I found the answer: chNewDoc:fields:update. /* Save the result of the Word merge. */ chWordApp:ActiveDocument:SaveAs("C:\Windows\Temp\" + save-as-name). chNewDoc:CLOSE(FALSE). /* Brian from Progress. */ RELEASE OBJECT chDoc. RELEASE OBJECT chMerge. RELEASE OBJECT chNewDoc...

I have a problem related to saveas. In the following code, I merge a document and then save it on my hard drive. (This savved document is attached to an email in other code. All this works fine. The problem is that if there are 100 letters merged and saved, then the user then has 100 open Word...

DEFINE VARIABLE chOutlook AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. DEFINE VARIABLE chmail AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. ... CREATE "outlook.application" choutlook NO-ERROR. ASSIGN chmail = chOutlook:createItem(0). /* Create email. */ ASSIGN chmail:Subject = subject chMail:Body = body...

I am using a progress program to create emails. That is working, but I need a further refinement: I want the Progress program to specify the sender of the email . Some of my code: ASSIGN chmail:Subject = subject chMail:Body = body chMail:BCC =...

I was given this code. So tell me please, what order should things be in?

I know it is saving the document because the document saved under that name is open on my PC. It would be better if the user did not have to close the document. It is used in creating another merge document, all of which needs to be a transparent to the user as possible. I have tried...

Sorry to say, none of these work either.

I am sorry to say that neither of these actually closes the saved document. What they do is leave another instance of word running with nothing open in it. (If that gives you any kind of clue.) Any other ideas? Thx

In a Progress program, I save a Word document (from a merge) chWord:ActiveDocument:SaveAs( file-name-var ) Now this Word document is open on my PC. Is there a way that from the Progress program that I can close this document? Thanks DEFINE VARIABLE chWordApp AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO...

Here is the code I am using. DEFINE VARIABLE chWordApp AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. DEFINE VARIABLE chDoc AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. DEFINE VARIABLE chMerge AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. DEFINE VARIABLE chNewDoc AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO. &GLOBAL-DEFINE wdSendToNewDocument 0 CREATE "Word.Application"...

I have asked this before. I would be most grateful if I could see a Progress example of how to do this. Thanks. I am doing a Word merge from a Progress program. When I put a merge variable in the heading, the merge does not put a value in it. The merge variables in the body work fine. Funny...

Thanks, it works fine.

I am doing a Word merge from a progress program. That works fine, but I need a way to save the merge result from the program. In the program it would save it as "c....mergeresult.docx". Is there a way to do this? Thanks

That works just fine. Thanks a lot.
