Hi all,

I'm trying to control InDesign CS4 from a VB6 program and I want to
export the whole document in IDML format.

The following commands...

MyInDesign.XMLExportPreferences.ExportFromSelected = False
MyInDesign.ActiveDocument.Export idExportFormat.idXML, MyFileName,
False

...result in an XML file that consists of just two lines:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Root></Root>

How can I export the whole document to a IDML package?

Any help appreciated,
Wolfgang
