View 1 RepliesI have a need to do some extensive editing on some SGML files. SGML is, of course, just tagged ASCII files. But, I need to convert that SGML to nice, neat MS Word files, with paragraph styles. I need to do extensive searching and replacing. VBA does not have the necesary regular expression support, so, I need to use VB.Net. But, I'm at a loss to do the most basic thing. I just need to know how I can open a Word file in VB.Net.

View 1 RepliesI have been using Visual Basic for about 2 weeks now so I know I am getting in over my head at this point, but times a factor. I have created a user form with around 100 User entered text boxes and pull down menus, tabbed pages etc. I can create a distributable file with no problem. However I cannot find any kind of example, tutorial, etc that will show me how to allow an end user to save the form as "enterfilenamehere.DCP" (for example) and then reopen any .dcp file created in my form application. The only examples and tutorials I can find are how to type text and save it as a txt. format. Could someone lend a complete novice some advice or point me in a good direction on where to learn about saving and opening custom file types?To clarify The user can use my form, But at this point has no way of saving and recalling what they entered in my form. It's a one time use only...not really what I want.

View 1 RepliesI want to use my word add in to open an existing file, the code is:
currentDoc = app.Documents.Open(currentFile)
where currentFile is a string containing the path to the file I want to open, when ever this code runs, there are no errors, but I also cannot see the document
edit: the program first closes the 'currentFile', adds something to the package, then tries to open it again with the line above, when it closes the document the word application stays open with no document in it, but when it opens it again it is not seen in the application, but the document is open

I would like to include a tutorial with my project. It will be located under the Help menu. Problem is, that I don't know how to open a file because the user can install it wherever they want. How can I include the word document file as part of the project so the code can open it no matter where it's installed? -Nothing to see. Move along.
View 6 RepliesThe 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?

I'm currently developing a program which takes inputs on a form, and copies them to Microsoft Word Documents, renames the documents, and saves them in a desired location. Here is an example of the code I'm using to edit the documents[code]...
In general, this works great. It does ALMOST everything I need. Unfortunately, however, it also deletes the bookmarks. This isn't a problem with most of the documents, but on one of the documents being created, I need to leave the bookmarks in place, and just change their text. This is because the program needs to be able to go back, in the future, and retrieve the saved values of these bookmarks.
I tried just eliminating the "range" part of it, and just editing the text of the bookmark itself with a "objdoc.bookmarks("PROJECT_NUMBER").text = xxxx" statement, but this doesn't work.

I have a function on my program that allows a user to load a listbox filled with words that are matched with words inside a databank. The databank is filled with 2 string arrays and file of .jpg Pictures. The Arrays attached to each word inside the listbox are approximately one page. Each page is two paragraphs of Text(string Array) and one Picture(20Kbytes).My problem is this. When the user selects the option print all, the listbox with approximately 10255 words is selected and begins to fill a Microsoft Word Document.Because the alotted amount of space needed for the MS Word Document is approximately 5 Gbytes,I need to open about 10 Documents and insert the String Array's and Pictures into each document one at a time.Is there anyway to check the filesize of the Open Document before saving the document.This way I could check the open document inside the algorithm for 512 Mbytes of memory and save the document before the size gets above 512 Mbytes.[code]
