Insert Data in Word Bookmarks

Question

Hello,

I am trying to find bookmarks I set in MS Word 2007 so that I can replace form field with text via C# (Visual Studio .NET 2003).  When I write the code, I don't see the methods that I have seen in many examples on the web.

objDocument.Bookmarks.get_Item(ref objBookmark).Range

The "get_Item" method is not available when I type objDocument.Bookmarks.

The same goes for "Item".

I have "using Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;" at the top of my code.

I try running the code and get this error message "The requested member of the collection does not exist."

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Jason

Answer 1

My mistake - it appears to work IF, and only if, the top control associated with the splitter is docked using the full docked property. Before I was trying with the bottom control using the full docked property. So in summary, it works if: topControl.Docked = DockStyles.Full; bottomControl.Docked = DockStyles.Bottom; I'm gonna submit some code for this one ;)

I got similar error in DataGrid docked in new form after reloading DataSource in DataGrid when new record count is bigger then older and resising form(!). Workaround: myDataGrid.Dock=DockStyle.Top; myForm.Show(); myDataGrid.Dock=DockStyle.Fill; May be any trick like this will be useful.

I haven't looked at this so I don't know if it's a bug or not, but if you are pretty sure it is you might want to add it to this site which has a list of some .NET bugs. Hopefully the guys at MS will check it out.
