Attachment/Link woes in Presenter
I'm having issues with attachments and links in Presenter. We
are publishing locally and not necessarily using the LMS to
distribute the courseware.
I have read the online help file's disclaimer and the
TechNote about attachments not working in locally-published
presentations. Is there ANY way around this? The "workaround" they
give in the technote/helpfile is not working for me (create a
hyperlink within PPT that links to the file on a network drive.) I
think I'm not fully understanding how "links" are supposed to work
within a Presenter file. Any help would be appreciated.
The two things I want to do are:
1) Have hyperlinks to our company's intranet, actually work
within Presenter slides. (These are
http:// links within the PPT slides.) They work
for me, but not for others. (Is it a Flash Player security
setting??)
2) Have users be able to launch a .PDF attachment from the
Attachments (paperclip) button. I really don't care where it's
stored -- with the Presenter file on the intranet? Somewhere on our
network? Wherever it works.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Hey folks, I just wanted to report some findings after
looking at a couple of decks from other folks. I apologize in
advance for the long reply here, but there are points that I
believe warrant explaining.
First, a couple of items to get out of the way:
1. Using Presenter 6.0 build 432, using MS PowerPoint 2007
and I published locally.
2. Set up links to pdfs, html pages and MS Word 2007, with
the word file saved as a Word 2003 with ".doc" extension.
The hyperlink method within PowerPoint needs to be massaged
just a bit in order for the pathing to be rectified when the deck
is published. As far as I can tell, what I recently discovered is
that Presenter 6.0 likes to have
ALL associated files living within the
resources folder within the
data directory of published presentations. After several
rounds of tests, here's the process I used to acheive the results
and what I found:
I set up a project file and associated directories as
mentioned in my earlier post above. Bottom line: I have a project
folder that contains my ppt deck. Within that project folder, I
have another folder called
"localPublish". Lastly, inside the localPublish directory I
created one last folder called
"extAssets". The extAssets folder contains all my external
assests (pdfs, docs, html, etc). And for the sake of being clear,
I'm hoping that its obvious to everyone that the localPublish
folder will utlimately contain the published presentation. Think of
it this way: the extAssets directory is nested in the same location
of the published deck; this way, if you have to republish your ppt
file, the contents within the extAssets folder will NEVER be messed
with!
That said, to resolve the error in pointing to a bogus url, I
simply redirected a hyperlink in powerpoint:
../../extAssets/myWordDoc.doc
Once I republished the file and tested the playback, the word
document loaded and displayed properly (after waiting for Word to
launch of course!). Bottom line, it's working, and fortunately all
it took was a redirection of the link pointing to the asset I want
to display. Also, I tried publishing 2 ways: to my project folder
as well as the default My Adobe Presentations folder.
In both cases, each presentation had resolved links to
external files.
Again, I think that Presenter 6.0 is looking for assets
originating in the resources directory by default; by using the
"../../" syntax, we're telling Presenter to look 2 directories up
and out of the Resources folder. This redirection forces the
browser to hunt down the file outside of the Data folder and should
display the file(s) successfully.
Because I absolutely hate testing in an isolated manner (no
to mention sounding like a complete idiot if this doesn't work for
others!), what I'd like folks to do if possible: retype the
hyperlink as indicated above. Please test this yourselves and
report your findings here.
Again, I hope that helps!

Attachment Links are Not shown in Equipment After System Copy
We had recently a system copy from Pxx Client to Sxx Client.
On the P client we had attachments to equipment which was attached using IE02. We did a system copy but we could not find the attached links in the equipment on the S client.
The Content Server was also copied accordingly and an interface is already present between the S Client and Content Server.
Refer the screen shot to see the difference
This is source
This was in the target.
Can someone help why this difference is happening.

How display attachment links in a list view in SharePoint 2013?
Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to display attachment links in a list in SharePoint 2013. There are few resources online to achieve this in SP2010 and SP07. Your help is much appreciated.
Thank you.Hi Ram Sampath:
You can use Event Receiver and create another list(ListA) to record your attachment link.
Maybe your process is:
Users add list items and attachments
List event will be fired
Use Event Receiver to get attachment url and then Write into ListA
You also can refer to the following web site:

