I'm writing a spreadsheet which performs automatic reporting in Word at the moment and, having done this once before I thought it would be simple... Unfortunately however I seem to have run into the following problem:
I'm trying to have Excel paste in a table, then move down one line, enter a page break and then repeat for all of the tables it needs to paste.
Among a rather large sub which I re-used from another project is this bit of code which is relevant to this part:
Dim AppExcel As Window
Set AppExcel = ActiveWindow
Set appwd = CreateObject("Word.Application")
appwd.Visible = True
Set appwd = CreateObject("Word.Application")
appwd.Visible = True
appwd.Documents.Open Filename:=FileToOpen
'select test bookmark
appwd.activedocument.Bookmarks("test123").Select
The key bit is this segment, which is the part repeated for each table (it all works up to here)
For K = ActionFrom To ActionTo
Cells(3, 2) = K
Call SelectNode
LR = Sheets("Data_Entry").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
With appwd
.Selection.Paste
.Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1
.Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
End With
Next K
The two bits in red are what I am trying to now do, but Word keeps returning the error 'bad parameter'. I've tried doing it both in and out of the 'with' function and I can't seem to make it work...
I need to count how many times the word Test is in the range B4:H9 with
Range N2 = Test the formula below works if Test is only in the cell once.
=COUNTIF($B$4:$H$9,"*" & N2 & "*")
But I have data in cells like below, this is all in one cell, so how would I have it count all the times test is in the range when some cells have test 2 or more times in a single cell?
1. I have a excel file with Japanese words in column A and their English equivalents in column B.
2. I am trying to create a Macro and assign it to a button. On pressing the button Macro should be able to:
3. open a form where I can enter location of a word file.
4. Macro should open the word file specified in (3).
5. Macro will pick up first Japanese word from excel file (Sheet 1 - A1)
6. Search for that word in Word file
7. Replace the Japanese words in Word file with their English equivalent from excel (B1)
8. Then it should search for second word (A2) and replace with its equivalent (B2) and so on till it reaches last filled cell in excel file column A.
After a lot of search I could find a code from net (Below), made a few changes, but it is not working.

