How to get data from MS Word Documents

[necmine]

I am trying to impelement a program to merge MS Word files. I used COM to open winword and word files. I can save and quit also...

=>>> But i dont know to select all text (and objects if any) and copy-paste to end of `destination DOC file` using COM.

Any method exist to do that?

Someone know?

Hello necmine,

try this:

Dim oWord As Word.Application
Dim oDoc As Word.Document
  
Set oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
  
oWord.Visible = True
  
Set oDoc = oWord.Documents.Add
  
oWord.Activedocument.Range.Text = "This is a test"
 
'This is the command for a complete selection of the whole document
oWord.Selection.WholeStory

'Copy or cut it in the clip board  
'oWord.Selection.Copy
oWord.Selection.Cut

'Here is maybe necessary to set the cursor to the end of document
'oWord.Selection.EndKey 6
oWord.Selection.Paste

I think, if it is a whole Word document, you can alternative use the command

Activedocument.Range.InsertFile(YourFileName)

With this way it is not necessary to use the clip board.

Cheers

Stefan
