Hi Blair,
I'm trying to extend the IDispatch examples to get Word to create and print
a document - it's almost working. One interesting thing is that I'm getting
a walkback (stack inserted below) whenever I try to inspect either the
'ActiveDocument' property, or an instance variable that (I think<g>) should
hold the same thing. Perhaps it's as simple as the document doesn't have
type info, or maybe it's not properly down cast, etc.
It appears not to be caused by my hot fix to #onTypeInfo:; the problem
persists if I comment out the inserted #asParameter and fire up another
instance of Word. However, there might still be something tied either the
current Dolphin or Windows session???
So far, I can paste a string into a new document (no formatting yet, but,
that's ok) and get it to print to the default printer. The fun started when
I wanted to look at the IDL to figure out whether I can invoke the print
dialog to choose the printer. That's optional, so it might be time to
concentrate on building useful content into the document.
Have a good one,
Bill
