Re: Microsoft Word - Select next line after a table

Did you use wdline or wdLine? Capitalization makes a difference...

If that's not the problem, you should be able to take care of the bareword error by using quote marks - 'wdLine' and 'wdExtend'. I'm not familiar with controlling Word with Perl, so this is about as much help as I can give.

I got the error removed with your suggestion but it still doesn't do anything. So is there another way to select a line or maybe a paragraph? I'm open to any way, using Perl of course.	[reply]

This works, but I don't know why: `$word->Selection->MoveDown({Extend=> 1, Count=> 1});` Keep in mind that there might be a blank line after your table, so set Count appropriately. It looks like OLE wants a number, rather than 'wdExtend'. Which is weird, but what would you expect from a mashup of Microsoft and open source? Update: Following on from Anonymous Monk's advice, putting `use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Word';` at the top of the file fixes this. This works: `$word->Selection->MoveDown({Extend=> wdExtend, Count=> 1});`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
