Re: Excel_Get

I think I chose the wrong bit to comment out. When I moved the semicolon to just after the word "return" in the problem line, it worked. Or perhaps my computer was in a mood, I just restated it for other reasons. anyway, it works! PPTGet Error 4.png I will try and upgrade my AHK version, but I menti...

Re: Excel_Get

So, when I tried that, i got two new errors.

The first, when I tried to run it was:
PPTGet Error 3.png
PPTGet Error 3.png (7.41 KiB) Viewed 11601 times
The second (when i commented out the line above) was:
PPTGet Error 2.png
PPTGet Error 2.png (28.57 KiB) Viewed 11601 times
Possibly a step closer, but still a few bugs

I cannot say how GRATEFUL I am to all of you for working on this.

Re: Word_Get.ahk - use instead of ComObjActive

Worked PERFECTLY for me. Allowed me to update an existing script, rather than start from scratch when a department asked me to automate the transfer of word documents from one template to another. MANY THANKS!

Re: Excel_Get is AMAZING, could someone make a PowerPoint_Get?

I get the same error message when I try that with oWkbk := ComObjCreate("Excel.Application") However, oWkbk := Excel_Get() works. So far as I can tell, this is becau...

Excel_Get is AMAZING, could someone make a PowerPoint_Get?

So, a few months ago, so code I had for Excel stopped working after my company changed some security settings. I despaired of being able to control Excel with AHK again, when I came across "Excel_Get". It is wonderful! It saved my script, and saved me and my company hundreds of hours. However, now I...

Re: "Enable All Features" in Adobe Acrobat (Work Around)

I eventually found a work around. It involved using "FindClick()" to click on the "Enable All" button. It is not as reliable as I would have preferred, but it will do.

You are right, I should have explained what code I was using, it is: [/oExcel := ComObjActive("Excel.Application") ; try to access active Workbook object code] It had been working for months until now. Then, a few weeks ago, it stopped. I tried adding the code you listed to my existing script, and i...
