Office Automation :: Word Table Merge Cells And MoveRight?
Feb 24, 2011
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 a Excel file and I want to write some code to adjust it. What I want like this: Each cell in column E, if E6 and E9 have the same value, ROW9 should become ROW7 (old ROW7 became ROW8), and then E6 and E7 merged.I knew how to merge cells but I didn't know how change the whole row.

experience on how to create an engine using C# (VB.NET is okay too) that is generic enough to handle most cases of MS Word text fields I need to fill with data I'm getting from a database? In short, I'm about to embark on this little Office automation excursion and I'm hoping a little bit of feedback here.

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've been aware for some time that the Cells() property is early bound but the Cells.Item() property is late bound. In VBA this all works seamlessly apart from the fact that we lose intellisense in the VBA IDE in the latter case:
Code:
'VBA code
Cells. '<---- we get intellisense
Cells(1). '<---- we do not get intellisense
However, in VB .Net with Option Strict On this means that we have an extra consideration in that we have to explicitly convert to an Excel.Range if we want to set the range reference to a range variable:
Code:
'VB .Net code
Option Strict On
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
'
'
'
Dim oApp As New Excel.Application
[Code] .....
I'm comfortable enough with this because I'm aware of it and it is trivial to handle by explicitly converting to an Excel.Range. We also had a pretty good discussion about the Cells property a little while back in the VBA board which looked at some of its inner workings. My question is to dig a little bit deeper into the way that this has been implemented. I'm trying to get a better understanding about the reasoning behind the Cells.Item() property returning an Object rather than a Excel.Range?

I'm having some difficulty merging multiple word documents together using Microsoft Office Interop Assemblies (Office 2007) and ASP.NET 3.5. I'm able to merge the documents, but some of my formatting is missing (namely the fonts and images).
My current merge code is shown below.
private void CombineDocuments() {
object wdPageBreak = 7;
object wdStory = 6;
[code]....
I don't care necessarily how this is accomplished. It could output via PDF if it had to. I just want the formatting to carry over.

Here is my code:
'Insert a paragraph at the beginning of the document.
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()

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 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 am selecting a directory and then I want to loop through the files and check which xls and which docs are password protected and drop their names into column A in excel. 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.

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.

Here is what we've been trying to do.
We have a button that loads up a form. It opens up a form and there is a Table. Its the history table. Well, the way this table is loaded is we run a function known as HistoryTableSelectSubset. Now, this has worked very fine! Not a problem.
This is our problem. We want three columns in this table. First, QueryDate (WORKS!). Second, SQL (WORKS!). Third, MYNEWCOLUMN (Fail). What we want in this third column is basically the SQL column but with it all word wrapped.
So, instead of seeing only the first line of the SQL on the table if it is written like this:

I am having trouble with automatically filling a table in word from a asp.net app - i use bookmarks in the next top row to determine what data should be inserted into the columns of my tables. However, i am having trouble in getting the individual cells bookmarks and get all the bookmarks from the row instead. This is fine if i have one bookmark in each column as i can use the 3rd bookark and assume that is from the 3rd column, but if i were to have 2 bookmarks in one column, how would i know which column it was that contained the 2 bookmarks?Here is my code that returns all bookmarks for the row even though i am selecting a single cell; and therefore using bookmarks(1) - always the same bookmark(the one in the leftmost

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.

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.
