I have created an application in VB.net 2010, I have an SQL database that I want to gram some data from: Then Create a word document with that data and save it to a given location, this is what I got so far.
Process.Start("Outlook.exe")
Dim oApp As Outlook.Application
Dim oEmail As Outlook.MailItem
[Code].....
This gets the file and attaches it to an email. I have created another button that is called CreateReport_btn when this is clicked I want to get the last data from the sql database and insert it into a word document.

I have an application which produces a 2 page report which also has tables in it.What I needed to know is whether you guys can provide a link or some helpful code, by which I can export these pages to MS word file. The word file should be in editable format after export.
View 2 RepliesI am generating report in word(i.e) I am exporting all the data from the database and replacing it in with the placeholder in the word document. While the data is being retrieved from the database if the data contains any enter or new line character it retrieves it with the boxes and hence it replaces the string in the word with boxes such as for eg. abc and then box icon and then xyz on other line for abc...xyz text.how can i eliminate the box icon and still display the data as above? I have tried replacing the character using chr(11), chr(13), system.newline etc but the box icon still exists? Is there any other way i can perform the above task?
View 1 RepliesThe application I support is creating an amalgamted Word document by copying couple of Word documents in one document right after each other. The problem is the format of the some of the fields of the document that gets appended is changed in amalgamated document while the amalgamated document is the copy of AppendDocument (imagine if we have one document to copy in the amalgamated document)

I am currently looking to replace our reporting engine, hoping to gain some speed. We are now using the Word automation, which works terribly slow when formatting tables. The big plus however is that it produces a .doc/docx file which is editable in Word. Also, it supports rich content.
So I was looking at Component One's C1Report, which is very fast. It can export to docx and does that equally fast. The problem is that some of the rich content, such as images, is lost or molested when exporting to docx.
I want to use microsoft word in vb 2008 to print the report. I code it but i will do some other task but i do not know how? The code as follows

View 3 RepliesSo I had a report I needed to create and needed to get the total users per job for a system that I was not (and still am not) very familiar with. I asked the developer for that system for the code and was told it was no easy task. He sent me a query that didn't look anything like a user count. I told him I needed something to get all the users for each and every job in order to put it in the report I was building for one of the clients. I was told that wouldn't really work. I looked at his code as it worked on a per job basis.
The following is an example of the "logic" used to get the user count per job in asp.net:
TRUNCATE TABLE1
INSERT username INTO TABLE1 FROM QUERY1 WHERE CRITERIA MET AND job = *passedinjob
INSERT username INTO TABLE1 FROM QUERY2 WHERE CRITERIA MET AND job = *passedinjob AND username NOT IN TABLE1
SELECT username FROM TABLE1 and put in a dataset
[Code] .....
There were no UNION statements in the query1 or query2, there was no select count(*) from table, there was no recordset.count..

What would be the best approach for creating MS Word 2007 documents with vb.net that contains signature lines? I am currently in the planning phase of a project and I'm trying to gather some info. The idea would be to upgrade this program we have already developed(using vb.net) to generate .docx files that contain signature lines that are created progmatically. The signatures would be added later by the user through a workflow in SharePoint I just need to create the document with the lines. I have seen different tutorials on creating word docs, but not sure which method would be the best for what I'm doing. Where should I start looking?
Also, there doesnt seem to be too many tutorials on adding signatures line through code, more specifically how to automate the signature line setup. e.g. Who should sign, signers name, signers email address. How do I set these paramaters through code?
I am generating tables and writing them to word on the fly. I do not know how many tables there will be each time i write the data to word and the problem I am having is the second table is written inside the first cell of my first table. If there was a third table it is put inside the first cell of my second table.Is there a way to move the cursor out of the table? I have tried creating a new range with each table also but the same thing happens.I have also tried things like tbl.Range.InsertParagraphAfter()The closest I came was using the Relocate method, but this only worked for two tables.

Here at my company we have an Access application that allows users to create documents based on invoices that are in Great Plains, an accounting program. Documents such as invoices, packing lists, export documentation, etc., etc.This application is very old and very hard to maintain so we're doing a rewrite and I've chosen this project to be my first Visual Basic .NET project.Basically what the application is going to do is allow users to do the following:
Pull up invoice information and then add some secondary information such as comments and the like Choose which documents they want to print out Open the documents and then allow the user to edit the documents That last part is the tricky part. The users right now create these documents out of Access and print to a PDF and then edit the PDF with comments that can be specific to the document and customer. If they didn't have to do that, then I could just used canned reports or something.
What I am thinking of doing is creating Word templates with text boxes and inside those text boxes adding addressable bookmarks. When the user goes to print the documents, open Word, populate the bookmarks from the database (SQL Server) and then that will let them draw text boxes and fill them with whatever they want before they print the documents and then they can save them.
Here's the code I worked out to do this (of course the final result will be much more complex):
Public Const wdPageBreak = 7

Dim oDoc As Word.Document
