time table : @6:53 the finished layout of the excel that will import the data from word @7:27 linking word doc for input and excel sheet for output @8:32 the coding of the vba
Does this work throughout a document? For instance if you have “contract date” in multiple places throughout the document, would it populate all of those fields?
Thank you for this! I have successful written the codes to execute my form using the control form button as you illustrated. Then, I also included a clear form macro to clear the contents, so that users could run the exportToWord macro repeatedly using different information. However, I cannot get the exportToWord macro to run again without completely closing out of the excel file and then re-opening. Is there any way to get around this? Some type of loop or call command? Or is there something I need to force closed to be able to do this?
He used auto instancing in Dim WordApp as New Word.Application So your clear contents command did not work. Solution: Declare the WordApp like this Dim WordApp as Word.Application Then write this code before WordApp.Visible =True Set WordApp = New Word.Application I hope this helps. I'm on my phone rn so I cannot test it myself.
Hi! Do you have any videos on how to create a customize ribbon on Visual Studio for PowerPoint Add-in where I can put different square colors where I click the square color and make it change a shape with that color? Same with a border color and text color?
