Can any one tell me how to convert older versions of Word documents to present version.
You should be able to just open them in the new word and then when you go to save them it will ask if you want to have them in the old file version or upgrade to the new version. If you want to learn how to do this using code, record a macro of you doing this then look at the code that was created in the Visual Basic Editor.
Hi numtel,
What do you mean by record a macro? How can we do that in Visual Basic can you please explain me this or give me link for this tutorial.
numtel means that , in Word go to Tools > Macro > Record a New Macro.
Do you file save as a different version, then stop the recording. Then in the
VBE view the code in the Modules section.
The code is almost the same as if you were going to do it from VB, minus the
code to start Word and open the document.
