[Solved] Merging Document and Images into one MSword document.


Recommended Posts

Hi Experts,

Just want to ask some question if autoIt can do merging for MSword .docx, .doc, .jpg/.tiff/.png into one MSword document?

Example: I have one .docx word contains first data and .doc word contains second data and some images separated and I want these files to be merged as one MSword document only. Let's say first data, second data and the images into one document. Can that be done?

I think you would have to add the images manually but to merge a number of word documents you can use something like:

#include <File.au3>
#include <Word.au3>
Local $aWordDocs = _FileListToArrayRec("C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\Examples\Helpfile\Extras", "*.doc*", 1, 1, 0, 2)
Local $bDoc = False, $oWordDoc
Local $oWord = _Word_Create()

For $i = 1 To $aWordDocs[0]
    If $bDoc Then
        $oWordDoc.Bookmarks("\EndOfDoc").Range.InsertBreak($WdPageBreak)
    Else
        $oWordDoc = $oWord.Documents.Add($aWordDocs[$i])
        $bDoc = True
    EndIf
    $oWordDoc.Bookmarks("\EndOfDoc").Range.InsertFile($aWordDocs[$i])
Next

@Subz,

Thanks, it work but I need to select the document that I need to merged. I have this old script that I have this is old version and the problem of this code is I can only merge one file at a time. All I need is to select multiple document to merged and be sequence.

Here's my old code:

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiListBox.au3>
#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>

I don't know if this is perfect but image is not merging, and only 1 file at a time. I need to select multiple document to merge. Sooner or later, I will add button up and down to sequence the files for merging.

Hope you can check on this.:sweating:

Nope, I already have the latest version, that code was coded from my old version before long time ago and I want to improvise the features in it if possible using the latest version.^_^

Maybe something like the following:

nb: If you Add one file at a time you can select the order of the merge, tested with the following file types and merged into a single document:

  • 1 x doc
  • 2 x docx
  • 1 x jpg
  • 1 x png
  • 1 x tif

@Subz,

Thanks, it really merged the files. But I need to merge them in the active document that is open. Like, I have one document that is open and I noticed that this document has missing information found only in the second document and images were separated as well. So, I'l select the missing file and images from that GUI and merge them in the active document/opened document.

@Subz,

I want make it like the below which the old script does. It shows all the document file found from the path given and merge them into an active document that is open. This old script will only select one file at a time.

image.png.ce5207a09af3edeabd1fb53faddc9604.png

 

And I want it to be like this, that when I selected a file I can add the file to the below and the Up and Down buttons will be the one to sequence them according to my desired.

EDIT: Oppss!.. missed to add, that the button "Path File" is where the active document path.:sweating:

@Subz,

Wow!!!!!:lmao:... Thanks Subz, amazing...:>

I only have few suggestions:sweating:, I tried checking you code but I can't trace where to start regarding my suggestion. Opss!:D

1st: Please can you remove the path shown in the GUI? can you show only the files that was found from the active document/path?

image.png.43ddcea33697dce9f222f97c2312ffc8.png

2nd: Instead of browsing the files to merged, can you have like path the file automatically where it was opened? and FileReadLine() for the path? Like the below what I did is (using macro vba) once they click on the link found in their tools in MSword (addins tool), it will create the path.ini (getting the active document path) below and then call the merging tool and the merging tool will check on the path.ini where the active document was path. After checking the line in path.ini, all files found from that path will be shown to the GUI, the same as what you made but this time not doing the browsing. Can that be done?:>

Func Selectapps()
$file = "C:\Users\" & @UserName & "\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Path.ini"
FileOpen($file, 0)

For $i = 1 to _FileCountLines($file)
    $line = FileReadLine($file, $i)
Next
FileClose($file)
$Count = 0
;code here
EndFunc

 

Thanks  in advance!

When testing your code, everything is perfect, png is fine and was merged to the active document. The line in Path.ini is only like this "D:\Programs\Test\AutoIt\Merged" and the merging tool will get the name of the active document that is opened.

 

EDIT: I mean, the merging tool will get the files from that path found in Path.ini

Png is displaying now.

1st: Please can you remove the path shown in the GUI?
Do you mean the top line in the first ListBox as that is the same as the document selected, the one you highlighted appears to be a different document altogether.

Can you show only the files that was found from the active document/path?
Do you mean by default and remove the Browse button to select a new folder?

So Path.ini isn't a real .ini file? i.e.
[Section Name]
Path = D:\Programs\Test\AutoIt\Merged

If it is only a text file then can we just use FileReadLine(@AppData & "\Microsoft\Templates\Path.ini", 1), i.e. just reads the first line or will there be more than one line?

@Subz,

I made it this way, in fact it shows all the document found from the path of the active document and everything follows...:lol:

Func Selectapps()
   $file = @ScriptDir & "\Path.ini"
   FileOpen($file, 0)
   For $i = 1 to _FileCountLines($file)
      $line = FileReadLine($file, $i)
   Next
   FileClose($file)
   Global $oWord = _Word_Create()
   Global $oDoc = _Word_DocGet($oWord, 1)
   Local $DocFile = $oDoc.Name
    Local $bDocAttach = True
    Local $oWord = _Word_Create(True, False)
    GUICreate("Merge File(s)", 400, 395, 350, 250)
        GUISetBkColor(0xFFFFFF)
    Local $idSelectDoc = GUICtrlCreateCombo($line & "\" & $DocFile, 10, 10, 310, 20) ; getting the active document and the $line from the path.ini

Highlighting that document was not intentionally, it's just I forgot to change the highlighted doc. Yup, I added two the same file name but different extension (sorry I missed upo:)).

It's just one line for the users accuracy not to browse anymore and instead, it will show automatically the files.

Can you test the following:

I haven't removed the file paths yet, the only issue I have with that is if a user selects another folder to add more docs to merge, then the script wouldn't know where to look for the files.  For example if you wanted to merge documents from:

C:\Folder1\Image1.jpg
C:\Folder2\Image1.jpg

It wouldn't know where Image1.jpg is coming from if we remove the file path.

Hope that makes sense.

Hmmm yup, it makes sense.:sweating: But there are cases that they can't see the files what to merge due to the long path that was shown in $idListDocs, like below. The user needs to see the files what they are going to merge.:>

Over all, thank you very much, it work as expected and much appreciated Subz.o:)

 

EDIT: I just notice that the clear item is not working.

Sorry have fixed the Clear Item in the code above, what I would suggest is using ListView rather than ListBox, for column 1 have the File Path and for column 2 have the File Name, then change the Column 1 Width to 0 (basically hidden).  That should get around the issue, alternatively you could add $WS_HSCROLL to the ListBox, but the work around is not as nice as a ListView.  If I get a chance I'll look into it for you if you like, your call.

@Subz,

Thank you so much for the BIG help Subz, I agree with the path that should be shown in the GUI to identify where that file/s were located or saved. I did some interview with the Station Stuff in production yesterday and found out that they are also merging some files from different path. Hmmmm:sweating: you've got me there, thankz!

Anyways, thank you for fixing the clear item as well (I did not notice that "$idListItems" was declared instead of "$idListDocs") and what I did with your code is, I added the below code for them to resize freely the GUI to fully see the files found for merging. In that, that fixes my issue and thank you! thank you! thank you....! so much for the help. Really appreciated!!!:> In short, there's no need to changed you code IT WAS PERFECT..... Still your the best.

Thanks!o:)
