Hi.
I want to program, from Dynamics Navision 2009 C/Side code, a function that generates in Word a numered list as show below.
I know how to create, save and open the document. Also know how to insert text, tabs, and other things. But I could not manage to insert a numered list.
That's my problem.
Any Idea.

Happy to help :)
Thanks for your suggestion Nev.
Here I leave the code I used to solve my problem.
Thank you again.
CODE:
NewLine := 13;
Tab := 9;
CLEAR(WordApp);
IF ISCLEAR(WordApp) THEN
CREATE(WordApp, TRUE, FALSE);
WordDoc := WordApp.Documents.Add; //Add New Document
WordAppSelection := WordApp.Selection;
WordApp.Run('Macro1'); //Activate the numered list
WordAppSelection.TypeText('Text1');
WordAppSelection.TypeText(FORMAT(NewLine));
WordAppSelection.TypeText('Text2');
WordAppSelection.TypeText(FORMAT(NewLine));
WordAppSelection.TypeText('Text3');
WordAppSelection.TypeText(FORMAT(NewLine));
WordApp.Run('Macro2'); //Deactivate the numered list
WordAppSelection.TypeText(FORMAT(NewLine));
WordAppSelection.TypeText(FORMAT(NewLine));
WordAppSelection.TypeText(FORMAT(TAB));
WordAppSelection.TypeText('Texto3');
Hi
If you know a bit of VB you can also create a word doc, add a line of text, use the record macro functionality in word and set the line to bulleted, then stop and view the code of the macro, it takes a bit of trial and error but i managed to do some crazy stuff in excel using this method to figure out how the functions get called, then reproduce it in NAV
Cheers

I haven't tried it but, how about opening a word doc (2010) goto Home-> turn on numbering, then select the numbering format you want. Save it as a template. Then use that template as the one you call from automation.
Hopefully everything entered will get automatically numbered.
