Passing a form value to MS Word document header

2 New Member
I've been working with VBA for Microsoft Access for a few months now, and now I've got a small task to complete using VBA in Microsoft Word 2003. There are three offices that my company works with, and we'd like to make a certain document pop up a prompt when it loads to ask which office the document will be regarding. The user will select an office, and the value will be passed to a certain spot in the header (the "certain spot" thing isn't important, I'm comfortable compiling a string and passing back the whole thing).

I'm not sure how to pass the form value back to the parent (specifically in the header), and I'm also not sure how to make a macro run upon opening a document. Any help you guys could give would be greatly appreciated.

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com **** HI, I am working on a project where I need to input data to a (local) HTML page using multiple form elements, such as text, radio, checkbox, and dropdown. When the form Submit button is clicked, I then need the input data either written to another location on the same page, or written to another page (a different frame would be fine)

Hello, I was wondering if there are a few good pages and/or examples on how to process form data correctly for putting it in a MySQL DB. Since I'm not used to using PHP a lot, I already found out that addslashes() can be used escape some characters, but I'm having some more problems with for instance ä, å and µ (since the text is scientifical) Now some people also throw in htmlspecialchars() to convert those to HTML entities, but some...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
