Referencing other Office programs in a Excel VBA App
I din't like the way my previous post sounded, so i'm reposting...
All,
My Excel VBA programming is decent enough when I'm only working with
Excel.
However, I'm trying to expand my knowledge base and frequently I wish
I could better interact with other Office programs, such as Outlook,
in my Excel VBA apps.
To better illustrate my question, here's a piece of code that works
great (it populates a user form list with Outlook addresses) but I
don't fully understand.
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim x As Integer
Set objOL = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set olNS = objOL.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set myFolder = olNS.GetDefaultFolder(10)
Set myItems = myFolder.Items
myItems.Sort "FullName"
x = 0
For Each myContact In myItems
If TypeName(myContact) = "ContactItem" Then
If Len(myContact.Email1DisplayName) > 0 Then
ListBox1.AddItem
ListBox1.Column(0, x) = myContact.Email1DisplayName
ListBox1.Column(1, x) = myContact.Email1Address
x = x + 1
End If
End If
Next myContact
Set olNS = Nothing
Set objOL = Nothing
End Sub
My basic question is this: Can anyone suggest a good reference to
learn the uses and codes associated with objects, variables,
constants, etc..., which relate to programs outside Excel for use
within an Excel VBA app? For example, in the above code I do not
understand the precise usage of
GetNamespace("MAPI"), GetDefaultFolder(10), myFolder.Items,
Email1DisplayName, Email1Address, etc..., etc...
I don't like using code I don't understand for many obvious reasons.
Clearly, Email1DisplayName is a particular field in the OL Address
Book, but how do I learn what all of these fields are called? Where
do
I obtain syntax info for Outlook Object references? Etc.., Etc....I
think you'll all get what I'm asking.
Thanks, everyone!

Add a reference to the Outlook object model to your project
Tools, References, scroll down and tick "Microsoft Outlook x.0"
In your code declare your object variables as you would with Excel, eg
Dim objOL As Outlook.Application
Dim myItems As Outlook.Items
Dim myFolder As MAPIFolder
On Error Resume Next
Set objOL = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application")
On Error GoTo 0
If Not objOL Is Nothing Then
Set objOL = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
End If
Type a vraiable and you should start to see intellisence after the dot. Help
should become avilable too in the same was as it does in Excel.
Once done and tested you can convert back to 'Late Binding', uncheck the
reference, declare those objects 'As Object' and change any named Outlook
constants to their intrinsic values.
In passing, with Outlook I think generally better to start by trying to
reference the existing running Outlook, if any. Hence use of GetObject

Making PDFs in Office 2008
I wonder if the PDF saving capablities have improved in Office 2008. In 2004 the PDF Maker buttons (and commands) on the Mac version lacked support for Bookmarks. Only links in a TOC came through.

The Save as PDF dialogue in 2008 only produces a PDF with visual content, still no navigational features. I haven't tried reinstalling my Acrobat Pro (8) yet.

Making PDFs in Office 2008
I wonder if the PDF saving capablities have improved in Office 2008. In 2004 the PDF Maker buttons (and commands) on the Mac version lacked support for Bookmarks. Only links in a TOC came through. The Windows version offered much more of these options, like Bookmark derived from a document's structure (headings). The Save as PDF dialogue in 2008 only produces a PDF with visual content, still no navigational features. I haven't tried reinstalling my Acrobat Pro (8) yet. I'm not sure how Acrobat integrates with Word, but I would assume that it is through VBA, and in that case, it is...
Opening Office Files
I typically open my documents/excel files/power point by clicking on the file directly. Everytime I do I get the following message: "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Office Professional Hybrid 2007". This causes a long delay in opening the file and my previous system(XP) did not perform this task. My new system is Vista. I also have a problem every time I open Outlook, it starts installing Visio and PowerPoint. Any reason why it should do any of these? How do I alleviate these from happening? Thanks, -- Gevan "Gevan" <Gevan@discus...
Clip Art Gallery Issues (Office 2004)
Sorry if this has been discussed before, could not find anything in the newsgroup. I have attempted to download clip art from the Microsoft website and once downloaded to the desktop I cannot import it into the gallery. I open Word and go to insert -> Picture -> clip art and then import the file, and I get an error message stating " Attempt to open database file clipart failed" When I try to import by running the Clip Gallery application, it refuses to import because "it can only be run within office". Is there a workaround for this? Thanks in advance. R Burgos ...

Multiple excel users can open the same file and edit at the same .
We are running Excel 2002 SP2. We recently moved to a Windows 2000 server and now we are running into the issue where Multiple users can open the same excel file and edit it at the same time without getting the file the 2nd time in Read Only mode. Go to Tools>Share Workbook & choose the setting to Allow changes by more than one user. The file must also be stored in a Shared network/workgroup folder. Save the fil. It is also strongly recommended that you research the feature in Excel Help to become more familiar with it before you start sharing the file. HTH |:>) "Jef...
CRM on Office 2003
Hi everyone, Currently MS CRM is not supported on Outlook 2003. After installing the software and starting Outlook you get an error "Microsoft CRM folders cannot be installed". I found that every time I close and open Outlook (after saying no to not disable the add-in), 1 more folder is added to the Microsoft CRM Folders. I did this about 13 times and it added all the folders required. After that I could see the toolbar and it looks like everything is working fine.

Import from Excel to Windows live outlook
How to import contacts from an Excel Spreadsheet to Windows live Outlook No such animal as "Windows live Outlook". There is Microsoft Outlook, and you will find the option under File, Import and Export. And there is Windows Live Mail, and there you could probably look in Help or post your question to the Live Mail group. Either way, "Excel" isn't actually involved and isn't needed.

In Excel the Y axis title box cuts off the last letter.
The Y axis title box always cuts off the last letter no matter what type or size of font. It doesn't matter how many letters either 5 or 15, the last one is aways missing. A known bug (only some users experience it). Workaround: add some dots (.....) to end of the title and format them with font of the same colour as the title background. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "maggie" <maggie@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:0B698A36-4475-4DA3-A2B1-6DDCC9185E75@microsoft.com... > The Y axis title box al...

Decision Trees in excel
Help! How do I make decision trees in Excel? I know it's possible but can't find it anywhere. Thanks... That's not much info to work with, so you get a very generic answer: =IF(condition,result if true, result if false) condition can be something like A1<50 result can be a value or a formula (including another IF() function) I hope this helps. Post specifics with your questions, and you will get better answers. "Dani" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:077b01c3b6eb$979aa4d0$a001280a@phx.gbl... > Help!