I am in the middle of automating a process here at work, the program takes a word, "pencil" for example, from excel. It will then open up a word document with content already in it (premade template). The program will then find all instances of a string, "placepencilhere" for example, and will replace that instance with the string from excel.
Basically I want to be able to take a variable that has a stored string value from excel and use it to replace another variable in a word document.
I tried recording a replace (ctrl+f, replace tab) macro, copying the code, and inserting it into the excel vba code.. but I get a error message. Here is what I have:
I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below
Code: Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1) On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &
[Code].....
After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."
When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"
If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.
Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.
I have an excel program that is supposed to count word instances in a word document. I can't seem to find the right declaration for a word document. For example to declare a workbook in excel its
Dim wb As Work Book
I've tried
Dim doc As Word.Document 'or Dim doc As Word.Application
as shown in some of the forum posts, but an error user-type not defined keeps displaying.
I have a user who is asking if it is possible to create a custom checkbox control for use inside of Excel. This new checkbox control is essentially a checkbox control that has other graphics around the checkmark other than a square.
For instance, he need to have a triangle that has a clickable checkmark inside it. He needs a circle with a clickable checkmark inside as well as a couple of other shapes that have a clickable checkmark inside (no square around the checkbox). I've tried to put a regular checkbox on top of a graphic but you have to deal with the square corners of the checkbox even if it's set to transparent.
Any code or otherwise on how to create a custom or add-in that would do what I describe?
I have an excel application which works extremely well in one single instancec. It has a bunch of ActiveX control objects on the worksheet. Generally I call them by convention Sheet1.Cmd.show.
I have since experimented with having multiple instances of excel running on the machine. I start to notice something very strange. The first instance I open and run all the activeX buttons are all clickable. As soon as I open a second instance of an excel program all the activeX buttons on the worksheet are not even clickable. They are enabled by my program, but not clickable as if they were not there at all.
I also try open a normal excel workbook then followed by my excel program in a second instance. Even though the first excel file does not utilize any activeX objects all my buttons on the subsequent instance are not clickable.
The weird thing is all my activeX control objects on a userforms are still clickable and call to all my planned events in my program. It is just all the activeX controls on my worksheet that do not have any reaction at all.
I always think when one opens a new instance it will be totally indpendent and would even occupy another CPU if my machine has more in it. If they are truly independent then I am at a loss to understand why my activeX controls would fail to work at all.
My set up office 2007 win xp pro ie 8 I am using the code below to retrieve web pages etc it works fine, however it display in differ areas of the screen, so I was wondering if there is a way to control the positioning and the size of the window?
Code: Set EXP = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.application") EXP.Visible = True EXP.Navigate (aurl)
I have a form that collects four pieces of information from the user and places each into columns A, B, C, D on a sheet. I would like to automatically add an option button to column E so that a user could select it and then click a control button to delete the corresponding row.
Is this possible or is there maybe a better way to do this in Excel 2007.
My X axis range is small 1 to 4. but I want to show minor grid lines at 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 only. I do not want lines at 1, 2, 3 or 4. I am not sure how to achieve this. as switching on minor grid lines, included those at the integers as well as at the half way points.
I want the contents of the text box (which will be input by the user) to update a cell in another worksheet. I have found numerous examples of how to display the contents of a cell in the text box but I want to know how to display the text box contents in a cell.
i have a set of data in excel.. i want that, when i click a command button on an active worksheet, it will be transferred in ms word all the data found in excel.
I have set up a calendar control on a userform and got it to pop up when selecting one of 3 cells on a worksheet. The various bits of code making this work are below.
This code is attached to the Userform.
VB: Private Sub Calendar1_Click() With ActiveCell .Value = Calendar1.Value
[Code]....
What I am struggling with is that I'd like to have the calendar that pops up in cell C18 (which is Date of Birth) default to starting on 1st January 1987 not todays date. Also, if there is a value in either of the 3 cells that use the calendar, then I'd like the calendar to display that date. If the cell is empty then todays date is fine for cells G3 and G26.
My drop downs are simple yes/no/NA witht a down arrow apprearing to the right. Works fine for all users except one troublemaker who for some reason sees the text and arrow as a mirrored, upside down image. It's not rotated to be upside down, it's mirrored so if you turned your monitor upside down you'd see the letters in the words backwards as if looking in a mirror. We're both on Excel 2007.
I have this excel sheet which I want to export to a word document. The following code has been used:
[Code].....
It creates a word document but it only copies and pastes a picture of the excel sheet. I want for the user to edit the word document values that are pasted from the Excel sheet. I know I need to change somewhere in the:
[Code] .....
How can I paste values from excel to word that can be modified inside of word?
ALSO:
How can I change the layout of the word document, for example if I want to add a header and a footer?
I am creating an order checklist in Excel. I want it that if the sales rep clicks on a certain field that a macro will populate the form that is needed. If the rep does not click on that box then the certain form will not be populated. Is this possible?
I have a database list, and run a bunch of formatting, inserting, formulas etc., to be able to have a Word Mail Merge be able to run against the data when finished. I'm automating the process and want to be able to open the Word document when the Excel piece is done, so the user doesn't have to navigate to the file manually.
Since Excel doesn't seem to automatically 'see' Word docs in the Open File dialog list, my Open File code below is getting an error of "File Format is Not Valid":
ChDir "O:UAIBDCustomer RelationsIDHome Office Indexing" Workbooks.Open Filename:= _ "O:UAIBDCustomer RelationsIDHome Office IndexingID Home Office Indexing Mail Merge Template TESTING.docx"
Within the ComboBox properties, is there anyway to control after "enter" his hit, you move to the right instead of down (similar to the edit under Tools/Options)?
"How to create a 'main' macro to control other macros within a workbook". I have my individual macros created. There's one macro for each sheet that searches online data and returns the information. I have one of these per sheet (a total of 20 sheets) since I couldn't find a way to have all 20 macros be on one sheet and still work. My trouble is that whenever I'm on my 'main' sheet and try to run the macro which applies to a 'secondary' sheet, I get an error. I have to select the sheet first, then run the macro and it works. Below is the macro on each sheet.
VB: Sub Holding1() Dim DataSheet As Worksheet Dim EndDate As Date [code].....
I have a userform with a textbox and would like the user to type inside the textbox which in turn send the text typed to a cell on my spread sheet say sheet 1 cell ref A1.

I have a very indepth spreadsheet at work. We also have a form that was typed up in word that uses some of the information from the spreadsheet. I was wondering if there is a way to have the information from the spreadsheet autofill the form that is in word?
I am exporting data in from a different program (Results Plus), into a Word 2010 mail merged document with a header file attached. The header file is an Excel table of my merged fields. I have gone through all the steps to make sure it's not that software. Now I still cannot figure out why all of my months are turning into "00" in a Word mail merge. I have tried @ "MM/dd/yyyy" and it end ups flipping the month and day around.
For example: it should be January 8, 2013. It shows up originally in my document as "00 8, 2013". When I add the [switch] @ "MM/dd/yyyy" it shows up as, "08/01/2013". When I tested it out and put "MMMM/dd/yyyy" it shows up as August 1, 2013 instead of what it should be, January 8, 2013.
I am having a formatting issue within a cell. I would like to accomplish a TAB space between to words so they always have the same space between, no matter how many characters the words or numbers have.
Example: I insert text and numbers from different cells in to one.
Formula: ........
It looks like this... so far so good. 25.02.2014 EUR 5'600.00 1.2177 CHF 6'819.12 Withrawal
But if i insert multiple lines with higher or lower amounts the formating goes wrong.
The target would be to keep straight lines like with the TAB in Word.

I know there is no TAB whitin excel cells, but maybe there is a way to set a default charachter lenght that can be forced even if the amount or the text is shorter.
I would like to extract some text from a word file and transfert it into an excel spreadsheet. My text is always presented in the same way. First there is a line with some data (see exemple bellow). I have no problem to extract them using the macro bellow even it's not perfect.
My problem is on the main text. I weed to keep the format or at least the different paragraphes as when you copy text in word and past it in the formula bar (or press F2).
Here is an exemple of my word file
Code : XXX1- Abrege : DGS45 - Type : D - ADICAP : PHXT5847
