How to View Word 2013 Document in ActiveX Object

I know that the old method of viewing Word docs was to use a webbrowser object.  This doesn't work now since the document opens in word instead.  MS has a workaround, but suggests not to use it for new projects(it involves changing the registry and I'llbe distributing this app to other machines so this isn't an option).  I'd like to know if why webbrowser2 doesn't show up as a usuable ActiveX object in LabVIEW 2012 and if anyone knows how to use the Word document object so you can scroll and navigate a word document.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks, But that doesn't help when there are figures(pics) in document. As A workaround, for now, I have switched to rtf files.  The attachment shows what I was trying to achieve except I had to save the word document as a rtf document and load it into a rich text document container (found under .NET & ActiveX).  This preserves formatting and pcitures whereas the method above does not.  I still think this is not optimal as in older versions of MS Office, this was done easily as shown in the Diagram Disable Structure.
Thanks.

  • How to repair a corrupted word 2013 document?

    Yesterday I was working on a very important Microsoft Word (2013) document, when it suddenly crashed. Upon trying to reopen the file Word said: “The
    file is corrupted and cannot be opened”. I have tried all of the other methods of restoring it, such as opening it in a different program, or opening it and choosing "open and repair" in MS Word.

    When a Word document file is corrupted, then you can try several methods to recover it:
    1. First of all, you can try the recovery function integrated with Microsoft Word, as follows:
    1) On the File menu, click Open.
    2) In the Look in list, click the drive, folder, or Internet location that contains the file that you want to open.
    3) In the folder list, locate and open the folder that contains the file.
    4) Select the file that you want to recover.
    5) Click the arrow next to the Open button, and then click Open and Repair.
    You may find more information about this at:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/recover-the-text-from-a-damaged-document-HP005189610.aspx (for Word 2003)
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/893672/en-us (for Word 2007/2010/2013)
    2. Second, since Word 2003, it provides a "Document Recovery" or "AutoRecover" mechanism so that when Word is shutdown abnormally, the Word file being edited will be recovered when Word is launched next time, which makes the file recovery possible.
    See below:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316951/
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827099/

    for more detailed information.
    3. If 1 and 2 does not work, then you may try third-party tools such as DataNumen Word Repair at
    http://www.datanumen.com/word-repair/
    It provides a free demo version so that you can try to see if the data you want can be recovered or not.
    Good luck!

  • How to view Word DOC using Word Viewer

    I am a new administrator for a SharePoint 2010 farm with 10s of GB of Microsoft Word documents, most of which are in Word 97-2003 DOC format.  I have recently configured the Word Viewing service and can of course view Word 2010 documents saved
    to the farm, but how to get the legacy archive of DOCs viewable using Word Viewing as well?
    From all that I have read, OWA only works for Office 2010 documents.  Is there any tweak available to get it to be able to view older formatted Word documents also in the browser?
    Baring this, are there batch conversion utilities available?  I have searched and found some
    here and here, but am seeking more robust solutions.
    I would be interested in learning about what other administrators have done to resolve similar problems.
    Sincerely,
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I understand that the error occurred when you open the word files.
    I recommend to delete the cache files for the corresponding web aaplication using PowerShell.
    Go to Central Administration > Application Management > View all site collections > select the web application and then check for site collection with URL /sites/Office_Viewing_Service_Cache and make sure it is there. Then open http://{webapp url}/sites/Office_Viewing_Service_Cache
    and you will see the cached
    files of this web application.
    You can also add the entry below in web.config to see if the issue still occurs:
    <compilation optimizeCompilations="true">
    More information:
    http://kancharla-sharepoint.blogspot.in/2013/08/sharepoint-word-web-app-cannot-open.html
    I also recommend to check the event log and ULS log to see if anything unexpected occurred.
    To check event log, click the Start button and type “Event Viewer” in the Search box.
    For SharePoint 2010, by default, ULS log is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS.
    Best regards.

  • Removing Ink from Word 2013 document

    Hi there
    I have a word 2013 document with ink markings on it and I am finding it difficult to delete or remove them. I do not have a tablet or stylus, and am finding it impossible to remove these stubborn ink markings. Any help would be appreciated, I have already
    tried creating a "delete all ink" macro per an often cited YouTube tutorial, with no luck.

