Scanning documents into Word 2007

L

LNA

In Word 2003 one can use the 'Insert' option and by choosing the Scanner
option, we can scan from our multifunctional printer directly into a Word
document.

How can we find this option in Word 2007? I've installed our scanner driver
onto the computer, but can't find the option to use it.

Well, that's certainly an alternative method, but not nearly as efficient as
a macro, and Graham's seems adequate.

I'm dubious about your error handling. Seehttp://www.gmayor.com/scan_into_word_2007.htmfor another version.

Clunky perhaps, and I would probably do it like Graham. In this case
JB's method certainly serves the purpose as the following should
illustrate.

Sub Demo1()
On Error Resume Next
Err.Raise 6
MsgBox "Serves the purpose"
End Sub

Sub Demo2()
On Error GoTo JBKBError
Err.Raise 6
JBKBError:
MsgBox "Serves the same purpose"
End Sub

It just appeared to me that On Error was calling a routine that had not been
provided. But since I'm VBA-ignorant, what do I know?
