Help with Microsoft Word Object 1

[ppepin]

I am looking for some assistance with a problem I am having. I am creating a Microsoft Word document from an ASP page using Server.CreateObject("Word.Application&quot. The document creates fine and I am able to manipulate it, format it, put in tables and populate cells.

My issue is page numbering. I have successfully added headers and footers to all the pages. The header is pretty substantial and includes a table. I want to place the pagenum field in one of the cells in the header and I am using the following code:

SET myHeaderex = doc.Sections(2).Headers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary)

SET mytableex = myHeaderex.Range.Tables.Add(myHeaderex.Range, 11, 7)

mytableex.Range.Cells(42).Range.Fields.Add mytableex.Range.Cells(42).Range, wdFieldPage

I receive the following error message:
Microsoft Word error '800a11fd'

This command is not available.

/test2.asp, line 631

Has anyone tried this? Any input will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello ppepin,

Define the constants explicitly?

Const wdHeaderFooterPrimary = 1
Const wdFieldPage = 33

Already done. The example above was for illustration only. These are defined and are being used they way you suggested.

Any other ideas of why I am receiving this error message and what does it mean?

Thanks.
