Draw a horizontal line in ms word using dde

Hi All
I m trying to draw a horizonatl line in ms word through forms usind DDE. can anyone tell me how to do that? I m using forms6i, word 2003 on windows xp
thanks

Consider switching to OLE using the OLE2 built-in. Word's DDE command set is outdated and, as you probably have realized, poorly documented. If you must use DDE, I've heard that Word's old macro language -- WordBasic -- is very similar to its DDE command set. Perhaps you can find an old WordBasic book, or an online WordBasic reference.
Hope this helps,

  • Drawing a horizontal line

    I have a LineChart, with a few series on it, and I want to
    draw horizontal lines to indicate when the series fell above or
    below various critical values. I can't find a way to do this other
    than to make each line a series of two points, but this seems like
    sort of a hacked way to do this. Is there a more direct way?

    Hello Valter Oliveira,
    Thanks for your answer. But I need some more detail about blank line text. i.e thrid point.
    Could you please tell me how to insert blank line text.
    1 - in your table, create a line type with only one column, with the same width of the table
    2 - in table painter, create a line under the line type
    3 - insert a blank line text in the footer section with the line type you have created.

    Hi,
    Is it possible to draw a horizontal line (63% as shown in image or 15.75 and vertical line at intersection to X axis) in chart.
    please suggest code
    Regards

    Have you tried using cursors?  Right click on the chart and show the cursor legend.  Then right click the legend and add a cursor.

  • Horizontal line safari

    Over the weekend my safari browser started drawing a horizontal line about 5 spaces up from the bottom edge.  Other apps don't have this line appearing on the screen.  iOS 6.1.2 is my current rev level.....this is not a show stopper but annoying.  Has anyone else have this extra line drawn at the bottom segment of the screen?

    Michele,
    I know this was mostly answered, but I am there with you. It's a very frustrating problem and you are not alone.
    Merging the keyboard and splitting it again, as well as hard closing Safari, seemd to fix it, if only temporarily.
    Slightly lifting the split keyboard from the bottom seems to completely solve this SEVERELY annoying and temper tantrum inducing problem. It has taken me more time than I'd like to admit to fix this, and I have my doubts that it will work permanently as well.
    But anything that MIGHT work is better than dealing with this issue.
    It may seem minor to some, but for a lot of us, it is very distracting and annoying.
    I keep hoping with each and every update that it's fixed, and am disappointed each and every update. 

  • Creating PDF in Word 2007 creates horizontal line

    Hello,
    This is my first post in this forum. In general, I have not had problems creating PDFs from Word 2003, or from Word 2007 - from either .doc or .docx documents.
    Yesterday, with one document, when I created a PDF, a centered horizontal line kept appearing near the top of the first 2 pages. These 2 pages
    have no header content. This line is NOT in the Word document. The rest of the PDF appears normal - with its normal header content.
    I think the problem is within Word 2007 (what a surprise!) because I can eliminate the problem by printing a .ps file of the Word doc and then
    distilling it.  The only problems with that method are that (1) It's more time-consuming, and - more important -  (2) the bookmarks are not
    automatically created. So, to create bookmarks manually takes even more time, and I don't know how to create the hyperlinks from the TOC
    (or even if that's possible).
    Any idea what's going on?  I tried making PDFs of some other user
    guides (same doc template), and they are fine.
    Many thanks!

    Hi again Raechel,
    It's such fun dealing with Word and "Microsloth", isn't it?!  IMHO, they
    should have left Office alone at the 2003 (or 2002?) versions.... Even at
    2000, styles were easier to deal with!
    Especially after using Madcap Flare for a few years, going back to Word is
    especially torturous.  I go back and forth from one to the other,
    depending on what I'm working on - product-wise or document-wise.
    Your Word certainly may have gotten corrupted, but even if that's not the
    case -- Word is still buggy as hell (forgive the minor expletive)!!
    Glad you made your printing deadline!!

