is OK). Then I have the following code:
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim WordApp As Word.Application
[code]....
But all I keep getting is an exception on the CreateObject line indicating "Cannot create ActiveX component". I don't think it likes the "Word.Application" statement for some reason. Is this because I'm using Word2010?

I then need to search in "Export Report" in column A, but unknown row for the word 'Definitions' and then once found I have to copy 'Definitions' and 10 rows belows it, to the sheet called "Definitions"
How can I achieve this? At the moment I am stuck at the point of finding the word 'Definitions'. I get error Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A9C64 at this line:
LastRow = xlApp.Workbooks(1).Worksheets("Export Report").Cells(xlApp.Workbooks(1).Worksheets("Export Report").rows.count, "A").end(Excel.XlDirection.xlUp).row + 1
