This much I got...
tell application "Microsoft Word" get name of document 1 --> "My Table Tests" get uniform of table 1 of document 1 --> true get row index of row 3 of table 1 of document 1 --> 3 get column index of cell 4 of row 3 of table 1 of document 1 --> 4 get value of cell 4 of row 3 of table 1 of document 1 --> missing value get contents of cell 4 of row 3 of table 1 of document 1 --> missing value get every text of cell 4 of row 3 of table 1 of document 1 --> current application end tell
Hi Gil,
This may get you going again. The code below returns the correct cell contents, but always with a return appended to the end. You may want to strip that off. Numbers are also returned as strings with a trailing return.
tell application "Microsoft Word" tell table 1 of document 1 set blah to content of text object of cell 1 of row 2 end tell end tell
HTH, Stan |
