<Word Processing>.Open (Function)

In french: <Traitement de texte>.Ouvre

Opens a Word Processing file (docx format) in Read/Write mode. The docx file is opened and locked until it is closed.

Remark: To create a docx file without using an initial file, all you have to do is create a Document variable (in this case, <Word Processing>.Open is useless).

Example

WP_MyWP.Open("C:\Users\test\Documents\file.docx")

IF ErrorOccurred() THEN
Error(ErrorInfo())
RETURN
END
