    Importing data from a Word 2010 form to Excel 2010.

    Hi,
    My question is very similar to post: http://excel.bigresource.com/Track/excel-qh8tFqoE/

    I have excatly the same problem as mentioned above. I have very little experience with VBA, so you have to excuse me for asking obvious questions. The solution provided by Marble2009 doesn't work when I apply it on a Office 2010 computer.
    Application.FileSearch is not used in Office 2010 (as far as I could read), and there might be other problems.

    What I need is the following: multiple Word 2010 forms (docx) -> txt -> 1 excel spreadsheet.

    I guess I need help on how to update the code to Office 2010.

    Best regards,
    mlang

    This is some code I wrote the other day to retrieve info from form fields on word docs saved in a particular folder which avoids using filesearch. It may be of use to you:

    You will need to set references to the Miscrosoft Forms and Microsoft Word object libraries in the Excel VBA editor.

    Hi Dom,
    Are there any updates to the file since you've originally posted it?
    Thanks,
