Office Automation :: Opening Word 2010 Document?
Nov 23, 2010
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've made Add-in for Word 2007 in VS2005.It worked well with Word 2007 and now it works well with Word 2010 32 bit.However it doesn't work with Word 2010 64 bit. The installation is successful, but the ribbon button doesn't show up.
Do you have any experience with add-ins for Office 64 bit?

I have created a picturebox in a form that I want to click on and then it would send me to a excel file that I already have created. I don't know if it is even possible. Do I need to use a button instead?, or am I just way off all together.

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.

We are opening a Word document from our Visual Basic 2010 application using the Word object. When we run our application under Windows Server 2008 the document name is truncated in the main window title for the document. This is not the case when we run our application under Windows XP. Is there a way to prevent this truncation under Windows Server 2008?Mary Leathem

I've created a shared add-in for Office that adds a button to Office application.
If I am using the button to show a message, it works good:
Code:
Sub settingsPressed(ByVal control As Office.IRibbonControl)
MessageBox.Show("Hello")
End Sub
But I am not able to use it for opening Windows form:
Code:
Sub settingsPressed(ByVal control As Office.IRibbonControl)
frmSettings.Show()
End Sub
The .Show() command is not available and is not proposed by intellisense.
Of course I've added a reference to System.Windows.Forms

I have an app that uses ADO to read through an Excel document. The program ran great on XP-64, but now I'm on Windows 7-64.I've been reading all kinds of stuff on this, turning on IIS, and other things. All my settings seem to confirm a correct setup.

I am currently using the following code to print a word document[code]...
However I have found it to be buggy with our shared printers, this bug only happens when printing using word. It works fine when doing print automation with PDFs(Adobe Reader) etc.
What I am looking for is some code in vb.net which will allow me print this documents and I have to be about to specify the printer it uses.

Here is my code:

ServiceCompanyList = oDoc.Content.Paragraphs.Add
ServiceCompanyList.Range.Text = vbTab & "- " & "Perforation" & vbTab & vbTab & =
And here is what I get:
I Have two questions:
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 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

I have a excel report with one sheet called "Export Report". I then add 4 more sheets and rename them accordingly.
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

I am looking for a way of automating the generation of a text document which includes a table and an image. My client has requested, however, that it be in Open Office format. I have played around with AODL for a while and have been able to create a file with the text within the table but some things are still bugging me.One such thing is column width. Another one is aligning an image.I find the problem with AODL is that it is not very intuitive to use and there are not so many examples available.

I am not an expert programmer and am just getting familiar with .NET office automation. I have two questions:
1. For me to create word documents from my code on a server, does word have to be installed on the server? My test server does not have word installed. Is there a way to have the code open word on the user's machine in this case?
2. I am trying out some code for creating word documents. It works fine on my machine. However, when I try to run it on server it gives me an error.. "Cannot create ActiveX component." Is this a permissions issue or related to the fact that the server does not have word installed?

is there a way to extract all the text from a Word Document in VB.NET without actually openning the file? I'm asking since it is a very time and memory consuming operation to open a word document, select all, assign it to a variable and the close the file.I have a routine the opens all emails in a mailbox and analyses the body and subject object for regular expressions. I would like to do the same for the attachment, if it's in Word. if it's not possible to extract without openning the file, can anyone give me the best way to do it so that the routine doesn't destroy my server memorywise?

I've searched for this everywhere, but can't find a solution after trying for two days. What I want to accomplish is creating a table in Word (n-rows, and 3 cols,) (which I successfully have) and for each row that has a new date, I want to merge all three column cells just for that one row with the date. For every other row, above and below, I still want to preserve the 3 columns structure. What happens with the Merge() method is that all the rows merge, not just the row I'm currently on. I did a macro and noticed that there is a Selection.MoveRight() option I can do, but I can't yet figure out how to put all these statements together to accomplish this. When I do the MoveRight, trying many variants like the following:
oDoc.ActiveWindow.Selection.Tables(1).Range.Cells(wordRowIdx).Select()
oDoc.ActiveWindow.Selection.MoveRight(12)
I get a member cannot be found for the first statement.

I have successfully managed to encrypt .txt files with no problem, using RijndaelManaged. Now I need to encrypt/decrypt word documents, however when I try to encrypt a .doc/.docx the decryption goes south and when I open the decrypted file it shows a bunch of gibberish.

oDoc = oWord.Documents.Open(My.Settings.DocPath & "Letter.doc")
HOWEVER, whenever the debugger hits this line, it simply quits. No the application doesnt quit, no it does not hit the finally, end try or End Sub...it simply quits the sub. Actually, I think it causes the app to freeze but hard to tell because it happens in a dialogue form and this causes the dialogue form to bypass its close statement!

When i run my app both of them give me the message that they are password protected.I am not trying to crack password here...i am trying to enter the file names of the password protected xls and then remove them from the directory.
