Microsoft Word 2007 Scripts

This script launches Microsoft Word 2007 if it not already running. It is just a sample script that guides you to add columns in Word and optionally paste in text from a web site.

I'll add the project file later. It's very easy to open up a web page to allow the drag part. Just record a click and then change the step type action to "none". Modify the balloon text and add a Continue button. You'll see the detail in the project file.

I had inconsistencies with Word using a consistent object to point to the columns ruler. There were two objects that it alternated using. The object name was client/client in both cases, but I never spent the time to figure out what caused the other object to point to.