    Creating PDF in Word 2007 creates horizontal line
    Melanie,
    I read your post, and decided to spend my evening figuring out what was
    going on.  You are right about it being related to the lines in the header
    and footers, but as my document had no headers and footers, I found that
    odd.  I tried to edit the styles without success.  Now isn't that odd,
    too?
    I had to delete the header and footer styles from my document in order
    to
    get rid of the lines.  I suspect my copy of Word became corrupted as I
    madly
    edited several documents, all with photos.  As my adult son pointed out,
    "well, they don't put their top programmers on Word, after all."  I
    checked
    my memory utilization, and it appears that Word isn't cleaning up after
    itself very well, so it loses track of some of its objects, and things get
    out of synch.
    Well, in the end I managed to re-produce my document, which is good,
    because
    it had to go to the printer last night before midnight, and it got there
    at
    11:40.
    Thanks for your help,

  • Equations in Word 2007 turns into horizontal lines

    This is something that has come up a lot lately. Documents written in Word 2007 which contains graphics such as equations get messed up when converting the documents to PDF. Instead of the equations, we only get horizontal lines.
    I've found several things that affect this behaviour:
    - It only happens in Windows XP
    - Word 2007, haven't tried 2010 yet
    - Acrobat 9.0 and Acrobat X
    It doesn't happen when printing to PDF, only via the Acrobat ribbon and via Save as Adobe PDF.
    I thought Acrobat X fixed this but it doesn't. Just upgraded. Any light on this?

    I have this problem, too. I am running Win XP, Office 2007, and Acrobat Pro 9.something.
    There is a detailed discussion of this here:
    http://acrobatusers.com/forum/pdf-creation/problem-converting-word-2007-equations
    They think it's a bug in a Microsoft patch. They offer a coupole of workarounds including printing to a PDF printer and saving the document as .doc.

  • Horizontal line using strobe effect

    Is there a way to stop the slow horizontal line movement using strobe effect. There is a slow horizontal line movement upward as the effect is blinking. Similar to how computer screens look when there in a video shot.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Sorry about the confusion. I was not sure what to call the "rolling sync bar", but that is what is showing up when I add the strobe EFX. And no...I do not want it to appear. I have set the strobe efx to show the under lying layer and I have also taken the Strobe efx off and set keyframes on the above layer to cut the opacity from 0 to 100 every 4 frames as to produce the same strobe efx. Both ways produce the unwanted rolling sync bar. I tried some bezier curve options on the keyframes, but no help...or at least I have not yet hit the correct combination.
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • Can't seem to draw a chart (line chart) using dates rather than numbers

    I'm trying to draw a Line Chart but rather using numbers i want to use dates for example: Switzerland 23/06/2008 - 23/08/2008. Can't seem to get it to work? it seems to all go wrong when I change the cell format to 'date'
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    PS. I can do it easily in Excel

    Hello
    From my point of view, it's not surprising.
    In XL, a date is a number to which a date format is applied. So, it may be charted.
    Same thing with the good old AppleWorks.
    With Numbers, a date is NOT a number, it IS a specific class of data.
    The consequence is that it can't be charted directly.
    Happily, we may easily convert a date into a number.
    In column B the formula is
    =A-$A$1
    which calculates the numeric difference between stored dates and the date stored in A1.
    So, we may chart the results.
    I know that it's far from perfect but we have to live with the choices made by Numbers's designers.

  • Any ideas how I can insert a pdf into word, using the insert object option. However the pdf i want to insert has text and lines annotated, but once inserted the comments don't appear????  any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You will need to find a forum for MS Word since that is the software that you are trying to manipulate in this.  If you think the processing/creation of the PDF plays a role then you should ask in the forum for the software that you are using to create the PDF.
    This forum is for issue regarding downloading and installing Adobe trial products, so in any circumstance, your issue does not fit in this forum.

  • Drawing connected direct lines using the mouse

    Hallo all,
    What I want to do is, to draw connected lines on a graph using just the mouse...
    First I will define min and max values for (x,y) -graph range- using the property node...
    Then using the mouse I want to draw frequency ramps over time like in FMCW modulation... For example it will just draw the ramps by connecting several points marked by my mouse clicks on the graph. Moreover I need the (x,y) values that I click on the graph...
    Thanks,
    Ogulcan

    Hmm, this does not sound very clear. Do you want the cursor to follow the mouse even when the mouse button is up. If you have multiple cursors, which one should be followed? What should happen if you move the mouse outside the window? How do you release the cursor from the mouse when done?
    I think it is much easier if you just drag the cursors via the normal mechanism. It is most direct and intuitive. See attached LabVIEW 7.1 example. For another example of moving points, have a look at this older thread..Message Edited by altenbach on 06-28-2005 10:13 AM
