I have an app that opens a word document, and then
modifies/adds text to it.
If I use a network copy of the word doc it works fine.
In an effort to speed up the program I copied the word
doc locally. Now it gives me this error:
File"<ComObject<unknown>>", line 2 in Add
pywintypes.com_error:(-2147352567, 'Exception Occurred',
(0, 'Microsoft Word', 'This document template doesn't exist.,
'c:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office\\1033\\wdmain9.chm',
241617, -2146823151), None)
I think wdmain9.chm is an old-style help file, not a template.
It *does* exist on the local computer. Same behaviour on other
computers regardless of Win97, Win2K.
Any ideas what's going on?
TIA,
Bill
