Office Automation :: Setting The Word Printer To Use Without Changing The System Default
Dec 6, 2009
My objective: Set the printer to use without changing the default in Word under the control of vb.net express 08. Word version is 2000
I have it working, but� Through a lot of trying, I discovered that the WordBasic line would work. Further exploration revealed the �with dialogs(13)� will work. In a Word macro it would be Dialogs(wdFilePrintSetup) or Dialogs(97)
This is where it gets interesting. While Word.WdWordDialog.wdDialogFilePrintSetup equals to 97 it doesn�t activate the correct dialog. After considerable trying, I found that index 13 does yield the correct dialog box.

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?

Company's software: MS Access User Interface and SQL Server backend. Visual Studio VB Express Edition.
I received an assignment to automatically update the job status in a drop down list from "In Progress" to "Finished" after the 3D printer has printed succesfully and "Crashed" if not successfully.
I was thinking to do the following:

I have a label printer with the driver loaded with the settings in the driver set I can print the exact label that I want, I have the problem that I need to set the default settings in the driver when the software starts. there are 6 of these printers and the only problem we have found is that different operators like to change the settings.
What I need to do is to set the following commands in the driver so each time the system is started (daily) it loads the settings and works properly.
I need to set
Custom Commands Text, Start, Parsed Text
In the Advanced Setup, turn on use printer settings
Other settings would be usfull but as I cannot set these I do not think I will be able to set others.
I can currently set some of the commands eg,
DefaultPageSettings.PrinterSettings.Copies=2

I learned somewhere that it is a good idea to set Calculation mode to manual in the beginning of an Excel Automation in order to speed up execution. [code] I cannot tell, from the documentation I have seen, how to get any clue what this exception is about. Does anyone know what the issue is?

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: ");

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 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 have a WebBrowser control in a VB.NET WinForms app. I am able to set the default printer from code and print without prompting the user. However, there is also a print button that shows the PrintDialog. If this action is done first the page will print.Then if I try to programmatically print later (again setting the default printer to some other printer) the it will print to the last printer selected in the PrintDialog box even though I am resetting the default and see the default printer being changed in Windows.It works fine unless ShowPrintDialog has a printer chosen first. Once that occurs it seems to always use that printer no matter what I do.

If strPrinter.Contains("My Printer") Then

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 haven't gotten to the part of inserting into excel yet.I am trying to figure out how to check for password protected. I don't want to have to open each file separately.I am currently testing with excel, in a test directory i have one password protected xls and the other one is open. 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.

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.

It appears that when one creates an instance of Excel, using CreateObject, (Late binding), the suggested Excel closing function (with GC.collect etc) does not work. I have tried several suggestions, and the only one that works is process.kill method. Do you see any problem in using this? BTW: the reason we are using late binding is that we cannot use Office PIAs....not sure which version of Office would be installed on the client site. We work with O2003, but the client might still be at 2000 or 2002.
