i am using Word interop in C# application.
using Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
var app = new Word.Application();
var doc = app.Documents.Open("file.docx", PasswordDocument: "");
I am trying to open word file having password length > 15. It gives error of invalid command line.
Same file can open by giving manual password in document file.
Any solution from coding side for this issue?

While opening a partly corrupted file using OpenFile (encoding specified), there isn't an option to force it using the specified encoding, thus the macro is interrupted.
Is there an option in macro to force it "Continue opening as Current Encoding", instead of letting the user choose and continue?
You can clear the Prompt if Null Character Found and Prompt if Invalid Character Found options in the File page of configuration properties of the file type. To do this in a macro, you can add the following code before OpenFile.
document.ConfigName = "Text"; // replace "Text" with the configuration of your file type
cfg = document.Config;
cfg.File.PromptInvalid = false;
cfg.File.PromptNull = false;
cfg.Save();
I have a Xamarin application running on Windows, and I have a method which includes an opening of a pdf file like this:
var psi = new ProcessStartInfo
{
FileName = "cmd",
WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden,
UseShellExecute = false,
CreateNoWindow = true,
Arguments = $"/c start {filename}"
};
Process.Start(psi);
When this executes, the windows opens a dialog with the following message:
Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
The filename is a pdf file located in the LocalApplicationData, and I also have a database there, and the application is normally creating a database there and manipulates with it, so it should have a permission to access that folder. Also, when I run that pdf with double-click outside the application, the pdf opens normally with Chrome. How to solve this?
Unless you have a file there called "cmd" this won't work, as you have declared your filename as a string with the value "cmd".
I have a process that creates Windows internet shortcut files (.url). The files are encoded in UTF-8. The files contain an [InternetShortcut] section, where a URL= is specified. In this case, these are file:/// protocol URLs, which allow people to open paths on their LAN. The URLs are all UNC paths.
Normally the process works fine. But when a UNC path contains Unicode characters, such as the "í" from the code sample below, Windows is unable to "find" the URL when an end user tries to open the internet shortcut from Windows Explorer:
A sample file follows:
[InternetShortcut]
URL=file:///\\lt-splourde\d$\POC\Montería Test\
IconIndex=1
When I open the sample .url file above with a text editor, I see the path with the proper Unicode characters. But when I try to open the file from Windows Explorer, in order to access the path, Windows reports that it is unable to access the path, and it seems to mangle the Unicode characters.
The source code that creates these shortcuts follows:
private void CreateShortcutAsUrl(string uncRootPath, string name, string path, int projectId)
{
path = path + (path.EndsWith(#"\") ? "" : #"\");
using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(
String.Format(#"{0}\{1}\{2}.url", uncRootPath,
ShortcutsDirectory, new FileServerController().SanitizeNameForDirectory(name)),
false, Encoding.UTF8))
{
writer.WriteLine(#"[InternetShortcut]");
writer.WriteLine(#"URL=file:///" + path);
writer.Flush();
}
}
Does anyone know of a solution for this issue?
Thanks!
(I had posted this on superuser originally, but I feel like the content is more programmer oriented)
Try the .NET equivalent of InternetCanonicalizeUrl, which is System.Uri.EscapeUriString, so something like this (assuming your URI is in szOriginalString
String szEscapedString = System.Uri.EscapeUriString(szOriginalString);
Then write szEscapedString as the URI instead of the original.
Command Prompt its not working since i am using a generic path to open a excel file. Here is the error message:

If you are trying to open the file from your list of most recently used files, m
ake sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted.

Generic path code
excel = WIN32OLE::new("excel.Application")
path = "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../../../MasterFile.xls"
workbook = excel.Workbooks.Open(path)
worksheet = workbook.WorkSheets(1) # Get first workbook
site = worksheet.Range('A2').Value # Get the value at cell in worksheet.
workbook.Close
excel.Quit
Any Ideas
I believe you need to use an absolute path rather than a relative path when opening the file:
path = File.expand_path("../../../../MasterFile.xls", __FILE__)
Note that you will also need an additional '..' when using expand_path, since the first '..' is going back from the file.
I am working on writing a ruby script to iterate through a file containing a list of file paths to open in Microsoft Excel. I read the file like this:
file_names = IO.readlines('D:\TEST_1\file_names.txt')
Next, I create an array of file names from each line of the parsed file (thus containing an array of file paths). Finally, I loop through that array with the following code, to open the documents:
require 'win32ole'
xl = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application')
xl.Visible = 1
file_names.each do |file_name|
wb1=xl.Workbooks.Open(file_name)
ws1=wb1.worksheets(1)
end
That first call to parse file_names.txt produces this exception, which I am having difficulty understanding:
Test4.rb:6:in 'method_missing'
OLE error code:800A03EC in Microsoft Office
Excel 'D:\Test_1\1.xlsx' couldnot be found. Check the spelling of
the file name, and verify that the file location is correct.
if you are trying to open the file from your list most recently used
files, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved or deleted
HR Error code : 0x80020009 Exception occurred. from Test4.rb:6:in

This error does not appear when I pass a single file name (instead of a file path) as my parameter - so why do I get it here? Any help would be much appreciated.
At first look you are not using the variable "file_name" but a symbol :file_name.
file_array.each do |file_name|
wb1=xl.Workbooks.Open(file_name)
ws1=wb1.worksheets(1)
end
