Introduction to

Wrocco
ugy
uad
Wrocco
uds
converts the text of a
uad
Microsoft
uds
(R)
uad
Word
uds
document to an
uaa
xml
representation. Beyond the raw text, the names of paragraph styles and character styles and document properties and variables are written to the
uaa
xml
file.
uad
Wrocco
uds
does not export information about direct formatting (without named styles). Tables, pictures and similar page elements are not supported.

Obtaining the Wrocco Source Code
ugy
uai
Legal information
uad
Wrocco
uds
is an experimental software project in pre-alpha state. It is only intended for experienced programmers who can read and understand
uaa
vba
source code and estimate the risks involved. By using
uad
Wrocco
uds
the user agrees that he will use it entirely on his own risk and will backup all data before using
uad
Wrocco
.
uad
Wrocco
uds
is not public domain. It is copyright 2002 by
uas
Stefan Ram
.
uad
Wrocco
uds
may be
uae
used
uds
for free but
uad
Wrocco
uds
or any of its parts may not be redistributed as it is or as part of other software by anyone else than Stefan Ram and it may not be mirrored on any other server. It also may not be redistributed via software collections in any form.
ugy
uad
Wrocco
uds
can be obtained via a
uaa
http
get request as a simple text file with its
uaa
vba
source code using the following
uaa
uri
.

uhg
Installing
uad
Wrocco
ugy
From Word press
ual
Alt
-
ual
F11
to go to
uaa
vba
. In
uaa
vba
use
ual
Ctrl
-
ual
R
to view the project explorer window. Use the context menu to send the message Insert/Module to your document template file in the project explorer window. A new empty module window should open. Paste the complete Wrocco source code into this window. Save your document template.
uhg
Configuring
uad
Wrocco
ugy
In the source code, search for "
uat
Sub Main
". In the next line, edit the text "
uat
c:\
" to the desired output directory.
uhg
Running
uad
Wrocco
ugy
To start Wrocco, move the Cursor to the text "
uat
Sub Main
" and press the key
ual
F5
. The active document will be written out as an
uaa
xml
file. If you learn more about
uaa
vba
, you will learn more about its features and it will see possibilities to start macros even easier. But this is not the right place to teach
uaa
vba
.
uhg
Future Directions
ugy
I intend to release additional products to support
uad
Wrocco
. For example, the
uaa
xml
application it uses is not specified. You have to guess the meanings of the elements from the source. There is no
uaa
dtd
yet nor are
uaa
xsl
-examples.

Comments?
