OptionButton prob (Win2K/Off2K/XPP/OffXP)

Topic

New Reply

I have written a macro that uses the following code to insert or not insert specific text in a letter.

If OptButInclude.Value = True Then
Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:=”OtherFees”
Selection.TypeText Text:=txtOtherFees

ElseIf OptButExclude.Value = True Then
ChosenOption = “”
End If

When I run it on my machine, XPP/OffXP, it runs fine. However, I have one user running Win2K/Off2K on whose machine keeps getting a scripting error. She is getting a wee bit annoyed as when iot fails she has input a fair amount of information.

Can anyone help.

Check the references list in the IDE on her PC. I suspect she’s got a
MISSING: entry that corresponds to some XP level library. See if that’s it
and identify it then post back…

Can you post the exact error message? When you say “scripting,” is this something running from Outlook form VBScript to Word, or is it internal to Word?

Thanks Kevin and escher for replying so promptly (you guys must be like and start work real early, 6:30am).

One of the problems, I have now realised, was that the Win2K machine did not have the Calendar object loaded. I have overcome this by removing the “select date” function.

Attached are a couple of screen shots of the error message and one of the highlighted code.

I’m in California; you won’t catch me in the Lounge at 6:30AM!

Regarding the calendar control, if this is the DTPicker control from mscomct2.ocx, it is redistributable if you have Visual Basic or Office Developer. But that’s a lot of work if this is the only use of it…