    Hi,
    Ink for Word is an addon to Microsoft Word that brings enhanced annotation support to Word documents.
    Have you tried the option of Reject All Changes and Stop Tracking under REVIEW tab?
    On the Review tab, in the Tracking group, click the arrow next to
    Show Markup, select Ink. Then in Changes
    group, click Reject All Changes and Stop Tracking or Accept All Changes and Stop Tracking in
    Accept and Reject list.
    Please have a try and feel free to post back.

  • Is there a way to programmatically save a Word 2013 document into a Word 2010 in compatibility mode?

    Hi,
    I have a Word 2013 document that I want to open in Word 2010.  The problem is this document has a repeating section content control and if I open it in Word 2010, the content control is removed so the data won't be seen.  Is there any way programmatically
    to save the document in Word 2010 compatible mode?  So that I can open in both Word 2013 and 2010.  By the way, I'm using C# and OpenXML for this.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Based on my tested, I created a "Rich Text" content control in Word 2013, and it'll works fine in Word 2010.
    As far as I know, in Word 2013, content controls provide three key improvements: improved visualization, support for XML Mapping for Rich Text content controls, and a new content control for repeating content.
    Please see the article "What's new with content controls in Word 2013" it may be helpful to you.
    If you have any further question about coding/programing, please post your question to MSDN forum.

  • How to view the DDL script prior to object deployment in OWB 10g R2?

    How to view the DDL script prior to object deployment in OWB 10g R2?
    Here is what I' looking for: in 10gR2, let's say I've built dimension X, but it's not deployed yet. I've selected one of the deployment options, let's say: "Deploy to Catalog only". Now, I'd like to see a DDL script that will be executed at the deployment time. Where can I find this script? What screen? What menu?
    Thanks,
    vr

    Viewing the Scripts
    After you have generated scripts for your target objects, you can open the scripts and
    view the code. Warehouse Builder generates the following types of scripts:
    ■ DDL scripts: Creates or drops database objects.
    ■ SQL*Loader control files: Extracts and transports data from file sources.
    ■ ABAP scripts: Extracts and loads data from SAP systems.
    To view the generated scripts:
    1. From the Generation Results window, select an object in the navigation tree on the
    left of the Generation Results dialog.
    2. Select the Scripts tab on the right of this dialog.
    The Scripts tab contains a list of the generated scripts for the object you selected.
    3. Select a specific script and click the View Code button.

  • Microsoft Word 2013 Documents open as full version documents on two computers sporadically

    Hello,
    We have a customer site with a perplexing problem that occurs very sporadically.
    Our customer has a large word document called “Green Book” that tracks all customer jobs, new, pending and completed in a large tabled document that can sometimes span up to 300 pages. Yes we are aware we probably should convince the customer to run an Access
    database but have not had the expertise in-house to date to date to do this but that is off the scope of this topic for now….
    The problem that is driving our customer (and us) nuts is that user A will open Green book quite happily, user B will turn up to work some 3 hours later and get a full read / write version of the document. If user B opens up the document immediately or within
    a few minutes of user A the document will predicably come up with a “this document is in use by user xx” and give the end user an option to open the document as read only which would be fine if only this would work that way every time.  Having a second
    user open Green book inadvertently as read / write creates pandemonium when two users have conflicting edits to the document as they both think they have the original.
    Every time our techs have been onsite we’ve been unable actually reproduce the problem for ourselves mainly because we seldom get three spare hours to wait and the office is flat out during business hours with end users reluctant to spare their machines
    at the best of times…
    The problem extends only to this file, no connectivity problems to other files, email or internet surfing have ever been reported so can only assume the core network is solid.
    In a nutshell here is a summary of our customer’s network configuration that was part of a network upgrade done at the beginning of May this year:
    N.B. all hardware (BIOS / firmware), operating systems and software has all been patched up to the latest possible versions both on desktop and server level.
    HP Proliant ML350 Gen8 Server – 48 GB RAM, 2 TB RAID 10 10K SAS drives on a smart Array P400i
    HP server runs Microsoft HyperV 2012 R2 (latest updates applied)  and runs two guest OS:
    SBS 2011 Server (32 GB RAM) that acts as File Server (that originally shared Green Book) / Exchange server
    Windows Server 2012 R2 – RDS / Terminal Server (12 GB RAM) (this server now shares Green book)
    Trend Micro Worry Free Advanced Version 9.0 in use with real time scan disabled on servers but enabled on desktops.
    New late model HP Procurve Gigabit switch installed.
    Desktop Computers are HP EliteDesk 8300 Computers running Windows 8.1 Pro / Office 2013 Home and Business on 4 GB RAM.
    In a nutshell here is a summary of the troubleshooting steps / workarounds all unsuccessfully attempted to date:
    Ensured Green Book from is saved in latest DOCX format not legacy .DOC format
    Turned off server auto-disconnect (done on server not workstations) after 15 minutes feature on  Windows server to rule out disconnected sessions giving User B’s computer a false impression it is the only user with access to Green Book    
          http://  Support.microsoft.  com/kb/297684
    With above setting in effect I’ve instructed an end user to leave a document open for over an hour and do a
    net files command on the SBS file server to confirm that user A still had a session lock on that file (which they did) to rule out a disconnect giving user B’s computer a false impression it had an exclusive access lock on the file.
    Opportunistic locking on server has been disabled.
    Setup a dedicated server with a connection limit of one user at a time to each of these “sensitive files”. Quickly abandoned this as it was more trouble than  it was worth getting user to close Word to release file lock despite document being closed.
    Moving Green book from SBS  server to a shared folder on Windows 2012 R2 terminal server (no auto disconnect parameter set). Still has the same problem!
    In desperation I’ve setup remote desktops for all affected users and put shortcuts on desktop a local C drive copy of Green book. Because it looks different to their desktop and Word is slow anyway users objected and I was forced to allow end users again
    to open green book again from their individual servers.
    What did the customer run before and what were the issues with Green Book?
    Customer ran a Dell PowerEdge T300 Server with 8 GB of RAM and 600 GB mirrored SATA drives on SBS 2008 and Dell workstations running Windows XP SP3 / Office 2007.
    Green Book was always slow because of Word being very slow with 300 + pages of tabled information.
    No file sharing / locking issue as reported above was ever reported.
    If anyone can share any experiences on this or shed any light on the problem we would be eternally grateful…

