[AccessD] Scrape Word

Monarch is a good solution. It has an object model that can be programmed
from Access. I use it to extract data from text files directly into Access.

Subject: [AccessD] Scrape Word


Hello to the list,

I am looking to programmically extract data from about 250 Word docs.
It appears that there are no bookmarks, fields or table structure.

It also looks like all data are in the same place and associated with the
same phrase ahead of the data of interest.

So, if I "find" the proper phrase and capture the text after it, I think
that will do. Issues like how to know when to stop and such will be
interesting.


thots?

best,

bob
