Automate Microsoft Word using AppleScript and VBA
Authored by: stevie02476 on Jul 08, '04 03:23:17PM
One thing I didn't mention in my submitted hint about Automating Word using AppleScript and Visual Basic, and should have, is what versions of things I was using. Here's my system, hardly the latest 'n greatest!

  • Mac OS X 10.2.8
  • Script Editor v1.9
  • Microsoft Word vX (v10.0.0 - 1316) from 2001!

    I truly don't know what effect using a newer version of any of these would have on my script. Also, I think Word has a lot of possible security settings (ranging from "risky" to "dangerous" I guess :) ) and I'm sure it's possible to have Visual Basic turned off or not even available. Good luck to everyone who goes down this path.
