Pass MS Word variable to AutoIt

[TripScott]

This seems like something that should be relatively easy, but I can't find any references to it anywhere.

I am having AutoIt run a macro in Word 2003 (on XP). Word will do it's thing and store the data as a variable. How to I get that data into AutoIt?

The Word script just has it read some text in the document and then store the value as valPartNum. I want that to to be stored in AutoIt's variable $sPartnumber.

Any ideas

CODE

$oWordApp = ObjGet("", "Word.Application")

$oWordDoc = ObjGet("", "Word.Application.Documents")

_WordMacroRun($oWordApp, "GetPartNumber")

$sPartnumber = $oWordDoc.script.variablename("valpartnum")

Thanks for any help.

Why not just use filereadline?

Because I don't know what I am doing.

I am not sure how I would write it.

oWordApp = ObjGet("", "Word.Application")
$oWordDoc = ObjName("", "Word.Application.Documents")

$line = FileReadLine($oWordDoc)
_WordMacroRun($oWordApp, "GetPartNumber")
