Automate adding text box to PDFs: strange issue

Hello everyone,

 

I have an Access database with some VBA code in it that currently only works on a Windows 7 virtual machine with 32bit Office 2010 and Acrobat 8. I’m trying to get it to work on a Windows 10 machine with 64bit Office 365 and Acrobat DC. It uses cells in an Excel file to look for PDFs in a source folder, copies them to a destination folder, renames them 1.pdf, 2.pdf etcetera, and adds a text box with the correct number to the first page of the PDF.

When I press the button to do this, I get the following error:

Error number -2147221164

Description: Class not registered

which points to the following code:

When I ignore this error, the program starts copying and renaming PDFs, but does not add the text box to them. Each PDF results in the following error:

Error number 91:

Description: Object variable or With block variable not set

which points to this code:

Curiously, the whole process works when:

  • At least one of the destination PDFs has been created and is opened in Acrobat DC when I press the button (this will create all destination files and add text boxes to all but the opened file); or
  • The first source PDF file to be used is opened in Acrobat DC when I press the button (this creates all destination files with text boxes)

Can anyone explain this behavior? Full code below. The button executes BuildQueu (blnSim = false). The snippet that should add text boxes starts from the second image.

My, that's a lot of code. Nobody's going to read that, for sure...

Anyway, please check on the problem machine: what is your exact Acrobat version (not "latest" please)? And, is it Acrobat Reader, Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard?

I know it's a ton of code, I did not write it and I'm such a novice I don't know if I could have left anything out...

 

The exact Acrobat version is Pro DC 2019.021.20061.
