Can't set footnote in Word doc using Excel VBA -

-

i have numerous word documents have several content controls in them. using excel file update word docs. when make update, need insert footnote describing change. can update contents of content control fine, having problems inserting footnote. here's code:

set cc = orange.contentcontrols(intcounter) stroriginaldate = cc.range.text  if wrddoc.protectiontype <> wdnoprotection     wrddoc.unprotect strsheetpassword end if  if wrddoc.formsdesign = false     wrddoc.toggleformsdesign end if cc.range.text = strcod ' ' insert footnote ' orange = wrddoc.range(cc.range.end, cc.range.end) orange.select selection.moveright units:=wdcharacter, count:=1 selection.typetext text:=" " selection     .footnoteoptions         .location = wdbottomofpage         .numberingrule = wdrestartcontinuous         .startingnumber = 1         .numberstyle = wdnotenumberstylearabic         .layoutcolumns = 0     end     .footnotes.add range:=cc.range, text:="case opening date changed " & _     stroriginaldate & " " & strcod & " on " & date, reference:=""     end if end  wrddoc.toggleformsdesign wrddoc.protect type:=wdallowonlyformfields, password:=strsheetpassword wrddoc.save

when down line selection.moveright units:=wdcharacter, count:=1, error says object doesn't support property or method. in essence, i'm trying move end of control, on next step, i'm trying move beyond/outside control.

when comment out line , line follows it, end trying insert footnote content control. fails on with .footnoteoptions line, possibly because content control i'm using date picker.

you correct can't add footnote inside of content control. solution trying - put in document after. problem trying add using selection object.

since have range within context of document (orange), work directly:

' ' insert footnote '  'move orange "insertion point" after control. orange.start = cc.range.end + 1 'collapse it. orange.end = orange.start 'add space. orange.text = " "  orange.footnoteoptions     .location = wdbottomofpage     .numberingrule = wdrestartcontinuous     .startingnumber = 1     .numberstyle = wdnotenumberstylearabic     .layoutcolumns = 0 end  orange.footnotes.add range:=orange, text:="case opening date changed " & _                      stroriginaldate & " " & strcod & " on " & date

there's no reason mucking around selection - it's glorified range added benefit of doing annoying things word "for benefit" (like grabbing trailing space) while you're highlighting mouse.

i'll note can omit reference:="" - gets set empty string default. have floating end if inside block.

java - UML - How would you draw a try catch in a sequence diagram? -

is there standard way of drawing try catch sequence diagrams? i've made attempt based on this feel end result doesn't feel right. code diagram based around: public static void save () { try { filehandle filehandle = gdx.files.external(file); filehandle.writestring(boolean.tostring(constantshandler.soundenabled)+"\n", false); (int = 0; < 5; i++) { filehandle.writestring(integer.tostring(constantshandler.highscores[i])+"\n", true); } } catch (throwable e) { } } my attempt note: know still need add loop. that's ok. fragments meant show conditional control flow in sequence diagram. superstructures puts limitations on use of fragments (see pp. 467 of ss2.1.1). should use critical region try part above. , option catch . however, keep telling can take quite freedom in using uml. it's language , such changes in life time. long reader ge...
