My application crashes when trying to save a word document as text. The error at SaveAs is "Type mismatch. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80020005 (DISP_E_TYPEMISMATCH))" I am opening and manipulating a Word 2003 Document (using Word 2007) and then trying to save it as a text file.
[Code]...
I'm using the FileSaveAs dialog control to allow the user to select a filename to save a file either as a doc file, an rtf file or a pdf file (that part was easy).However, after a bit of testing, it seems that the file extension doesn't automatically change when selecting the different file types.If the filename in the dialog is Foo.doc and I select FileType *.pdf and click "Save", my app still tries to save the file as a doc type.Virtually every other MS app automatically changes the extension to match a selected file type from the Office Suite to Paint. here's my code:
Dim dlg As New SaveFileDialog
dlg.InitialDirectory = m_sReportFolder
dlg.FileName = sProjectName & ".docx"[code]......
My system has Office2007. And i use VB.Net to automate word. Everything works fine. But when tried to save in Word2003 format(.doc), it is not working. But the saved document is readable in Word2007.

write a VB code that will open Word, create a Word document then, upon exiting Word, automatically have the file name save in a specific folder based on an Excel worksheet cell value? In other-words, if...let's say... if a worksheet cell value is 09-1, can a code be written to save a document as c:/NBI/Docs/09-1.doc ? Or am I going WAY beyond the scope of a VB nubee...?
View 4 RepliesI'm working on an application which automatically generates faxes.The system uses word interop to fill a template .doc file with values (which works fine), but when it comes to be time to print the resulting file to pcl, I'm having issues. So, we've got a HP Laserjet printer set up which prints .pcl files.
Dim appWord As New Word.Application
Dim doc As New Word.Document
appWord.ActivePrinter = PCL_PRINTER
[code]......
Problem is that when the doc.PrintOut line runs, word complains, popping up a message:I've tried all sorts of combinations of things, but the error message persists. Very occasionally, the thing actually works and generates a usable pcl file, but 98% of the time, the error message pops up and the whole process grinds to a halt.
We have other applications on the same server which do almost exactly the same thing, except they print from excel instead of word, and they work without throwing the error.
I am creating new documents from templates and then saving them as docx files.My understanding is that when I go to my saveas method I should be able to have the wdFormatXMLDocument as one of my fileformat options.However I don't.I have to use the numerical equivalent of 12.I have imported the Word 2007 interop and have all the methods at my fingertips there, but can't seem to find this particular option.

View 6 RepliesI have been trying to figure out how to read paragraph content which exists a heading. The heading itself is part of the table of contents. The heading will have a particular style (say Heading 1). For example: "Introduction" is a entry in Table of content with style Heading 1. I want to read content under heading "Introduction" but not any more content (i.e not content under sub headings of Introduction) I have been trying to do this using styles/style, TableofContent, Paragraphs/Paragraph,Range.

I am automating Word from VB.Net.I open a document by:
Dim msWord as Word.Application = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Dim doc As Word.Document = msWord.Documents.Add(Template:=Path)
where path points to a template file I created with a header and a watermark. The template has some bookmarks which I want to dynamically set to some appropriate text values:
doc.Bookmarks("DocumentTitle").Range.Text = "The Joy of Office Automation"
If I comment out that line, the document opens in Word with the watermark, etc, in place. If I let that line execute, it inserts the text as appropriate, but the watermark and other things disappear from the document. You can actually see it flash briefly, and then disappear.FWIW, this is Office Word 2007, and I am opening a .Dot (Word 97-2003) template. The Bookmark.Range.Text I am setting is in the document header.

The following code allows words to be added to a listbox. Add the word to a text file and create a folder with the word as its name. The second part undoes the actions.If I try to delete the word immediately after adding it one of two things happen.
1.An error is reported stating the path cannot be found. Although the listbox index value is correct according to the code the error is pointing at that index +1.
2.The code continues to the point of requesting conformation to delete the folder, still pointing at the index value +1. I the action is confirmed the wrong folder is deleted.
However if I stop debugging, then run the code again all works correctly.Is it likely to persist when the application is compiled?

Using Excel Automation classes I am seeking to save an Excel file as a delimited text file. The examples given in the MSDN library refer to versions older than Express 2008 with (apparently) different syntax options for FileFormat.Based on the snippet shown, I get a COM exception error (800A03EC). Other variations produce the same error.
Am I improperly applying the Automation features?

I am working on a legacy VB.NET application that uses Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word, with Office 2003 installed on the server. When I publish my site, even though my config file clearly shows v11: The site will crash saying v12 couldn't be found: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
Note: I currently have Office 2003 & 2007 installed on my dev machine, also, when looking @ references I am given the option of selecting v11 or v12 (so v11 is def. there). Within a page on the site the page does an import statement for Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word. Is it possible to specify the version at this point, or any way to force it to use v11 without me uninstalling my v12?

I am able to insert a textbox into a Word document using the below code:
Dim opProcedures As Word.Shape
opProcedures = oDoc.Shapes.AddTextbox(Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTextOrientation.msoTextOrientationHorizontal, 0, 0, 456.75, 24.75)
opProcedures.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "Operational Procedures"
This adds a textbox to the first page of the document however even when I change the first (top) parameter I am unable to move the textbox onto the second page (only lower down onto the 1st page, any greater values than the height of the first page an it disappears).
How can I get the textbox to appear on the 2nd page of the document?

I have an issue with an Office addin I'm working on, which is implemented for Office 2003 & 2007. The addin is written in VB.NET 3.5 using VSTO.The problem comes from some external code which automates a mail merge, opening the mail merge template, merging and then closing the template document. The close is done with this code:
objWord.Documents(sDoco).Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges, OriginalFormat:=wdPromptUser
Because of some logic in my addin, instigated from the Interop.Word.Application.DocumentBeforeClose event, a message box is opened which prevents the Office document from closing, which breaks the automation.
Is there a way for me to determine the SaveChanges parameter (if any) on a Close within an Office.Interop.Word.Application event, such as DocumentBeforeClose? I'm trying to capture this parameter and determine if it's set to wdDoNotSaveChanges so that I can work around this problem.
I'm trying to call this code in VB.NET with "option strict on":
Dim application As word.Application = New word.Application
application.WordBasic.DisableAutoMacros(1)
The WordBasic object is dynamic, there is no type library available.Now the compiler will complain, because late binding is not allowed.
It says .Application ambiguous Error6'Application' is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word'.
Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
oWord = CType(CreateObject("Word.Application"), Word.Application)
oDoc = oWord.Documents.Add()