Add Attachment link doesn't open attachment window
I'm trying to debug a custom page, written by someone else. It's in the recruitment module, and delivered subpages HRS_CE_A_RES_SBP and are included to allow attach/view/delete of attachments.
When the Add Attachment link is clicked, it should open a window that lets the user enter a filename or browse, but on this custom page, nothing happens.
Because the delivered code is unmodified, I suspect that there is some setup that hasn't been done. The component does contain table HRS_APP_ATTACH, which includes subrecord FILE_ATTACH_SBR. The component also contains record FILE_ATTACH_WRK.
Can someone suggest my next step? Thanks.
Mike
HCM 9.0, PTools 8.49.20Generally Add attachment issues are enountered while setting up new regions for the reason URL not updated while setting up new region.
In this table PSFILE_ATTDET a row is inserted temporarily with Oprid and deleted once the specified file is trasferred mentioned url successfully.
Example: AddAttachment(&URL_ID, &ATTACHSYSFILENAME, &FILEEXTENSION, &ATTACHUSERFILE, &FILESIZE)
works when &ATTACHUSERFILE =file-name and &URL_ID=gerurl(url.urlname) are given properly.Please check these parameters. -
Attachment link is not visible- external content server
Hi All,
I have integrated an external content server to SAP
i have done following activities:
1) I have maintained content repository using Tcode OAC0
2) I have Maintained Global Doc Type (ZFININV Finance Invoice scan doc document class: TIF) using Tcode OAC2
3) i have maintained Link for Doc type ZFININV and assigned Object type: BKPF using tcode OAC3
4) I have all My documents scaned and residing there on my content server . So i have manually created entry for these documents in Table TOA01 .
5) I have maintained protocol using tcode OAA3
Function : Display Stored Document
Doc Class: FAX
communication type : HTTP
In application Maintenance i have used internet explorer as an application.
7) In tcode OAG4 : i have maintained settings for storage and display.
8) Now i can search document using Tcode OAAD. i can display document in my content server viewer
Now my customer wants that while doing business transaction , customer should be able to attach link of supporting document which is already residing there on my content server.
Say for example: I display a Finance document using tcode FB03. While doing maintenance of this document ,from the same screen , i want to attach supporting document (or link of the document) which is already archived there in my content server
but when i click on attachment list (using GOS) , i can not see any link which i can attach to this transaction
please suggest me .. whether i forgot any step Or is there any other way to do this requirement?
thanks
sandeep sharmaDear all,
as naveen replied in this thread:
Alteratively, in FB03, try using Environment -> Additional Assignments to see if it meets your requirements. You will have to explore a bit and do some trial and error tests for the solution as this is a particular requirement which you have got.
This is standard functionality provided by sap
Storing Incoming Document->Manual storing-> Assigning a Document that is Already Stored:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/4f/99386b446d11d189700000e8322d00/frameset.htm
For this additional assignment, the time at which the business object was created does not matter. It is also possible to assign other archived documents to existing business objects. An archived document is assigned using the function module ARCHIV_APPEND_DIALOG_META.
This additional assignment fulfils my requirement . but i cant see this option for other transaction (say for example ME51n or MM01 ) for which i can do this additional object assignment.
Is it possible to add this additional assignment option in another business transactions context menu? or anyother work around to fulfill this requirement...
thanks
sandeep

Delete Attachment link and the launchWebdynpro button in the UWL iview
Hi,
Can anyone help me in deleting or hiding the Attachment link and the launchWebdynpro button in the UWL iview. I dont want to do it in the iview properties which would affect all the tasks. Is there a way I can do it in the backend.\

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_DELETE'
EXPORTING

ABAP OO sales order object - how to attach link to VA03
I'm trying to build workflow using ABAP Objects instead of BOR. I created custom object for sales order according to blog "Getting started with ABAP OO for Workflow using the IF_WORKFLOW interface". It works correctly in my workflow but I would like to attach link to "browse sales order" (VA03) to workflow step. When using BOR I can attach link my binding BOR objest to AdhocObjest step container element. The same way does not work for ABAP OO object. The error message is "The object categories 'CL' (source) and 'BO' (target) are not compatible".
Is there any way to add this link to attachments when sales order object is OO not BOR?At least make sure that you have a default method 'browse' in your class. I mean that make a method for "displaying" or "browsing" or whatever you want to happen when you click the object, and make it default. OR actually if I remember correctly there is a default method existing already, but put your code to there.
Also try this:
-Create a container element of type 'sales order' into your task
-Bind the sales order object from workflow to the the task

Attachment Link To Specify Folder
Hi,
Need some help on the sharepoint attachment link to direct go to specify folder. Is it any possibility that during user clicking on the attach file button, the choose file to upload folder is point to our specify define folder ?
Very appreciate if someone can give some idea on how to do it.
Thanks !
LeongHi,
As far as I know, we cannot point the choose file path of attachment to specify define folder. The behavior is handled by browser's memory.
Thanks,

GOS - Attachment - Link is not deleting from SRGBTBREL
I have created custom transaction and this have option to attach desktop files (ie Word, Xls, PPT, PDF) etc into this transaction. For this i am using class CL_GOS_MANAGER.
After the attachment sometimes users will delete the attachments from attachment list.
My problem is some attachment links are not deleted completely from SRGBTBREL (Link Table) . Because of this next time users displaying the attachment list still the deleted entries are showing in the list.
If users double clock it is giving a error message "Document does not exist" ( message class SO and message Number 006) .
Any body come across this kind of scenario?
Given below is the code for deleting the attachments
* Object creation of GOS View
create object gos_view
exporting
ip_mode = 'D'. " Display Mode
* Start GOS Service for attachement view
i_viewobj-objtype = 'YATT_ATTA'.
i_viewobj-objkey = yatthdr-docno.
call method gos_view->start_service_direct
exporting
ip_service = 'VIEW_ATTA'
is_object = i_viewobj.

Thanks for your info. I already saw this note. Please share if you any info how we can delete the SRGBTBREL links completely using class CL_GOS_MANAGER?
I already run the program RSGOSRE01 (suggested in the note 569123) But nothing is shown. But the document showing in the SRGBTBREL links it have attachment
For example , the following are the links from SRGBTBREL

Object visualization to open attachment link in UWL decision task workitems
We are using Object Visualization (in t-code SWFVISU) to open an I-view when you click the attachment link in decision task workitems. I sort of have this working. My issue is that I need to pass parameters to the I-view. I'm not sure how to do that. I've seen some documentation on dynamic parms in SWFVISU (DYNPARM) but I don't see that option (maybe we are on an older version). Maybe we can via XML files? I've done Task visualization and edited xml files but I'm not sure if we can do similar code for object visualization. Does anyone know how to do this? Have any samples/documentation?

is it possible to remove the link ONLY for certain tasks? There is a suggestion here: Re: Disable attachment in preview of UWL : possible ?, but it is not working (can't see any task to choose under "object visualization").
Do you have an idea?
