Setup for Using MS Word® Window

For Corporate License holders, the Setup for Using MS Word® window is used for selecting whether or not to use MS Word® to generate text-based schedules and reports. When MS Word® has been specified - by placing a check mark in the Use Microsoft Word for documents check box - it will be called whenever the user is printing a text-based document from ResSched.

Use Microsoft Word for documents

Click the check box if you are using Word to print your documents.

This button becomes active after you click the Use Microsoft Word for documents check box. It is used to register the ResSched/Word ocx file before Word® can be used for ResSched documents. If the ArcoIntf.ocx file is not already in the system folder, users will be requested to locate and select it through a file selection window. Users will be notified if the registration is successful. This process has to be done only once for each workstation.

For each text-based schedule or report, a user must specify a template file and a style sheet file. A look-up button beside each entry can be used to select the appropriate file.
