Hi:
I am attempting to do the following from within excel 1. Open a word document 2. Search on a specific Style. 3. Copy the text found associated with that style into excel. I am able to do this for the first Style search but for subsequent searches, it finds the same style twice. I am able to work around this issue by closing the word document after each search and re-opening it. However, this is quite time and resource expensive. Any suggestions? Here is a snippet of my code that causes duplicates (without closing word document) Sub CopyFromWord() Dim wrdApp As Object ' Note: Using late binding (as opposed to Dim wrdApp AS Word.Application) due to a bug ' Details at http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=292744 Dim wrdDoc As Object Dim IsWordRunning As Boolean Dim row As Integer IsWordRunning = ApplicationIsRunning("Word.Application") If IsWordRunning = True Then Set wrdApp = GetObject(, "Word.Application") Else Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application") End If wrdApp.Visible = True Set wrdDoc = wrdApp.Documents.Open("D:\temp\SBS_Enhancements_PD SN_List.doc") wrdApp.Selection.Find.ClearFormatting wrdApp.Selection.Find.Style = "Requirement" With wrdApp.Selection.Find .text = "" .Replacement.text = "" .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = True End With row = 0 Do While wrdApp.Selection.Find.Execute = True row = row + 1 Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(row, 1).Value = wrdApp.Selection.Range.text Loop wrdApp.Selection.Find.ClearFormatting wrdApp.Selection.Find.Style = "Conditional Requirement" With wrdApp.Selection.Find .text = "" .Replacement.text = "" .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = True End With Do While wrdApp.Selection.Find.Execute = True row = row + 1 Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(row, 1).Value = wrdApp.Selection.Range.text Loop wrdApp.Quit ' close the Word application |
