I have written some code VBA which copies data from Excel to Word when an Excel cell is clicked. The process is as follows:
1. Opens an already created word document, duplicates the word document, and then closes the original document; leaving open the copy (duplicate) for further modification.
2. The code then finds and replaces some placeholder values within the word document with values from the Excel document.
3. The code then deletes 2 different tables (1 at a time), row by row, and replaces each table (1 at a time) with a table copied from Excel.
4. The code then displays a message to the user that all has been completed and exits.
All code works perfectly on my PC, but fails on a colleagues MAC, stating the "Error: 4605 - Command is not available" and failing on the wrdApp.Selection.PasteExcelTable False, False, True
line of code.
Here's the code:
Sub Copy2Word()
Dim wrdApp As Object
Dim tempDoc As Word.Document
Dim mrgDoc As Word.Document
Dim NumPay As Integer
Dim cll As Excel.Range
'GET NUMBER OF PAYMENTS SELECTED FOR USE BELOW
NumPay = Notated.Cells(Data.Range("DV2").Value, Data.Range("DV3").Value).Value
'GET LOCATION OF WORD FILE FROM USER
FName = Application.GetOpenFilename
If FName = False Then
usrErr = 1
GoTo ErrHnd
End If
'RECORD THE WORD FILE LOCATION ON HIDDEN SHEET FOR USE BY OTHER MACROS
MergeData.Range("B2").Value = FName
'CREATE WORD OBJECT
On Error Resume Next
Set wrdApp = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
On Error GoTo 0
If wrdApp Is Nothing Then
Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
End If
'DISPLAY WORD APPLICATION
On Error Resume Next
wrdApp.Visible = True
wrdApp.Activate
On Error GoTo 0
'OPEN THE (TEMPLATE) FILE
wrdApp.Documents.Open Filename:=FName
'SET A VARIABLE TO REFERENCE ACTIVE DOCUMENT (TEMPLATE)
Set tempDoc = wrdApp.ActiveDocument
'DUPLICATE THE DOCUMENT
wrdApp.Documents.Add wrdApp.ActiveDocument.FullName
'SET A VARIABLE TO REFERENCE THE NEW VERSION OF DOCUMENT
Set mrgDoc = wrdApp.ActiveDocument
'CLOSE THE ORIGINAL (TEMPLATE) VERSION OF DOCUMENT
tempDoc.Close SaveChanges:=False
'ACTIVATE THE NEW DOCUMENT
mrgDoc.Activate
'REPLACE PLACEHOLDER TEXT ITEMS WITH ACTUAL
For Each cll In MergeData.Range(MergeData.Cells(1, 3).Address & ":" & MergeData.Cells(1, MergeData.Range("A1").End(xlToRight).Column).Address)
If cll.Offset(1, 0).Value = "" Then
repTx = cll.Value
Else
repTx = cll.Offset(1, 0).Value
End If
With mrgDoc.Content.Find
.Text = cll.Value
.Replacement.Text = repTx
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Format = False
.MatchCase = False
.MatchWholeWord = False
.MatchWildcards = False
.MatchSoundsLike = False
.MatchAllWordForms = False
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End With
Next cll
'REPLACE TABLE 2 ON WORD DOC
mrgDoc.Tables(2).Select
For ii = 30 To 2 Step -1
mrgDoc.Tables(2).Rows(ii).Delete
Next ii
wrdApp.Selection.TypeParagraph
'COPY AND PASTE TABLE 1 FROM EXCEL TO WORD
Application.CutCopyMode = False
EO_DOC.Range("EO_TBL_INSCOPE_1").Copy
wrdApp.Selection.PasteExcelTable False, False, True
''''REMAINDER OF CODE AND COMPLETION CONFIRMATION TO USER''''
End Sub
I have tried a bunch of different things such as adding DoEvents, etc. to see if it would remedy the situation but have not yet found a solution.
Any VBA for MAC gurus out there? Anyone?
Thanks in advance.
