Hi, I am a bit new to VBA, I figured out how to open a word document from xl vba by browsing online but I am facing hard time in searching for a particular text in the word document and updating it with a particular cell from my xl spreadsheet.
*Dim wrdDoc2 As Word.Document Set wrdDoc2 = wrdApp.Documents.Open("c:\temp\xyz.docx") With wrdDoc2 .Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory '** getting an error here saying object does not support this property or method but this code I copied from word by recording a macro* * .Selection.Find.ClearFormatting ** 'getting an error here saying object does not support this property or method but this code I copied from word by recording a macro* * .Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting With .Selection.Find .Text = "[Date]" .Replacement.Text = Trim(Workbooks("Contacts.xlsx").Sheets(1).Range(dateC & i).Value) .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = False .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False End With .Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll End With* Please let me know what is the correct way to code this. I am basically searching for "[Date]" in word file and replacing all "[Date]" values in word doc with a cell value from xl spread sheet. Please pass me on some code if you had worked on handling word from xl vba, it would be really helpful or me. Thanks in advance for your help, I really appreciate it.
