Re: Win32::OLE first page header/footer how?

A couple of suggestions:

Use a Word Template (.dot) file that contains the formatting info you need. That is easier to modify than code.

Use perl sub to manage repetitive code

sub FormatThis{
  my %h = @_; 
  foreach (keys %h){
    $objSelection->Font->{Bold} = 1;
    $objSelection->TypeText($_);
    $objSelection->Font->{Bold} = 0;
    $objSelection->TypeText('' . $h{$_});
    $objSelection->TypeParagraph();
  }
}
  ##########################
  # Now you can call it like this ...
  FormatThis( 'ARP Always Source Route: ' => $objItem->ArpAlwaysSource
+Route,
      'ARP Use EtherSNAP: ' => $objItem->ArpUseEtherSNAP,

   );
  # Etc...
}

This would avoid the apparent typo you have at "Description".

..."I don't know what the facts are but somebody's certainly going to sit down with him and find out what he knows that they may not know, and make sure he knows what they know that he may not know, and that's a good thing. I think it's a very constructive exchange," --Donald Rumsfeld
