Running A Mailmerge From Vb Using Word And Excel?
Nov 10, 2009
I'm developing a small vb application that will enable a user to select an excel spreadsheet as the source data and a word document as a letter template then create a mailmerge from the two.It's all working fine apart from when the mailmerge runs, a dialog box pops up asking for the sheet to be selected. The list of options is blank until the 'options' button is clicked and 'system tables' is selected. This is a word thing but I'd like to turn this off, if possible selecting the necessary options programatically from within my vb application.
My opendatasource code is:
.OpenDataSource(Name:=sourcefile, LinkToSource:=True, SQLStatement:="select * from 'Sheet1$'", _
[code].....

My program needs to create a mailmerge with Word using a specific group of clients from the sql database list. I have a datatable set up in the database that stores the clients information on the individual user's computer.
The code below will automate word to create the mailmerge, but I can't figure out how to pull the following from my client table and use the results as a mailmerge datasource[code]...

I am using VB.net 2010 to generate a letter from a Word 2002 template. The template has MailMerge bookmarks where the database values will be displayed (for example the letter receiving company's address). Currently I have:
«Company Contact»
«Company Name»
«Address1»
[Code].....
If "Address2" value is blank, then don't display the bookmark in the letter output (hence avoid displaying a blank line)

When I execute the code provided, Word 2010 opens and appears visible and then stops with an error: "COMException was unhandled". But if I execute the code line by line (F8), the code runs perfectly, that is Word 2010 opens, it is visible and the template is opened. The error fails (always) on the third line of code. What is going on and how might I fix it? [Code]

I'm calling the following method from a button click event to export a datatable to excel. After the export is completed, the excel application object is quit, released and assigned to nothing. But in reality it's not getting released and stays active unless the entire application is closed. So every time the button is clicked for export, a new excel application object keeps on running. How can I solve this?
The problem doesn't occur if two of the lines from the method below are not used. But I can't omit them as they are really needed. Check the * marked lines.

I have a program that uses Excel files as a datasource. When I import data I start the Excel interfaces and after the whole thing is complete I close and empty the Excel references...But, the Excel program will still be running in the backround.(When I check the Task Manager it shows at least one EXCEL running...)Also, one of my excel-files always prompts for "Do you want to save the changes" option when I import the file into my program. Even though it has not been running at all... ?

I'm using vb.net to check that certain Excel or Word documents exist in a folder.
EG
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyExcelFile.xls")
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyWordDoc.doc")
If the documents are created using Excel 97 or Word 97 the files are found. If the the documents are created using Excel 2007 or Word 2007 the files are not found.
I have checked the permissions between the two different versions and they appear to be the same.
why Dir dosen't work with Excel 2007 and Word 2007 files?

I have a sql table with a binary field where any kind of document can be stored. I'd like to show them using webbrowser (or PrintPreviewControl if possible). The only way I found was to save the stream as a file and then navigate with the webbrowser, but when I navigate to an Excel file and then I navigate to any other file, my system reboots (I tested in other workstations -W2000 and XP). I'd like to load the webbrowser with the stream without having to save it as a file. Or show the stream on a PrintPreviewControl or similar?
