Does an office app that uses PIA&VSTO need any user privilede to r tutu 10/9/2008 5:48:01 AM I'm developing as a non-administrator user in my domain. It's weird when I debug my app. for instance, -------- Word doc=null; .....(opens the document) for(int i=0;i<doc.Sentences.Count;i++){ object start = doc.Sentences[i].Start; object end = doc.Sentences[i].End; Word.Range rng = doc.Range(ref start, ref end); rng.Select(); } --------- I see doc.Sentences.Count=7, but when code runs next: object start = doc.Sentences[i].Start; It just throws an exception: " The requested member of the collection does not exist. at Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Sentences.get_Item(Int32 index)..." But the document does have multiple sentences. Why does this happen? Does PIA require administrator privilege as PIA interact with COM objects? Please help. Thanks.

I'm not sure what's happening, here... If you try something more like this: Word.Range rng = doc.Sentences[i]; //Sentence object returns a range Do you see anything different? > It's weird when I debug my app. > for instance, > -------- > Word doc=null; > .....(opens the document) > > for(int i=0;i<doc.Sentences.Count;i++){ > object start = doc.Sentences[i].Start; > object end = doc.Sentences[i].End; > > Word.Range rng = doc.Range(ref start, ref end); > rng.Select(); > } > --------- > I see doc.Sentences.Count=7, but when code runs next: > object start = doc.Sentences[i].Start; > It just throws an exception: > " The requested member of the collection does not exist. at > Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Sentences.get_Item(Int32 index)..." > > But the document does have multiple sentences.
