Format :

Page Heading :
"COMPANY NAME" (Page Centre,Font = Bold, Size=14,
Underline)
Sub Heading#1 :
"Something#1" (Page Centre,Font = Bold, Size=12, Underline)

Inside a "Do while ... Loop"

What's the question?

 

[Unni Menon]

I wanted to "Create a Report" in the below format in MS Word ?
How to do it thru Visual Basic 6 code (program) is the question ?
The database is MS Access which will supply the correct recordset which
is not a problem. Getting the Heading, Sub Heading with the right
formatting as mentioned is the issue ? How to deal with it ?

Thanks & Awaiting to hear your valuable advise.

Easiest way is to set up a template in Word. Use DocProperty fields for the
matter to go in the header rows. In your VB code, set the properties then
update fields. For the rest, you're just inserting text.

Dear Jezebel,
Thanks your advise n patience.
Can you please advise how same can be done. Do you have some example/
samples of files.

In this case, except "Page Heading", the Content of "Sub Heading#X" changes
i.e.
Sub Heading # 1 will be "Outstanding Report : Period From Date to To Date"
Sub Heading # 2 will be "Export / Import or Other Data"
Sub Heading # 3 will be "Heading of the Display Fields for Data Line"

Can you pls advise step by step.

Thanks & Rgds
Menon.
