Hi All,

Currently i am using word application to generate a report from vb. VB application creates a new document and writes the content into the word document. While writing if the database value contain a new line character,the word format is not proper. Instead of a new line character word application displays some ascii characters. How to write new line character into word from vb. I am using Word 2000. It is working fine in word 97.

Has anybody done anything like this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

:)

have you tried sending a vbCr or vbCrLf? Cr =Carriage Return Lf=Line Feed

I, too am trying to put text into a word (2000) document from VB6.

I cannot get the Typetext Text:= & membvar to work.

TypeText doesn't recognize the Text:= param, let alone the memory variable. I can do anything on the Word menu system (FileOpen, etc...)
But I can't get text to type. What's up with that????

Thanks,

GVC

I used bookmarks as placeholders to write text to a word document. We use template documents (contracts) and we have to fill out various parts of it such as dates customer names and a table containing product and cost data. Maybe you could look at bookmarks if thats any help.
