OLE question concerning WINDOWSTATE
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2017 12:51 PM

Hello,

In my application I use an OLE instruction to define the way Word has to be shown

I use :

oWord:WindowState := 0/1/2

0 = normal window
1 = maximized window
2 = minimized window

Normally this instructions also has to work for Excel or Outlook.

So I use :

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

oExcel:WindowState := 0/1/2
oOutlook:WindowState := 0/1/2

But for Excel or Outlook my application is generating an error, although, to the Microsoft documentation WindowState is available both in Excel and Outlook.

Anyone any idea?

Thanks a lot in advance.

For Excel, please use these constants:

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

xlMaximized -4137
xlMinimized -4140
xlNormal    -4143
