wxautomation

Anyone trying to automate MS Word thru wxautomation successfully? Got all working (thanks Ian!) except for syntax to close a document without saving. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Jean Vallee

may be helpful. We still use WordPerfect.

If you search back on this board, you will find that a couple years ago I
addressed that issue on this board. I wound up concluding that
wxautomation did not support a number of things I needed, so I wound up
building a piece of Visual Basic "middleware" that handled what needed to
be done. I posted the code here.

Came up with the answer finally. You have to lie to Word by telling it
it is already saved.

wxautomation1var.putproperty(property="Saved",error=e,"True")

Then you can close and it will not save your changes.
