View Full Version : Object not defined while trying to clear contents of row

I have a script that imports form fields and content controls into an excel spreadsheet. I need to alter my script to clear all the contents of row 2 before importing the data. When I try to use the correct statement (highlighted in red) I believe I require to do this, I get the error "1004:Application-defined or object defined error". I am assuming I need to use a DIM statement to fix this but I can't seem to get my head around it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks


Sub GetFormData() 'Note: this code requires a reference to the Word object model
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim wdApp As New Word.Application
Dim wdDoc As Word.Document
Dim CCtrl As Word.ContentControl
Dim FmFld As Word.FormField
Dim strFolder As String, strFile As String
Dim WkSht As Worksheet, i As Long, j As Long
strFolder = GetFolder
If strFolder = "" Then Exit Sub
Set WkSht = ActiveSheet
WkSht.Rows("2:" & Rows.Count).ClearContents
i = 1
strFile = Dir(strFolder & "\*.doc", vbNormal)
While strFile <> ""
i = i + 1
Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open(Filename:=strFolder & "\" & strFile, AddToRecentFiles:=False, Visible:=False)
With wdDoc
j = 0
For Each CCtrl In .ContentControls
j = j + 1
WkSht.Cells(i, j) = CCtrl.Range.Text
Next
For Each FmFld In .FormFields
j = j + 1
WkSht.Cells(i, j) = FmFld.Result
Next
End With
wdDoc.Close SaveChanges:=False
strFile = Dir()
Wend
wdApp.Quit
Set wdDoc = Nothing: Set wdApp = Nothing: Set WkSht = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Function GetFolder() As String
Dim oFolder As Object
GetFolder = ""
Set oFolder = CreateObject("Shell.Application").BrowseForFolder(0, "Choose a folder", 0)
If (Not oFolder Is Nothing) Then GetFolder = oFolder.Items.Item.Path
Set oFolder = Nothing
End Function


Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)


End Sub

Hello TiffanyW,

Your code appears to be in order. Is the worksheet protected?
