Howdy,
I have a routine in my database that writes a TXT file and
then calls a Word 2000 macro.
The macro simply formats the file and prints it a particular
way.
The problem is that I sometimes have upper ASCII (accented)
characters in the TXT file, and Word changes them to blanks.
With some experimentation, I have found that the problem is
in the conversion process. If I manually tell Word to format
the TXT file as "Plain Text" all is well.
I can solve my problem in two ways (that I can see.)
One would be if I can set Word to default to that formatting
for all TXT files.
The other would be if I can include in the macro some code
to specify that formatting.
Can you help with either?
Thanks,
