Calling Word to run VBA with parameters
I am producing an application within PeopleSoft that I need to make a call to windows and initiate a word document that will run a macro upon startup. I can do this piece, no problem the trick is, I want to pass in parameters similar to:
word.exe MakeDoc.docx "doc0001" "sysadm" "password"
where the last three terms are parameters that the VBA will utilize. Does anyone know how to take these parms into the VBA macro?
Thanks.
Jeff

Re: Calling Word to run VBA with parameters
this is considerably more difficult to do, it requires to use getcommandlineex API
i may have some example (will look later), but there should be example this forum, else google can help

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
