Re: LuaCOM - more questions

[Terry Bayne <tbayne@...>]

Fabio,

Thanks for spotting that, but still getting a type mismatch error:

	LUA: Calling word.Documents:Add
	Error executing lua code: [COM error:(E:\Blackdog\kibble\trunk\luacom\src\library\tLuaCOM.cpp,403):Type mismatch.]

Here is the lua code I am running:

	word = luacom.CreateObject("Word.Application")	
	MT = luacom.CreateObject("type.missing")
	assert(word)word.visible = true
	print("Calling word.Documents:Add")
	doc = word.Documents:Add()
	print("Back from Documents:Add()")

Any ideas?

Also I have tried passing MT to the Add() call like so:

	doc = word.Documents:Add(MT,MT,MT,MT)

Thanks
