InlineShape.Height throws exception "Command Failed"

[Malvika Shrivastava]

Hi Everyone,

Please go through the code below:

InlineShape il = doc.Sentences[i].InlineShapes[1];
float height = il.Height;

The second line is some times working fine but at times it throws an exception "Command Failed".

Kindly help me in this.

Thanks,
Malvika.

Are you sure that il has been assigned a value every time this error occurs? If doc.Sentences[i].InlineShapes[1] has no value, it's impossible to get it's height.

ya i am sure its always being assigned with a value because i first check if there is an inline shape or not.if i get an inline shape then only further processing is done.

Thanks.

for (i = 1; i <= doc.Sentences.C ount; i++)
{
if (doc.Sentences[i].InlineShapes.C ount > 0)
{
InlineShape il = doc.Sentences[i].InlineShapes[1];
float height = il.Height;
float var = 19.7f;
if (height == var)
{
ii_ty = ii_ty + 1;
i = bookmarkTestYou rself_New(doc, i);
}
}
}

First, edit your post and put your code between CODE-tags (the #-sign in the bar). Second, I asked for the full error message. Please add that as well.
