System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: 'El comando falló'

Question

Hi,

I am trying to get coordinates of a bookmark item on a word document.

Dim w = wApp()
Dim doc = w.Documents.Open(DOCFileName, , True)
Dim v As Word.Window = doc.ActiveWindow
Dim izq As Int32, sup As Int32, ancho As Int32, largo As Int32
Dim r As Word.Range

doc.Application.Visible = True

r = doc.Bookmarks.Item("ANYOFIRMA").Range

Until here the variables apparently have values and no error popped up.

v.GetPoint(izq, sup, ancho, largo, r) -> This output the error: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: 'El comando falló'

I am lost and I don't know what else to try.

Cheers

Answer 1

Hello,

I have updated the question with the v declaration.

Sorry I have forgotten to add it.

Edit:

I had to change the hard disk to a copy of my co-worker and it works. No idea why. :(

Answer 2

I could not reproduce the problem with my copy of Word.

Code snippet -

            Dim wApp As Application  
            Dim d As Document  
            Dim b As Bookmark  
            Dim r As Range  
            Dim v As Window  
            Dim izq As Int32, sup As Int32, ancho As Int32, largo As Int32  
  
            wApp = New Application()  
            wApp.Visible = True  
            d = wApp.Documents.Open("C:\Users\RLWA32\Documents\BOOKTEST.docx")  
            b = d.Bookmarks("BOOKTEST")  
            v = d.ActiveWindow  
            r = b.Range  
            v.GetPoint(izq, sup, ancho, largo, r)
