Auto-Macro

[nelliott]

Is it possible to get Filemaker to open a Word document and automatically run a macro within the file?

Cheers

Nick

Yes (I only know it for windows 2000, but should work for 98 as well)

Use the send message command, enter in the text field:

winword /mmacro_name path_to_file_with_file_name

NOTE:

it is really /m and directly behind it the name of the macro

Use the old dos kind of writing such as

c:name_of_subfoldername_of_file
