com >> What is clientName and clientWindow in automation code?

by deko » Wed, 04 Jan 2006 15:54:24 GMT

I'm trying to automate the PaperPort 9 application so I can acquire scanned
images and documents from an Access application.

The goal is to click a button and initiate a scan of a
document into a pdf file, then programmatically name the file and move it to
a
particular folder. The problem is I have no documentation other than the
Object Browser (in the Access VBA Editor).

When trying to connect to the scanner, I do this:

Dim ppCnx As ScannerConnection
Set ppCnx = New ScannerConnection

But I need to register the client (whatever that means).

If I try this:

Debug.Print ppCnx.ScannerConnected

I get a Visual Basic Run-time error:

"PaperPort error. The client called the Scanner manager before being
properly registered..."

Looking at the RegisterClient event in Object Browser, I see it takes 2
arguments:

Sub RegisterClient(clientName As String, clientWindow As Long)

So I think I need something like this:

ppCnx.RegisterClient(strClientName, lngClientWindow)

But what is clientName and clientWindow??

Any suggestions welcome. And if anyone can point me to PaperPort automation
sample code that would be great.

Thanks in advance.

5. I am using a Sub Mail_ActiveSheet_Outlook() code in VB 

I am using a VB code in Excel that copies an excel sheet from a workbook, 
saves it to another worksheet and then sends it via Outlook.  I would like to 
add another attachment of an rtf file but have been unsuccessful in doing so. 
 See code below:


Sub Mail_ActiveSheet_Outlook()
'
' Mail_ActiveSheet_Outlook()
' Macro recorded 3/8/2006 by United Parcel Service
'
'You must add a reference to the Microsoft outlook Library
    Dim OutApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim OutMail As Outlook.MailItem
    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim strdate As String
    strdate = Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy h-mm-ss")
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Sheets("Daily Carrier Info - Yard").Copy
    Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
    With wb
        .SaveAs "Yard Status " & ThisWorkbook.Name _
              & " " & strdate & ".xls"
        Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
        Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
        With OutMail
            .To = " XXXX@XXXXX.COM "
            .CC = ""
            .BCC = ""
            .Subject = "Outbound FTC91102"
            .Body = "Please see today's attached Full Outbound and Yard 
Status reports."
            .Attachments.Add wb.FullName
            'You can add other files also like this
            '.Attachments.Add ("\\usagatla01s1002\Sear_K Mrt 
Share\Sears-Kmart\Daily Reporting\rptFullOutbound.rtf")
            .Send   'or use .Display
        End With
        .ChangeFileAccess xlReadOnly
        Kill .FullName
        .Close False
    End With
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Set OutMail = Nothing
    Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub

The section (.Attachments.Add wb.FullName) I would think should be as 
follows but it doesn't work.

.Attachments.Add rtf.("\\usagatla01s1002\Sear_K Mrt Share\Sears-Kmart\Daily 
Reporting\rptFullOutbound.rtf")

Is this possible to do???

Thanks.

I have moved to using HTA scripts but I can't figure out how to send an exit

quit(code). This function will not work in HTA. Is there a way to pass the 
exit code back from an HTA?

Thanks
