Hello, I wrote a small AutoIt App which takes DOS formatted textfiles and forwards them to MS Word. I searched a lot for a programm which does this, but I didn't find one. The reason for it is an old DOS program, which is used a lot, even today. The user wanted to print the output of that programm with some other font-size, font-style and so on... We used WinPrint, but this is a printing only app, so no formatting can be done afterwards... The solution was, to print with the DOS prgramm to an file, e.g. C:\12345\output.txt ... then read this file, convert it to unicode, put this

Hello! i wrote this function as alternative to using the Com Object or Commandline version of this project, discussed also earlyer on this forum. Project site - http://ebstudio.info/home/xdoc2txt.html Advantage of this implementation is that you do not need to register Com dll, using regsvr32. But you still need the project Dll (xd2txlib.dll).

I have a Word document containing a 9-column table where row 1 is the column headers. My goal is to read the table into a 2d array, remove some rows, update some fields, and add a few rows to the end. The resulting array will likely be a different length. Next, I want to write the data back into the table. If it's easier, I can write the data to a new document from a template containing the same table header with a blank 2nd row. Here's my early attempt: Local $oWord = _Word_Create() Local $oDoc = _Word_DocOpen($oWord, $sFile) Local $aData = _Word_DocTableRead($oDoc, 1) $aData[3

Backstory: Our Microsoft Office Templates shared folder was changed from a DFS share to an Isilon share. example: Old Server: \\Domain.com\Office\Templates New Server: \\Templates.domain.com\Office\Templates The team making the changes overlooked that several hundred thousand documents, had been attached to the old template documents. So when you open a document which has been attached, it will take a couple of minutes to open, while it tries to locate the old server path. I've been asked to come in and fix it, so after several hours found that the data is being held in docu

Good evening everyone I am working with Word UDF ( thanks @water! ), and, especially, with the function _Word_DocFindReplace(). The replace does work everywhere in the document, but, it does not work in Headers or Footers. Am I missing something or am I forced to use the code below? I have already looked in the Help file ( about _Word_DocFindReplace() ), but there are no mentions about replace text in Headers/Footers. Sub FindAndReplaceFirstStoryOfEachType() Dim rngStory As Range For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges With rngStory.Find .Text = &

I've failed to find an example of _Word_DocFindReplace which searches for formatted text (I'm looking for stand alone paragraph marks that are formatted other than normal i.e. Bold Italic, Underlined). The reason being that when converting a Word document to html one of the main problems in the results is that a stand alone paragraph mark is converted to an html space that retains the formatting ...> <... thus showing up as a underline _ in a browser when it should be blank. I've played around with the script and got it to at least un-bold the first paragraph mark regar

I'm using the Word UDF for the first time, and I'm having some trouble with _Word_DocFind(). There isn't really much talk around the forums about this so it's hard to find any support on the issue I'm having. Here's my code: #include <Word.au3> $listPath = @ScriptDir & "\AMCH OFFSET 042617.docx" $pWord = _Word_Create() $oWord = _Word_DocOpen($pWord, $listPath) Local $ctr = 0 Local $searchRange = _Word_DocFind($oWord, "Claim Number") If Not @error Then $ctr += 1 EndIf While ($searchRange <> 0) $searchRange = _Word_DocFind($oWord, "

I'm attempting to read each line of a word document and assign the line to a variable. Similarly to how you can read a line from a text file (.txt or .csv) using FileReadLine(). So far i have been unsuccessful in reading from a .doc/.docx file, nor have i found any documentation that has helped. In searching for a solution i did find a function to convert the word doc to a text file, however my script is for (PCI) auditing purposes and i do not want to create a new file on the HDD. I have also read through the _Word UDF help files... Unless im not understanding the _Word UDF correctly, I d

Hello I would create a KWIC (Key Word in Context) index, and for this I need to access to a paragraph style. But the style returned is empty. I realized this function as Word macro without problems (If anyone is interested can download it from www.condorinformatique.com).

Hello Guys, I'm trying to open a document with _WordDocOpen and replace some text in it with _Word_DocFindReplace and then print with _Word_DocPrint and finally close with _Word_DocClose and kill word with _Word_Quit.

Trying to find a quick way to convert 30k+ WordPerfect files into Word. Will probably run it locally from an admin machine or server so user permissions won't affect it. My idea was just to open the file, select all, copy, open new word doc, paste, file, save.... What would be the best way to go about scripting something in this way?