    I quoted this from your cross-post, by MVP Paul Edstein.
    "Your description suggests a network problem, with the
    networking software losing track of the fact the file is already
    open.
    That said, you might find it useful to store documents intended for
    shared editing in a OneDrive folder. This is designed to allow two or more
    people can edit a word document concurrently.
    Once you have OneDrive
    operational, click OneDrive in the header of a SharePoint or Office 365 site,
    then click the ellipsis (…) to the right of the entry. Then click ‘Share’ and
    invite the other user to view or edit the document, and click ‘Share’ once more.
    To add to the list of people already sharing a document, click the ‘Shared with’
    icon in the ‘Sharing’ column and invite the additional person to view or edit
    the document, and click ‘Share’ once more.
    When someone invites you to
    share a document, you’ll typically receive an email notification with a link to
    the document. Clicking the link opens the document. If you have edit permission,
    your changes are automatically saved.

  • RoboHelp 9 not generating Word 2013 document

    I am trying to generate a Word document (Word 2013) from RH9. It goes through the generation process and just before it would normally offer to view the result (the Word document) the following message appears:
    'A supported version of Microsoft Word does not exist. Please install Microsoft Word 2000 or newer'
    Any ideas greatly appreciated.

    That will be because you are not using a supported version.
    Rh11 is the only version that supports 2013. You may find that if you right click the print layout and select properties, then you will be able to generate but no other way will work. You will not be able to import Word documents.
    You can have both 2010 and 2013 installed if you have the licences. Just run 2010 before using it with Rh.

  • Multiple users, same color in Word 2013 document

    A document that was uploaded to a content management system, downloaded and worked on by other users who exchanged the document via e-mail, then uploaded again, had the same color for two users after being downloaded once more. The two users still had the
    same color after I shut everything down and logged back in again. All other users (there were about six in all) had individual colors.
    How can I fix this problem, so that each user has a separate color--not just four users having separate colors and two users sharing a color? There certainly were colors that were not in use in the document (green, yellow, silver, etc.).
    Because the document resided in a content management system, I was referred to this forum instead of the more general Word 2013 forum. Any help would be very much appreciated!

    Hi,
    I'm not sure what color it is in your post, font color or else?
    Please also explain the user's process to handle the document, if possible, step by step, so that I can have a better understanding.

    Please take a look at the following which should display the document
    tab in QM02 and QM01.
    Use the transaction QCC2 to enter the notification customizing.
    -> Notification Creation

          -> Define Screen Templates
             - Define Screen Areas and Tabs -> Press Choose
               Now select the notification type where would like to have

               Select a tabstrip, view the details (Ctrl + shift + F2) and
               add the screen area 092 to it.
    This allows a connection to the DMS-system in notifications.
