How can I get Extra to launch notepad or ms word?
 
go to settings - toolbars
create a new toolbar or edit your existing toolbar
add a new button then edit that button
choose applications - run then point it to C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe

Word would be found in c:\program files\microsoft office
 
How can you do it through a macro. I was going to load Word, appactivate it, and sendkeys to it.
 


Hi,

load Word, appactivate it, and sendkeys to it.
That is not the same as...

You got an answer to your original question. Had you asked the real question, you would possibly have received the answer you are expecting.

Check out the CreateObject function in Word VB Help. It has some good examples as well.
