Hello,

I'm looking for a property called readyState [1], but I can only find it for
IE browser objects. I'm unsuccessful in locating something like this for
Word objects.


Why: I'm trying to detect when, within powerpoint, the "Send To > Microsoft
Word"
process is done.

I posted to this newsgroup to see if perhaps you guys would know anything
about this, since
this might fall in the realm of document management (ie: processes in
preparing documents)

Hi Krystian

You have asked this question several times in several newsgroups. The answer
is not going to change. There is no way to detect whether Word is "busy" or
"not busy".

Hope this helps.

Hi All,
I am also looking for such APIs to detect when Word 2007 finishs
processing embedded pptx while user click the embedded pptx object
each time he opens it.
Shauna Kelly's reply disappoints me much.

I'm sorry that you're disappointed, but that doesn't change the
answer. There is no such API.
