MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / May 2006Office 2007 & Ole Automation
Hello, Just playing around with the beta release and I was wondering if there is a trick to get ole automation working in the new version? We have a database application that we've interface into Word to merge data from our Application into a Word document. The new 2007 Word runs perfectly under our Application, however when we try to merge data the "bookmarks" (fields) are not updated. Is there something new we need to be aware of? Thanks much for any help. Love the new UI, can't wait to get into it a little deeper! We would need to see the code that you are using. The Visual Basic Fields.Update command certainly works as in previous versions of Word. I have not had any issued with running any of my applications under Office 2007.  SignatureHope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Documents that I am attempting to create in Word 07 do not merge. OUr program runs but the "bookmarks" do not update. I think it's a compatibility issue of some sort. > We would need to see the code that you are using. > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > Thanks much for any help.

Access is not in the mix. The database is "Advantage Database Server". I did find a work around. If I create a file and then save it back in 2003 format, and then reopen it my "bookmarks" populate as expected. We'll have to figure this compatability issue out before the final release of Office 2007, however I'm sure its the new file format that is not getting along with your program. I do appreciate your help. > Need more information to be able to help. > [quoted text clipped - 38 lines] > >> > Thanks much for any help.

I am not sure what code your are using to populate the bookmarks, but ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("test").Range.InsertBefore "This is a test" works in documents created from both dotx and dotm templates SignatureHope this helps.
