Saving a modified word document without user intervention

Dear Reader,
I have successfully opened a template (MS Word document), and
modified the bookmarks using DDE; however, now in attempting to
save the document without the user having to respond I am having
problems. I have attempted to use DDE.EXECUTE(ConvId,'[Save
()]',1000); but this drops into the VB debugger and nothing is
saved. If I remove the "[]" then an error occurs. If I attempt
to place something with the brackets () an error occurs within
the VB Debugger.
Looking for a simple coding example using DDE.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tina,
I would first suggest installing all available updates to his/her system and Office installation, including updating the video card driver to the latest version. Then try again.
Also try to do a Windows clean boot to determine if the issue was caused by any applications/services conflicts:

  • Generate a Report Dynamically without User Intervention and Output to XML

    Here's the scenario for which I am trying to find a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    I have a series of reports that the users generate from a UI by selecting the report, setting the values for a list of parameters, and then click a submit button. The report is generated in the UI for them to view. They can print it from here or export it to Excel.
    They would like to be able to schedule a report to run daily without user intervention using a saved set of parameters. The system would run the report automatically and email it to a defined set of email addresses.
    To do this, we need to have the report generated in a string or xml so a Java process can read it and email it.
    I see that I can change a report's template to export:xml so I feel that it is possible. How can I export a report to XML without user intervention? Can the report template be changd dynamically at runtime? Ideally, I need some way to call this same report and have it output as a string data or xml to be used by a Java process that would store and generate the report for email.

    Hi Kumar,
    From Program1 you are calling Program2, using submit syntax (inside Program1).
    While using submit, if you have correctly filled up the selection screen of program2, then it will AUTOMATICALLY get executed, WITHOUT F8.
    If there is any compulsary field in program 2, which does not get populated, then it will not run automatically, or unless some special code is written in program2.
    If you do not want the output of Program2 on screen, then u can use
    SUBMIT Program2 AND RETURN.
    In that case, no selection screen (of program2) will appear and neither the output of program 2.

  • Can You Play Multiple Playlists Without User Intervention

    Can you stack and play multiple playlists? ie if you had three playlists of 50 songs each, could you pick all three, play all the songs in the first playlist, when it is finished move automatically to the second playlist play its songs then automatically move to the third without user intervention? And if so, can you play each of these in shuffle mode?

    There's no "impromptu" method of doing so that I know of.
    As far as un-impromptu methods (it's always fun inventing words), it will depend on whether you want to listen to this mega-playlist on an iPod or just with iTunes.
    If it's just with iTunes, you can go to the File menu > New Folder command and create a new folder which we can call the Mega-Playlist folder. Drag the three playlists in question into that folder. When you select that folder and press Play, iTunes should go through all the songs.
    If it's on an iPod, since Folders don't transfer over from iTunes, the only solution I know of would be to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes that will -
    Match any of the following rules:
    Playlist is the first playlist +
    Playlist is the second playlist +
    Playlist is the third playlist.
    Synching this mega-playlist to your iPod will allow you to select it from the Playlist menu.
    Shuffle mode would shuffle songs from all three playlists together, not shuffle songs from the first playlist before moving on to shuffling songs from the second playlist before shuffling songs from the third playlist.

  • Animate elements one by one without user intervention

    Hi, Good Day,
    I have series of rectangles and textblocks on page.
    I need to show them moving at different places one by one according to the contents of textblock without user intervention.
    If I use for loop then it show movement of only last rectangle as I have to stop the storyboard in each iteration of loop.
    Is there any way to move these rectangles automatically one after another????
    sunaina

    A storyboard has a completed event.  I think that's the easiest way to handle this sort of requirement.
    You could chain them.
    So you get a reference to a storyboard, add a handler to it's completed event which starts the next storyboard...
    And start it.
    Obviously you will have storyboards which do something or other but here's how I attach anonymous completed eventhandlers to a storyboard:
    Storyboard sb1 = new Storyboard();
    Storyboard sb = new Storyboard();
    sb.Duration = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 1);
    sb.Completed += new EventHandler(delegate(object s, EventArgs a)
    sb1.Begin();
    sb.Begin();
    Hope that helps.

