Yesterday I was trying to batch convert a group of PPTs into PDFs for a friend, and I decided to have a look at PowerShell, since it's been sitting on my HD for a while. Here's the code I've come up with. $p = new-object -comobject powerpoint.application # I actually don't know why I have to set the window to visible, # but it doesn't work otherwise, anyway, it's not the real problem I have $p.visible = 1 $f = $p.presentations.open('\some\file.ppt') $f.ExportAsFixedFormat('\some\newfile.pdf', 2) 2 is for PDF Since the "brute force" method didn't work ("type mismatch") I tried to import the

I've been checking out what is possible with the Office Open XML specification for documents. I'm particularly interested in being able to add custom XML content to a document and binding it to content controls. I was wondering if it is possible to have a repeating content control type? For example, say I have some custom XML in my .docx file that looks like so: <Work> . . <People> <Person> <Name>Jane Doe</Name> <EmailAddress>jane@abc.com</EmailAddress> </Person> <Person> <Name>John Doe</Name> <EmailAddress>john@xyz.com</EmailAddress> </Person> </People> </Work> Is there any repeating content

Oki, so im working on outlook .msg templates. Opening them programmatically, inserting values base on what's in my db. ex. when i want to add multiple reciepients at "To" field, instead of doing as following, mailitem.To = a + ";" + b + ";" + c; i do whats below, which is simpler, especially when i'm doing it in a loop. mailitem.Recipients.add("a"); mailitem.Recipients.add("b"); mailitem.Recipients.add("c"); My problem is, i also want to add multiple recipients at "CC" field and the function above only works for "To" field. How can i add multiple recipients to "CC" field without having to do

I have a macro that generates an MS Word report from an MS Excel spreadsheet. The styles I use in the report are coded in English in the Macro. Some of my team have their MS Office display language set to France (this is not weird, I work in France). My macro thus doesn't work as the style title (in English) is used to set the styles. e.g. I'm telling MS Word to use style "List Bullet 1" whereas the corresponding style in MS Word is "Liste à puce 1" so no match is found. So my question is, how can I detect the MS Office display language and then set the style value in the correct language ?

What's the "best" way to read (just read) an Excel file from within an Access 2007 application. I only want to loop trough the rows and put the data into an Access table. I don't want a manually import (Get External Data dialog) but by VBA. The user gets a Form with a Browse button and then points to a Excel file with a defined content/format. After that the VBA code reads the data and puts it into the Access database. You could try the DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet method. DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, , "from_excel","C:\Access\demo.xls", True That imports spreadsheet data into a table
