Opening A Word Template Inside A Winform
Oct 29, 2009
I am trying to open a word template inside a form in my vb.net application but I cannot seem to find any guidance to doing this. I do not want to call microsoft word to open in order to see/read/write on my template. I want the word document to be within a form I am creating like a print preview sort off. I am using Word 2007 and VS 2008. I have been using so far automation and calling and interacting with the template but until so far I have to open Microsoft word to open it for me.

Done quite a bit of looking but not finding what i need. From a win form i'd like to open up a web browser passing in a url. But i need to provide authentication while doing this. I tried just using a system.diagnostics.process.start("http://userid:pw@site") but that does not work. Was hoping someone could lend a hand.
[Code]...
so is there anything else that can be done to get IE to work.. cause i'm thinking that would allow the above code to work as well.

I need to open a .xlt for editing, like so:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("Template.xlt", "Editable=True")
But I don't know the correct switch in Excel. This is the same as right-clicking on an .xlt and choosing "Open", whereas the default action is "New".

I'm writing some project management software for a buddy of mine. He has some Word Template files that he uses to create his actual contracts to be signed. I'm trying to find a way in .NET to extract the contract data from SQL Server and use that data to automatically create the Word files for each project with the Template Data filled in.

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.

I am attempting to write some data from my program to a word document using a template. What I would like to know is how can I duplicate a page in the word document depending on data in the program. To be more specific the user enters product data into the program. Most times it will be only one product however sometimes it will be 2 or 3 products. When it is more than one product I will need to duplicate a page in the word document to enter the second or third product information.

I have a program in which I am trying to do the mail merge with the word template that I already have.
I have already setup the datasource for the word template in the word itself and it is pointing to my Employee Table which has all the information for the employee. I have also inserted the merge fields in the document where ever I need them. Now I want to print the document (Letter) with all the merge fields filled in from my application but for only employee whose Name or Number I sent from my program not all the employees I have in the datasource.
Now if I have to do it in Word, we have an option called Find Recipient in Mailings -> Preview Results in which I can set the Name or Number of the employee to get all his information to do the merge but how can I do the same thing from my program.
I can send all the fields values from my code like in the code below but I want to use my datasource to provide values. I have employee's Number I want to provide to the template to find the employee - so all the values are filled based on the employee's Number.

I have a userControl11 (either in winform or wpf) which has a ValueChanged custom event. If I put it in client form and in form_load set its value to 100, it will trigger the ValueChanged event. But if I set this value inside the constructor of UserControl1 the custom event won't trigger. How can I force it to do so ?whatever the technical reason, functionally it does make sense. If the object is initializing its value from some sources unknown to the client form and the client form has a textbox bound to this usercontrol value, it is sure convenient that it could refresh its textbox at any time including when the form loads just using one single event handler. Without this the client form has to create another initializer for this bound textbox at form load.
Below the source code of my trials in winform:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;

In my VB.Net app, I want to read in a load of addresses from a database and then use word to create address labels on an Avery template L7163 which is then printed to the printer.
However, I have two issues:
1. Before word prints, I'm asked to select the printer etc. not exactly the nice automated application I was looking for.
2. Even though I get a nice printed out doc I was looking for, I also get a nasty looking error at the end which "loops" until I close my app -2147417848: The object invoked has disconnected from its clients. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800010108(RPC_E_DISCONNECTED))
Here is my code:
CODE:
I adapted the code for the actual mail merge by recording a Macro in Word As I manually ran one so I thought it would be ok.

If an excel document is opened inside a webbrowser control, and you try opening another excel document using a different instance of the same web-browser control, the previous opened excel (inside the web-browser) would not allow users to edit the excel workbook.

not quite sure why this is happening but I am just debugging right now and the buttons I am using are opening the wrong forms, I have made sure of the form names, button names etc and it looks all good but specifically the btnPrintReport is opening up the form enterAuditForm while btnProcessAudit is opening printAuditForm instead of their correct ones.
Here's my code, it is rather simple. The reason why I am using a separate sub as my btnPrintReport is because I am using that also on the baseForm's OnLoad Event, which again is also opening the wrong form.

I decided it was about time I learned about accessing Microsoft Office products via VB.NET. I started with Excel and it all worked fine, I could create a new Excel Application, open a workbook from file and read from the sheet then close it all down again no worries. However, when I turned to Word...things got strange. Using the code provided below, every time I run it an instance of Microsoft Word opens itself on the desktop (with no loaded content). I didn't have this problem when using Excel with similar code, so I have to ask..what gives? Is there a way I can stop MS word opening at all? At the moment it just flickers for a second (it opens when I open the document, then when I call the Quit method it shuts down a split second later)[code]...

I want to open a number of RTF documents in Word 2007, one at a time, in a VB .NET program. Here is a small representative sample of my code:
Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Public Shared WordApp As Object = Nothing
Public Shared WordAppInit As Boolean = False
Public Shared Sub ExecWord()
If Not WordAppInit Then
On Error Resume Next
[Code] .....
Sometimes it hangs on one of the WordApp or WordDoc statements in TestSub1; sometimes it gets all the way through TestSub1 without problems but then hangs in TestSub2. Often it leaves an instance of WinWord running so that I have to kill it in Task Manager or reboot the system.

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!

It is my goal to write a program to run a retail store. I am an intermediate Access developer, so I have a good grasp of the basics.However, I find that developing in VB 2010 is quite different.I will have forms for:
Company Information
Employee Information
Supplier Information
Customer Information
Invoices & Purchase Orders
All I really need to know at this point is the code to open and close each form.
