MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / November 2003I need help reading/writing to the registry
Hello. In Word 2002, I have a macro that should store a person's name, fax number and telephone extension in the registry and another one that should be able to read that registry information into a userform whenever they create new correspondence. I can't seem to decipher the syntax for doing it. Could someone provide me with a code sample? TIA, Pat Hi Pat, The GetSetting and SaveSetting commands are designed for this sort of thing. There are code samples in the VBA Help file  SignatureRegards Jonathan West - Word MVP http://www.multilinker.com Please reply to the newsgroup Hello. In Word 2002, I have a macro that should store a person's name, fax number and telephone extension in the registry and another one that should be able to read that registry information into a userform whenever they create new correspondence. I can't seem to decipher the syntax for doing it. Could someone provide me with a code sample? TIA, Pat Thanks, Jonathan. It was easier than I thought it should be, but just in case someone is interested, here is more details. I designed a fax cover sheet and used userforms to capture not only who the fax was going to, but who it was from. The company has subsidiaries, so I needed to set up defaults by user that would write the person's name, company, phone and fax number and automatically display that information whenever they started a new fax cover sheet. I also needed to allow them to change the defaults whenever they needed. My save settings script was like this: SaveSettings "MS Word", "Private Templates", "FromName", FormName.txtFieldName I read the information with in the initialize event for the userform, FormName.TxtFieldName = GetSettings("MS Word", "Private Templates", "FromName") Thanks, Pat > Hi Pat, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > TIA, > Pat |
