View 1 RepliesCan I get a user to create macros in my application, and then get them to run them at run time.
eg. At runtime, the user will type the following into a textbox:
Dim x as integer
x = 5
Msgbox(x)
And then press a button, and the code will execute and pop a messagebox up?
I have been assigned the task of tracking training records used by multiple departments within my company. Before, they would fill out ISO Standard Forms that are built in MS Excel and save them in one folder. This folder held ALL of the documents used by multiple departments, training on multiple topics. The first assignment was to organize this, which I did by building macros in the forms to save these files in a document tree that was built dependent on some data from the form itself. Then they asked me for a program to make it easy to find these files, so I built a program that would populate a series of dropdown boxes that worked their way through the tree. Now they want to add a SQL database to track data from the sheet and add an archiving feature that checks the revision number of the form and moves it to another folder if there are higher revisions.
View 7 RepliesI am trying to end all running macros, but also keep my userform up and it will not work. If you know anything that will work or if there is another way to reactivate a userform
'mycode
End
Userform1.show
end sub
how should I proceed -- with a VB UserForm (eg upon clicking successively a Form Button) -- in order to have a [TextBox.Text] contain (in other words: to have a TextBox show), say, one sentence at a time, text obtained from a MS Word document.Then, also, since it is also essential to my ambitions: can I have all the functionalities of my twenty or so existing word macros (triggered each in Word itself by its corresponding shortcut) available for use in said Form's TextBox? Just as an example, I have macros to simply toggle words between singular and plural or that invert the relative positions of two words, while others are 100 lines long and do searches in another Word document containing glossary entries using bookmarks.I searched the Web for hours on end to get a foothold on this issue to no avail until someone finally hinted at "automation". Then a wealth of info surfaced, but so far I only managed to get as far as this:
Dim msword As Object
msword = CreateObject("Word.Application")
msword.Visible = True
Dim wordDoc As Object
wordDoc = msword.Documents.Open("C:\tests\mydoc.doc")
and, yes, I added references to Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library and to Microsoft Word 11.0 Object Library to my project. I am using Microsoft VB 2010 Express.
What happens is this: When this code runs, first I get a message saying the file is "locked for edition" (or something similar, for mine is a Portuguese version of Word) because it is being use by another user (myself). How should I overcome this hurdle. Then, never minding this initial problem, the dialog box message error offers my the chance of opening a copy as read only. I accept this option and the Word document opens beautifully.But after many trials and only errors, I still don't know how to code so as to get, for example, the first sentence of the document in my TextBox. And, again, will I be able to run my Word macros in the TextBox?
I tried for example:
Selection.MoveRight(Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend)
and
wordDoc.Selection.MoveRight(Unit:=wdSentence, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend)
but they get blue/and/red underlined (illegal)Are Word VBA declarations per se not valid in VB? I have many more hurdles on the way I wish to such as (1) what tricks could I use so as no to loose original formatting when I finally learn how to get the sentences shown in the TextBox and subsequently paste them back into the Word document and (2) populating a ListBox with the content of a database record.
I have the following macro that copies a set of rows and using the "Insert Copied Cell", replicates those rows.

I need to run some Word 2007 mailmerge macros on Windows 2003 terminal services. This is something we've done fine with Word 2000 but the 2007 macros won't work.I understand the issue being the 'pointers' in the macro to h:temp (h being the home drive for each user on the terminal serve). Word 2007 macros only seem to like c:, is that correct or is there a way to get the 2007 macros to use something other than c:.

Please someone help me to find sources to learn writing macros for MS Office Word. I am ended up with getting web pages for only "Recording macro" explained in different ways. While seeing those web pages i got to remember the sentence.
"Sometimes people come up with awful analogies in an effort to describe a concept which is too difficult for a regular person to understand.An infinite number of monkeys hitting at an infinite number of typewriters for an infinite amount of time will eventually produce all works of Shakespeare.". from infinite monkey theorem. Recording macro is very easy one. Most of the writers ended up with writing this article. Please someone suggest me to learn writing Macros for MS Office Word. I am using Word 2007.

I have a security program that stops editing the macros but allows selecting the macros and running them.My code is too long to go into a single procedure. It fails to run and I got the following information when clicking the Help button:
***Code for this procedure exceeds 64K when compiled. ***Break this, and any other large procedures, into two or more smaller procedures.If I split the code into 2 macros, the user can press Run in the View Macros list on the 2nd macro which then corrupts the workbook.

I am in the process of developing a messaging framework for a windows application that sends messages to a java application. To be precise when the win app wants to send a message it simply drops the message in a common database table which will be picked up by the java app. The windows application is deployed across 10 application servers (10 instances) over citrix for load balancing.Each instance of the application is capable of sending a message to the java application and each of these messages should have a unique id. From my end I need to make sure every message generated has to carry a unique id so that they can be identified when necessary. All the messages can be cleared every day or two.i am not quite sure about a best method of achieving this. Initially I wanted to create a static method that serves the next available id (incrementing the last id by 1). But this approach willn't guarantee unique number as the application starts only when at least one user is logged on. For e.g .On one server the app starts when a user logs in, he then sends a message and then the application stops when that user logs off. So when a next request for the app comes to that server a new instance will be started.
