Hi, I am currently exporting a module into MS word in table format. I will be exporting into a specific document template (not normal.doc) but I would like to export to a particular place in the template. The location could be identified by section number or a specific textual or other tag placed into the template. I have looked into word.dxl trying to find a method of setting the injection point but have had no success. Can anyone suggest a method if importing to a sepecific location in a word template? Many thanks for any help suggested. Kind regards Patrick patrickAtWork - Fri Oct 17 06:16:27 EDT 2014 |
Re: Export into MS Word at specic location in document I would say, that you insert a bookmark "DOCSTART" into the Word template, but then you would have to adapt the word.dxl to issue a find to set the cursor to the bookmark location, before actually starting the export. The VBA code for this would be: Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:="DOCSTART" Should not be to complicated. If you need help, just come back here ... Regards, Mathias |

Many thanks for your answer, it looks exactly what I need. I have been diverted to another project so it will be a week or so before I get back to this. Looking at word.dxl I think that I would have to set the cursor inside thefunction: "moveFromTempDocToDestinationDoc()" template. Can you advise if you think that this is agood place to start? A second but related question when doing an export to word the process appears to copy the content extracted to a temporary document then to the destination document? Is this correct? many thanks Patrick |
