Jury Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Why doesn't this work? If I use ^g in a macro it works and when I use ^p (to replace a paragraph) it works? #include <Word.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> Global $oWord = _Word_Create(False) $processing = @MyDocumentsDir & '\AutoIt_code\getter\processing\' $oDoc = _Word_DocOpen($oWord, $processing & "1200.doc", Default, Default, False) _Word_DocFindReplace($oDoc, "^g", "image removed", $WdReplaceAll) If @error <> 0 Then Exit MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Word UDF: _Word_DocFindReplace Example", _ "Error replacing text in the document." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Word UDF: _Word_DocFindReplace Example", "Paragraph control character successfully replaced.") _Word_DocClose($oDoc, $WdSaveChanges) _Word_Quit($oDoc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jury Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Sorry water - I've just deleted my reply because I created a fresh doc file with an image in it and it worked - just as you said it would. It seems the files that I'm working on have something different about the images which causes the problem. Once again thanks for your valuable help. So in the end this works for removing all normal images from a file: $oDoc = _Word_DocOpen($oWord, "filepath/filename.doc", Default, Default, False) _Word_DocFindReplace($oDoc, "^g", "", $WdReplaceAll, 0, False, False, False) _Word_DocClose($oDoc, $WdSaveChanges) _Word_Quit($oDoc) Edited November 7, 2014 by Jury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
