Hi Chandrakanth.

when I used VSTA to write this code, system display :

Error 1 The name 'eventobj' does not exist in the current context C:\Documents and Settings\JamesLiang.VFF\My Documents\InfoPath Projects\CSR_82611\FormCode.cs 36 17 CSR_8261
Error 2 The name 'eventObj' does not exist in the current context C:\Documents and Settings\JamesLiang.VFF\My Documents\InfoPath Projects\CSR_82611\FormCode.cs 36 40 CSR_8261
Error 3 The type or namespace name 'var' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Documents and Settings\JamesLiang.VFF\My Documents\InfoPath Projects\CSR_82611\FormCode.cs 37 13 CSR_8261
Error 4 The type or namespace name 'ActiveObject' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Documents and Settings\JamesLiang.VFF\My Documents\InfoPath Projects\CSR_82611\FormCode.cs 38 17 CSR_8261
Error 5 The name 'eventObj' does not exist in the current context C:\Documents and Settings\JamesLiang.VFF\My Documents\InfoPath Projects\CSR_82611\FormCode.cs 39 36 CSR_8261

Can you let me know what's happen?

Thanks

Hi Jamesliang,

By writing the following code we can open the word document based on the value selected by the user in the drop down list box.

The steps that you need to follow for getting the word document opened are:

· Right click the drop down list box , based on which the word document needs to be opened and select Programming option.

· In Programming, select “On After Change Event”.

In On After change function of a drop down list box, please write the following code:

if (eventObj.IsUndoRedo || eventObj.Operation == "Insert"){ return;}var wordApp = new ActiveXObject("Word.Application");wordApp.Documents.Open(eventObj.Site.text);

wordApp.Visible = true;
