Word Userform Issue
Lumpjaw <moc.swen[ at ]news.com> 18.09.2006 21:55:51
Hello all,

I am working on a project where I get user information via a Word
userform. This form then opens several other Word forms, one at a time
and writes some data, saves and closes. Is there a way to speed up the
process by not having every form open then write and then close? I am
doing this with about a dozen forms right now. Thanks for the tip.

I guess that you mean that you are opening several other Word documents...

If all you are doing is recording information in those documents, perhaps
you can use Custom Document Properties to store that info and DOCPROPERTY
fields to display it in the documents.

The advantage is that you can access (read/write) the document properties
without opening the Word document, which should speed up your process.

Jean-Guy,

i need to claify myself; Document A records information from the user, and
in turn this information is written into 10 other documents. Can this be
done with this control that you have suggested? I already have all of my
fields as DOCPROPERTY fields in all of my documents, Thanks.

Yes. DSOFile can be used through VBA as well as VB.
