Hi....I have code which copies table information from word in to an excel spread sheet....see below....with the current script you have to select the word document but I would like it to pull the information from any word document that is open (this is opened from an e-mail attachment and there will only ever be on word document open at a time). The excel spread sheet where the data is copied to will always be open. How easy or not is this to do? The other alternative could be I that the word document is saved to a temporary file which this script calls.
Sub ImportWordTabletest()
'Import all tables to a single sheet
Dim wdDoc As Object
Dim wdFileName As Variant
Dim TableNo As Integer 'table number in Word
Dim iRow As Long 'row index in Word
Dim jRow As Long 'row index in Excel
Dim iCol As Integer 'column index in Excel
wdFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Word files (*.doc),*.doc", , _
"Browse for file containing table to be imported")
If wdFileName = False Then Exit Sub '(user cancelled import file browser)
Set wdDoc = GetObject(wdFileName) 'open Word file
With wdDoc
If wdDoc.tables.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "This document contains no tables", _
vbExclamation, "Import Word Table"
Else
jRow = 0
For TableNo = 1 To wdDoc.tables.Count
With .tables(TableNo)
'copy cell contents from Word table cells to Excel cells
For iRow = 1 To .Rows.Count
jRow = jRow + 1
For iCol = 1 To .Columns.Count
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.Cells(jRow, iCol) = WorksheetFunction.Clean(.cell(iRow, iCol).Range.Text)
On Error GoTo 0
Next iCol
Next iRow
End With
jRow = jRow + 1
Next TableNo
End If
End With
Set wdDoc = Nothing
End Sub
Some guidance would be much appreciated
