Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Re: Outoook

Have you tried my suggested Select Case statement?

Re: Outoook

Okay, let's see what's happening. First, in your procedure called ChooseTemplate, set a breakpoint at the line that says End Sub. You can do this one of two ways. You can either click next to the End Sub statement in the left margin indicator bar, or you can position your cursor in the End Sub line, and press F9 or click Toggle Breakpoint from the Debug menu. Then run ChooseTemplate. The macro should stop at the End Sub line. Then, first type the following line in the Immediate Window (Ctrl+G), and press Enter...

Code:
? strTemplate

And then type the following line in the Immediate Window, and press Enter...

Code:
? dir(strTemplate, vbNormal)

What do you get for both of the above?

By the way, I'm going to leaving soon, so I may not be able to get back to you until sometime later.

Re: Outoook

Also, I'm assuming that you've already checked to make sure that the .oft files exist (ie. Requeting Payment.oft, C.C. Authorization2.oft, Payment Inquiry-Current_Pastdue2.oft, etc.), and that they exist in the specified folder, correct?

Re: Outoook

when type in the windows:

? strTemplate it's fine...

But what string does it actually return?

Also, I see that when you post your code, you comment out some lines of code. I'm assuming that you uncomment those lines when testing, correct? If not, make sure that you do so when testing.

Re: Outoook

That means that the variable has not been assigned a value. And, in taking another look at your last code that you posted, I see why. For some reason, you've put back the declaration for lstNum (ie. Dim lstNum as Integer) within the ChooseTemplate procedure. You'll need to remove it, since we've now declared it as a public variable at the beginning of the module.

Re: Outoook

Thank you for answering all my questions.

I removed this line:
Code:
[COLOR=#333333]Dim lstNum As Integer[/COLOR]

still doesn't work.

thanks again
