    Re: editing word document 2003

    If you want to loop through all the words in a document, use a for...each loop:

    Code:
    For Each sWord in wdDoc.Range.Words
        ' Change the font for sWord
    Next
    You can
    Code:
    Dim sWord as Word.Range
    Click "Rate This Post" if I helped you in any way.

    The best process for finding help.
    Step 1: Google it
    Step 2: Google it again
    Step 3: Google it yet again
    Step 4: Ask on a forum
    Step 5: Go to Step 1

    Question Re: editing word document 2003

    i use the following code

    Dim wrd As New Word.Application
    Dim dc As Word.Document
    Set dc = wrd.Documents.Open(pathtomyfile)


    For i = 1 To Word.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs.Count
    For Each w In Word.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs(i).Range.Words
    s = w.Text
    w.Text = convert_font(s)
    w.Font.Name = myfont
    Next w
    next i
    word.ActiveDocument.Save

    here convert_font is a function that returns a string... i want the text of each word in the document is replaced with the value return by convert_font and then set the font name to my regional language font....

    but it produce some wrong output in the document...

    plz help... i have tried everything

    Re: editing word document 2003

    if you want more help, post a sample document, to show original text and desired result, including code and function



    vb Code:
    1. For i = 1 To dc.Paragraphs.Count
    2. For Each w In dc.Paragraphs(i).Range.Words
    3. s = w.Text
    4. w.Text = convert_font(s)
    5. w.Font.Name = myfont
    6. Next w
    7. next i
    8. dc.Save

    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    Re: editing word document 2003

    i had already used it...it just convert the first word of the document again and again and goes to infinite loop...

    i m explaining here what i want to do...

    i have a word document which contain some text e.g

    abc defs asdrfhfs shdf dgfk
    dfjdf fgdfg fdghddf


    i want to convert the text in the document to look like..

    dfs dfgf dfgffgfg gfgf fgfg
    fgfgf fgfgg gfgfgffg


    the conversion is to be done by the function convert_font that looks like..

    Code:
    function convert_font( s as string) as string
    'some database queries
    ' and set the convert_font to legal converted string
    
    
    end function

    Re: editing word document 2003

    it looks as if you are trying to make a simple translator

    i am guessing because it makes no sence to pass a word to get it back unless it has changed

    and I am guessing you language requires very different shaped characters

    so...
    selecting whole document and then change font

    makes no sense to you

    are changing the whole document to a single font

    or

    are you changing a number of fonts into several different fonts


    here to talk

    i would sort of guess that the font you want to change to is a unicode type font, and you may need to use strconv to convert the returned sting to a unicode string before the unicode font can work with it
