I don't use create class from typelib, but it does get the enums if you do
it with #import.

#define _MSWORDOLB_PATH "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE12\MSWORD.OLB"
#import _MSWORDOLB_PATH rename("ExitWindows", "WordExitWindows")
rename("FindText", "WordFindText") raw_interfaces_only
using namespace Word;

This creates the file msword.tlh which includes, among many other things,
this declaration:

enum WdSaveFormat
{
    wdFormatDocument = 0,
    wdFormatDocument97 = 0,
    wdFormatTemplate = 1,
    wdFormatTemplate97 = 1,
    wdFormatText = 2,
    wdFormatTextLineBreaks = 3,
    wdFormatDOSText = 4,
    wdFormatDOSTextLineBreaks = 5,
    wdFormatRTF = 6,
    wdFormatUnicodeText = 7,
    wdFormatEncodedText = 7,
    wdFormatHTML = 8,
    wdFormatWebArchive = 9,
    wdFormatFilteredHTML = 10,
    wdFormatXML = 11,
    wdFormatXMLDocument = 12,
    wdFormatXMLDocumentMacroEnabled = 13,
    wdFormatXMLTemplate = 14,
    wdFormatXMLTemplateMacroEnabled = 15,
    wdFormatDocumentDefault = 16,
    wdFormatPDF = 17,
    wdFormatXPS = 18,
    wdFormatFlatXML = 19,
    wdFormatFlatXMLMacroEnabled = 20,
    wdFormatFlatXMLTemplate = 21,
    wdFormatFlatXMLTemplateMacroEnabled = 22,
    wdFormatOpenDocumentText = 23
};

Hi,

Im using WORD automation from an MFC client app using VS 2005.
I can successfully start WORD and open an existing word document.

What I want to then do is save it in a different format via the SaveAs
method on the Document object and where the second parameter is the format
to
save-as.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.word.wdsaveformat.aspx

My problem is specifiying this parameter - as takes a variant, in the
documentation need to specifiy and enum of WdSaveFormat but this is not in
any of my word files
generated from create class from typlib where i selected just what i
thought
i needed Application and Document objects.

Basically how to specify the format parameter for the SaveAs method
relative
to the enum values specified in the documentation link above?

Thanks
