Hi apolon
Unfortunatly I'm not one to be bothered with OLE & Word automation (would be fortunatly for me ).
But maybe this will help you.
I just took a look on google using these searchwords delphi AND word AND macro AND ole .
Good look...

Hi apolon!

I'm not sure, but I think, it is not possible to write macros for ms word in delphi because this macros are written in basic or in another ms language (I hope that's right). What do you want to do? Do you want to remote control Word (printing, new document...)? Then you could use the server components that are included in Delphi (7?). Or, if you want to call word macros from delphi: click

Bye, Stanlay

PS: I'm sure, I made a lot of mistakes please ignore them

ps: I see, Robert posted the same link

Hi my friends

Thanks a lot for your answers.

I want to put a memo on form and write VBA Codes then send these codes to word and name them to a macro in my Doc file.

IS it possible?

Hi! I can't believe that this is possible because the possibility of executing external source in a word document, would be a serious security leak

Bye, Stanlay

As I said I got no experiences with OLE & Word automation, but let me suggest you a way.
As you propably know, these VBA modules are saved in plain text. Maybe you can build one dynamicly and add it to the user's normal.dot.
Now you can access all your macros, just like shown in the link above.
Or you can get a clue of this page, I couldn't without any OLE experiences...

p.s.: Don't hurt me for writing crap

@Robert: Is it possible to change the normal.dot during using word or editing a word document?

[Robert_G]

OK, you did it, now i'm curious...
I'll give it a try...

Sorry, i was forced ( ) to watch "Finding nemo".
I'll get back to it tomorrow...