    Not sure if any of the alternatives to Office (word) for Mac are near the feature set you require.
    There are a few listed here at this page, in some ways aren't exactly like Office or Word; the feature you seek may (or may not) exist. I'd try & see about neooffice compatibility...

  • How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

    How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

    You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

  • Can a change be made to the original Word document without losing form fields in a saved PDF form?

    I have a new fillable form created with Acrobat 9 that has 10 pages of fields on it. I noticed a typo in the original Word doc I created the form from and wondered if there is anyway to make changes in the source document without having to recreate all fields again.
    Thanks!
    Frank

    Yes, just create a new PDF and replace the pages of the old one that has the form fields with the pages from the new: Document > Replace Pages
    Any fields, code, bookmarks, links, etc. will be retained.

  • Ipages converting word documents without prompt

    I sent a resume out yesterday and without knowing, ipages (which I never use) had converted my Word document (.doc) into a .pages document that is not readable to PC users. My impression is not recoverable for the position, but this is ridiculous, how do I get it to stop? Now, every time I open any document it tries to convert it by saving it a an ipages document. This is exactly why this software goes unused in my computer- it is not user friendly to the outside word beyond Mac. I bought it purely to convert docx docs to ipages so I can read them as an instructor.

  • HOw to download a file in background without user intervention?

    Hello people,
    A few hours ago I asked a couple of guys how to download a file to html. For that I am most thankful, and as mentioned this is a two part question, my other question is about how to proccess downloading the html in background and to automatically send it to a folder or other path. Without any user intervention.
    Example, I run a long report to be downloaded in background. The lets say the next day, I can get the file in a folder. Thanks guys take care!

    Hello guys thanks for your help so far. I have been off again on again with this task because its more for future purposes than anything.
    So far I have searched the net and stuff and decided that I will use WWW_LIST_TO_HTML since I want to download it the way it is. I am also going to use open/close dataset as many of you have mentioned.
    SO far Im just trying it out with a simple report program to see its funcitonalities. My code goes like this.
    <b>REPORT ZCCYT_COOL2 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING LINE-COUNT 100 .
    DATA: IFIELDS TYPE TABLE OF W3FIELDS WITH HEADER LINE.
    *DATA: ihtml   TYPE TABLE OF w3html   WITH HEADER LINE.
    DATA: IHTML   TYPE TABLE OF W3_HTML  WITH HEADER LINE.
    DATA: BEGIN OF I_TAB OCCURS 0,
            MATNR LIKE MAKT-MATNR,
            MAKTX LIKE MAKT-MAKTX,
          END OF I_TAB.
    SELECT-OPTIONS: SO_MATNR FOR I_TAB-MATNR.
    SELECT MATNR MAKTX
      FROM MAKT
      INTO TABLE I_TAB
      WHERE MATNR IN SO_MATNR..
    LOOP AT I_TAB.
      WRITE: / I_TAB-MATNR,
               I_TAB-MAKTX.
    ENDLOOP.
    CALL FUNCTION 'WWW_LIST_TO_HTML'
       EXPORTING
           list_index = sy-lsind
         TABLES
              HTML       = IHTML.
    DATA: FILE TYPE LOCALFILE.
    FILE = '/usr/test.html'.
    OPEN DATASET FILE FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
    LOOP AT IHTML.
      TRANSFER IHTML TO FILE.
    ENDLOOP.
    CLOSE DATASET FILE.</b>
    NOw the problem now though is that the file isnt downloading or saving at all. I cant seem to get what is wrong since the path does exist and the this seems the universal way to implement the program. Im guessing the problem lies in the file name, because everything seems to work fine. Hope to hear again soon sorry for not visiting this place sooner cuz I was buzy elsewhere.

    I generally use 4 spaces and I've noticed on Mavericks apps will not stay ont he same space they are assigned too. I've also noticed designated spaces switching without any user intervention. For example "Desktop 3" and "Desktop 4" switch places and 4 will become 3 and visa versa. Has anyoen else encountered this?
