Public member 'wdGoToPage' on type 'DocumentClass' not found.

[christer99]

How do I create a reference to wdGoToPage? What is missing? Why are all program examples with out references and why do I do this in Visual Studio 2003?

I can compile the code (build the application), but when I run it I am getting this error:

Public member 'wdGoToPage' on type 'DocumentClass' not found.

Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word

Public Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Dim oWord As Word.Application
Dim oDoc3 As Word.Document

oDoc3 = oWord.Documents.Add("J:\VBProposalTemplates\surplus4.dot")
oDoc3.Content.Copy()
Dim activeFile As String

oDoc3.Activate()
Dim rad As Word.Range
oWord.Selection.GoTo(What:=oDoc3.wdGoToPage, Which:=oWord.wdGoToNext, Name:="3")
oWord.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add(Name:="temp1", Range:=oWord.Selection.Range)
oDoc3.Selection.GoTo(What:=oWord.wdGoToPage, Which:=oWord.wdGoToNext, Name:="6")

rad = oWord.ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=oWord.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("temp1").Range.Start, _
End:=oWord.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\page").Range.End)

End sub

Replace this:
oDoc3 = oWord.Documents.Add("J:\VBProposalTemplates\surplus4.dot")
By this:
Set oDoc3 = oWord.Documents.Add("J:\VBProposalTemplates\surplus4.dot")
And this:
What:=oDoc3.wdGoToPage, Which:=oWord.wdGoToNext
By this:
What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext

Hope This Helps, PH.

Driving me crazy, but:

when I change it to "Set... (Set oDoc3 = oWord.Documents.Add("J:\VBProposalTemplates\surplus4.dot") " MS Visual Studio 2003 automatically removes "Set" from the line. The same if I type, the program automatically removes "set" so I assume Visual Studio 2003 doesn't require it.

Then if I change the "what..." to What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext

oWord.Selection.GoTo(What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:="3")

I am getting this error: Name 'wdGoToPage' is not declared.

and I can't even build the solution

I am also very confused why I have to reference everything when all the program examples are set up like this. Any help would be appreciated. I am ready to throw out the computer out of the window.
