Bug description: Error passing Word macro arguments
Description:
------------
I can call a Word macro without any argument ok. But when I pass a string
arguement to a Word macro, I get the following exception.
Source: Unknown
Description: Unknown
I discovered the following problem:
1. It works when a macro does not have argument. The macro can be in the
default macro file "Module/NewMacros" or other module file such as
"Module/MyMacros".
2. It works when a macro has one or more arguements when the macro is in
default macro file "Module/NewMacros".
It does not work when the same macro is copied to a different module file
such as "Module/MyMacros".
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// C:\testme.doc is any Word document
$word = new COM('Word.Application') or die('Start Word automation
failed.');
$word->Documents->Open('c:\testme.doc');
$arg1 = 'Some value';
// First test --> This works fine
//$word->Application->Run('phptest1');
// Second test --> This works fine
//$word->Application->Run('phptest2', $arg1);
// Third test --> This works fine
//$word->Application->Run('phptest3', $arg1, $arg1);
// Forth test --> This works fine
//$word->Application->Run('Normal.MyMacros.phptest1');
// Fifth test --> FAILED
$word->Application->Run('Normal.MyMacros.phptest2', $arg1);
// Sixth test --> FAILED
//$word->Application->Run('Normal.MyMacros.phptest3', $arg1, $arg1);
$word->Quit();
$word = null;
/*
// Word macros
Sub phptest1()
End Sub
Sub phptest2(arg1 As String)
End Sub
Sub phptest3(arg1 As String, arg2 As String)
End Sub
*/
?>
Expected result:
----------------
To run the test:
1. Create a dummy Word document C:\testme.doc".
2. Copy the three dummy procedures (phptest1, phptest2 and phptest3) to
Word's macro file "Normal/Module/NewMacros".
3. Create a new macro file "Normal/Module/MyMacros" and paste the same
three procedures in it.
4. Uncomment the line after each test case and keep lines for other test
cases commented.
5. Run each test case.
Case 1-4: No output. Just finish without error.
Case 5-6: Show the error below.
Actual result:
--------------
