[Openroad-users] Printing images from OR

[Andrew]

Thanks Gareth and Pete,

I am unable to use external classes as my user base
varies in the versions of Word and Excel that they
use. So I wrote a little vb6 app to late bind and run my
merge and other Word and Excel commands.

I have created a merge-like function to read a pipe
delimited data file, holding my list of image filenames
and other details, then creates a table in word and
inserts the images and details. The template file
used is just an empty word doc with some header
and footer info.

I have attached my photomerge vb function (yes
I know, this group is for OR, not vb, but I was taught
to share) - any suggestions on making it better are
welcomed. Please note: Vista is giving me some
headaches.. but those woes are for another email
group.

Thanks again guys for the code and ideas.
Andrew.
