MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / September 2005Howto query the template a document is based on?
Hi, is there a way to query the template a document is based on (normal.dot, letter.dot, custom.dot etc...) from a vba-addin-code? Yes. But I simply use a Template field in the document  SignatureCharles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Thanks for reply, but this solution won´t work for me. I need to execute a macro everytime somebody in our company creates a new document but not if he opens a self-made or global template-file. If I select Insert -> Field there is a Field-Function { TEMPLATE \* MERGEFORMAT } that returns normal.dot (or the template name). But I haven´t found a way to access this value from my macro, yet. > Yes. But I simply use a Template field in the document Try ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.FullName including the full path or ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.FullName for the Template only. Last one should be ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.Name. Thanks a lot, Joost! I searched for something like that in the View->localwindow, but in the Tree ActiveDocument isn´t something like AttachedTemplate. A litte bit undocumentated? > ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.Name
