I get a Type Mismatch error when trying to openwordfile by using
automation. I am using msword.h header from Office 2007 and compiling
with VC++ 6.0.

CoInitialize(0);

_Application oWord ;
Documents oDocs;
_Document oDoc;
COleVariant vOpt(DISP_E_PARAMNOTFOUND, VT_ERROR); //For optional args

//StartWord
if(!(oWord.CreateDispatch("Word.Application", NULL)))

{
AfxMessageBox("Error startingWord.", MB_SETFOREGROUND);
return 0;

}

//Open a document
oDocs = oWord.GetDocuments();

//error happens on this line
oDoc = oDocs.Open(COleVariant("C:\\PROJECTS\\RRD_OFFICE2007\
\test.rtf"), vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt,
vOpt,vOpt,vOpt,vOpt,vOpt,vOpt,vOpt);

Does any one have an idea?

Thanks

Hi,

There is a tool called Advanced Word Repair. I have used it to repair
many corrupt Word documents on my damaged disks successfully. Its
homepage is http://www.datanumen.com/awr/
