Text, then table, then more text and table and final text

Adrian Radoi · #1 03-11-2020, 03:32 PM

I am trying to build a word document from excel. basically the excel table just takes values and transfers them into the word document.

Currently I created part of it but somehow the cursor gets stuck at the first table and the second table is inserted in the first one.

The format I am trying to look for is.

Text.

Table
Text
Table
Ending Text

HEre is my code so far.

Code:

Option Explicit

 

Sub CreateBasicWordReport()

 

    Dim wdApp As Word.Application

    Dim objRange

    Dim objDoc

    Dim Cell

    Dim NewRange

 

    Set wdApp = New Word.Application

   

    

    With wdApp

         .Visible = True

         .Activate

        

         .Documents.Add

               

                With .Selection

                     .ParagraphFormat.Alignment = wdAlignParagraphCenter

                     .BoldRun

                     .Font.Size = 11

                     .TypeText "Letter to Proceed with Transfer"

                     .TypeParagraph

                     .Font.Size = 11

                     .TypeText "Determination of Transfer Value and Request for Transfer"

                     .TypeParagraph

                     .TypeParagraph

                     .TypeParagraph

                    

                     .ParagraphFormat.Alignment = wdAlignParagraphLeft

                    

                

                End With

               

          

                

        End With

     

      Set objRange = wdApp.ActiveDocument.Range

      objRange.Collapse Direction:=wdCollapseEnd

     

      wdApp.ActiveDocument.Tables.Add objRange, 4, 2

You should create the basic layout as a Word template so that when you create the initial document, it already contains the standard content and formatting.

Set objDoc = .Documents.Add(sPathToTemplate)

If your template already contained all the elements your code creates then the rest of the code you showed is actually not needed. You would then use code to bring in the Excel content itself.

My template is not static. Doesn't that change things?

There should be an 3 if conditions that change the output the text at the middle and end of the document.

I have already responded to that in your cross-post...

I appologize i am quite new you are correct.

Add or delete bookmarks in a Word document or Outlook message - Office Support

Would I proceed to add bookmarks in this manner?

macropod · #7 03-11-2020, 10:12 PM

Yes, that's how you might create one for your template, but the GUI approach for accessing them isn't what you'd use in VBA. There are many VBA examples here showing how you'd do that. Do a search on: UpdateBookmark
