Hello
i have an application that use automation to open word using a specified-personalized word template, filling it with osme data trough Word bookmarks. Anythign was fine until i decided to move from early binding to late bindign because i'm working on upgrading this application and i haven't word2000 (i have XP) while my clinet has. So i rcan reference on my machine only word 10.0 library, while my client needs word 9.0. To solve this issue i decided to try late binding
The problem is that runnning the code below give me an error (#429) saying" Activex component can't create the object
Any suggestion

thanks
rocc

here is the code i have used:______________________
Dim objword As Objec
Set objword = CreateObject(" Word.document"
With objwor
.Visible = Fals
.Documents.Add ("\\server\dati\preventivi\preventivo.dot"
.Visible = Tru
End With
 
You have a space before Word.Document. Also, I think you'll need to
instantiate the Word.Application object....then set your document.

Hello,
if this really is the code you're using than
type "Word.Document" instead of " Word.document"
in other Words no blanks in front.

Thanks...
there's some improvement...now the code stop at the first line of this code:

..Visible = False
..Documents.Add ("\\server\dati\preventivi\preventivo.dot")
..Visible = True
sayinf: "object doesn't support this property or method.
i was supposed to code trough late binding exactly the same as in early binding (exepct for the line of code with declarations).

thanks for futher suggestions

the With object is an active document, and so it cannot be hidden. Try
hiding the Application object.

Thanks
i have tried also making the lina as comment, just to see if next code will run properly...nope.
It stop on the next line
Documents.Add ("\\server\dati\preventivi\preventivo.dot"
with the same error message..
i'm going crazy..
 
Use Word.Application:

Dim strDok As String
Dim objword As Object
strDok = "\\server\dati\preventivi\preventivo.dot"
Set objword = CreateObject("Word.Application")
With objword
.Visible = False
.Documents.Add strDok
.Visible = True
End With

Documents.Add ("\\server\dati\preventivi\preventivo.dot")
with the same error message...

As Heiko says, this is a method of the Application object, not the
Document.
