docprop.Script macro

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi all,

I tried below macro code for adding new script line into existed tab "Main 2" ,

but the below code works like creating another new tab "Main 2" and adding the script line as $(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);

what to change in below code for add new script line into existed tab "Main 2"

docprop.Script = docprop.Script & chr(13) & chr(10) & "///$tab Main 2" & chr(13) & chr(10) & "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

Thanks in advance

Check with this

sub AddScript

docprop=Activedocument.GetProperties

ArrayScript = split(docprop.Script,"///$tab Main 2")

ArrayScript(1)="///$tab Main 2" & ArrayScript(1) & chr(10) & "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

docprop.Script = Join(ArrayScript,chr(10))

msgbox docprop.Script

Activedocument.SetProperties docprop

end sub

Hope it helps

Hi,

It is not adding the script line in "Main 2" tab , it is going to the last tab and adding the script line there.

How to add script line in only "Main 2" tab.

Thanks in advance.

Check with this

sub AddScript

docprop=Activedocument.GetProperties

ArrayScript = split(docprop.Script,"///$tab ")

For i=0 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

if(Left(Trim(ArrayScript(i)),Len("Main 2"))="Main 2") then

ArrayScript(i)=ArrayScript(i) & chr(10) & "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

end if

docprop.Script = Join(ArrayScript,chr(10)&"///$tab ")

Activedocument.SetProperties docprop

end sub

Hi ,

thanks for reply.

Hi,

Check with the below script where Empty tab gets fixed.

sub AddScript

docprop=Activedocument.GetProperties

ArrayScript = split(docprop.Script,"///$tab ")

For i=1 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

if(Left(Trim(ArrayScript(i)),Len("Main 2"))="Main 2") then

ArrayScript(i)=ArrayScript(i) & chr(10) & "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

end if

docprop.Script = "///$tab " & ArrayScript(1)

For i=2 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

docprop.Script = docprop.Script & chr(10)&"///$tab " & ArrayScript(i)

Activedocument.SetProperties docprop

end sub

Hi,

that's really great.

it is removing the empty tabs, but when i click the macro button every time it is adding the same script line repeatedly.

But it should replace the script line in "Main 2" tab. i.e; if n number of times i run the macro it should replace in"Main 2" tab with single script line.

Thanks in advance.

Then you going to add Only new scripts to that tab?

If so use the below script

sub AddScript

docprop=Activedocument.GetProperties

ArrayScript = split(docprop.Script,"///$tab ")

For i=1 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

if(Left(Trim(ArrayScript(i)),Len("Main 2"))="Main 2") then

ArrayScript(i)="Main 2" & chr(10) & "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

end if

docprop.Script = "///$tab " & ArrayScript(1)

For i=2 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

docprop.Script = docprop.Script & chr(10)&"///$tab " & ArrayScript(i)

Activedocument.SetProperties docprop

end sub

Hi,

Awesome !!! Thanks a lot, you solved my three days problem now.

please if you don't mind i had one more doubt i.e; if we want to add script line at particular line number how we can do it ?

Consider that we are planning to add script line at line number "4" in "Main 2" tab.

And if already a script line present at line number 4 it should replace with newly added line script

if no line number "4" present in "Main 2" tab then need to add line number "4" and new line script should add.

is it possible ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Check it out

sub AddScript

For i=1 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

if(Left(Trim(ArrayScript(i)),Len("Main 2"))="Main 2") then

'ArrayScript(i)="Main 2" & chr(10) & "Set vVar=2;Set vVar1=3;"

ArrayTabScript=Split(ArrayScript(i),Chr(10))

if(Ubound(ArrayTabScript)>=4) then

ArrayTabScript(4) = "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

else

for j=Ubound(ArrayTabScript) to 4

if(j=4) then

ArrayTabScript(j) = "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

else

ArrayTabScript(j)=chr(10)

end if

ArrayScript(i)=Join(ArrayTabScript,Chr(10))

Celambarasan Adhimulam,

Excellent job. But i've one doubt why it is not inserting the script in 3rd tab. According to the below it should insert in 3rd tab also b'coz the loop is repeating for the second time also.

For i=2 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

docprop.Script = docprop.Script & chr(10)&"///$tab " & ArrayScript(i)

Hi jacq

I restricted it here

For i=1 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

if(Left(Trim(ArrayScript(i)),Len("Main 2"))="Main 2") then

ArrayScript(i)="Main 2" & chr(10) & "$(Include=d:\vqd eat\text\test.txt);"

end if

Re: docprop.Script macro

CELAMBARASAN — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 13:38:00 GMT

Most probably it will work check it

sub AddScript

docprop=Activedocument.GetProperties

ArrayScript = split(docprop.Script,"///$tab ")

For i=1 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

if(Left(Trim(ArrayScript(i)),Len("Main 2"))="Main 2") then

'ArrayScript(i)="Main 2" & chr(10) & "Set vVar=2;Set vVar1=3;"

ArrayTabScript=Split(ArrayScript(i),Chr(10))

if(Ubound(ArrayTabScript)>=4) then

ArrayTabScript(4)="hi how r u?"

ArrayScript(i)=Join(ArrayTabScript,Chr(10))

else

Dim ArrayTempScript(4)

For j=0 to Ubound(ArrayTabScript)

ArrayTempScript(j)=Array(ArrayTabScript(j))

msgbox Ubound(ArrayTempScript)&isArray(ArrayTempScript)&Ubound(ArrayTabScript)

for j=Ubound(ArrayTabScript)+1 to 4

msgbox Ubound(ArrayTempScript)

if(j=4) then

ArrayTempScript(j)="hi how r u?"

else

ArrayTempScript(j)=chr(10)

end if

ArrayScript(i) = Join(ArrayTempScript,Chr(10))

end if

exit for

end if

docprop.Script = "///$tab " & ArrayScript(1)

For i=2 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

docprop.Script = docprop.Script & chr(10)&"///$tab " & ArrayScript(i)

Activedocument.SetProperties docprop

end sub

Hi ,

sorry for late.

No it is removing the "Main 3" tab and placing the "Main 3" script lines in "Main 2" tab.

Please can you suggest what to do now .

Thanks in advance.

Re: docprop.Script macro

CELAMBARASAN — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 15:04:41 GMT

Change this part

For i=2 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

docprop.Script = docprop.Script &"///$tab " & ArrayScript(i)

For i=2 to Ubound(ArrayScript)

docprop.Script = docprop.Script & Chr(10) &"///$tab " & ArrayScript(i)
