I have a program which generates a table in a word document based on my input to the program. I have 2 documents, a header.doc and a footer.doc. I need to do the following.

1) Open header.doc

2) Select All contents

3) Copy Selection

4) Paste in new document

5) Generate Table

6) Open footer.doc

7) Select All contents

8) Copy Selection

9) Paste in new document

I currently have steps 1,5,6 working. I know how to copy and paste, so 3,4,8,9 should not be a problem. 2 and 7 are where my issue lies. Please help!!

Wow I can't believe I didn't think of that. So Simple, yet effective. If anybody has a programmatic way to do it, please feel free to respond with that method as well. Thanks GEOSoft!!
