Microsoft Word Components

[4N6Mstr]

Hello all,

I'm looking for functions / explanations / details for each one of the components of a Word document, which (as far as i know) are:

1. Data
2. 1Table
3. CompObj
4. WordDocument
5. SummaryInformation
6. DocumentSummaryInformation

Hi 4N6Mstr,

These look like variables/expressions in a Word macro. Whilst it's easy enough to find out what the built-in one mean by opening Word, pressing Alt-F11, then looking for them in the vba Help file, it's not possible to say for sure what the first three represent without seeing your code.

And VBA Code et al, is best discussed in Forum707, rather than in this forum, which is focused on MS Office application features.

Thank you both.

Those items are actually the OLE streams that "make" a Word document. Each one stores different aspects of the document.

After i posted I found out tha Miscrosof have opened the structure of the Office files to the public, including Word (

but i was looking for something less technical, just a quick explanation on each of the streams.

Anyway, thank you again.

Any help is always apreciated!

Thx,
