Microsoft Word - word13 macro design

Microsoft Word - word13 macro design

word13 macro design

Posted: 11 Jul 2013 04:34 AM PDT

I have a WORD 2013 *.dotx form file to be filled in.

 

One of the lines has a TEXT CONTENT CONTROL with a UNIQUE STYLE (I'm using the value of this as part of the header from page two onwards)

 

I would like to write

  1. an AutoOPEN macro which asks for INPUT into this TEXT CONTENT CONTROL indetifiable by the UNIQUE STYLE
  2. use the (INPUT)=TEXT CONTENT CONTROL as filename and ask user to select directory where to save and then save the file
  3. after completing all other sections of the form - click a 'button' on the form which runs a macro to:
  • save the file
  • create a Pdf file with the same filename - save it to directory selected by user
  • open outlook with new mail with the Pdf file as attachment - user to input receipient's email addresses

Is this possible within Word 2013 - does anyone have a sample macro to use (modify)?

THANKS

the fonts are too close to each other in word, why is that?

Why are the letters so close to each other in that example.

I need to have it fixed. The top one is office 2013 and the lower one is office 2007.

Word VBA to delete all section breaks

I am looking for code that will force Word to use the initial header and footer (i.e., delete all secondary section breaks).

Does anybody have the code for that?

Mail Merge - If statement - Date Issue - Can't get the a field with a date to show on the Mail Merge form

Posted: 10 Jul 2013 07:23 PM PDT

Another Mail Merge Question.  I'm creating an If formula which will either create a line on a form if the field is blank or show the actual content from the data field, which in the case, happens to be a date (MM/dd/yyyy).  The data is pulled from a database into Excel and the column has mostly blank fields, but a few with an actual date.  Because this is a marriage date field, there won't always be date. 

 

Anyways, I setup the formula, and for the records with a blank field, I get the line.  However, for the fields with a date, nothing appears.  I read somewhere that Mail Merge doesn't work if the field columns with dates also have blank cells. 

 

Here's the formula I'm using:   {if{ Mergefield "fieldname"} = "" "_________"{ Mergefiled "fieldname"}} .  

 

I also tried adding \*@ "MM/dd/yyyy" after the final fieldname, but that didn't do anything either. 

 

For formula works in other sections of the form where the data field is just the YEAR.  Maybe because it's just 4 digits, it's actually considered text instead of a number or date. 

Using both Word 2010 and Word 2013

Posted: 10 Jul 2013 05:18 PM PDT

Hello, 
I currently have full installations of both Office 2010 Professional Plus and Office 2013 Professional installed on my laptop computer. I can run both versions of any Office program congruently, with the exceptions of Word and Outlook. While I understand the conflict between Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013, I was wondering if there is any way to get Word 2010 and 2013 to launch without the previous instance being cancelled out with the latest one. Basically, whenever I try to switch between the two Word versions I receive a pop-up stating that Office 20xx is configuring for setup. Again, this only happens for Word. I can use Excel, Powerpoint, Publisher, Onenote, etc without need for Office to re-configure. I am not running either version of Office in click2run. They are both full installs. Thanks in advance for any info

Visual line on every line in between text and tables

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 09:14 AM PDT

When converting a 2010 Word file to 2013, there is a visual line on every line in between text and tables in Print Layout and I can't get rid of it, very distracting. Seems like it has to do with new layout options, but is not new gridlines feature.

Word 2013 - 'The directory name is not valid' error

Posted: 06 Jul 2013 01:36 AM PDT

I recently installed office 365 home premium, and have been running word. i transferred all my schoolwork from a usb flash drive to skydrive so i wouldn't have to use the flash drive. i found that it was a bit slow, so i saved a copy of the work onto the hard drive. After this i renamed both the hard drive and the folder my work was in to a better suiting name. i opened word to continue my document. using 'open other documents', i located my work on the hard drive and attempted to open it. i receive the error message 'the directory name is not valid (C:/.../English - THE BRANDON SECRET F...)'
