Bulk uploads of Word docs to Portal

my client wishes to upload approx. 50 word docs from their existing file server to Portal. ....manually posting the docs into an existing content area is prohibitive.
Any hints on the most efficient way to bulk upload the docs into portal????
thanks
Sharon (443)994-4084

this solution sounds great, only 1 problem:
when I reach step 4 (click the "unzip" link.....), I do not see an 'unzip' link. I am logged on as the owner of the folder(with cascading privileges).
Any thoughts on why the 'unzip' link is not being displayed? the online help suggests that the unzip link will automatically be displayed when the 'zip file' item type is chosen(which I've done).
How about via a zip file:
1) zip the docs
2) create a new item as a zip type
3) upload the zip file
4) click the "unzip" link next to the new item
Portal will unzip the files and if the directory structure was stored with the zip, Portal will attempt to recreate the actual folders they existing in on the client. If the folders are already created, portal will put the docs in the appropiate folders.

  • How to upload a Word doc from MacBook to iCloud?

    How to upload a Word doc from MacBook to iCloud?

    Just going to throw in again: iCloud is to keep's Apple's products on Apple's devices synced up between multiple devices. It isn't for sharing. It isn't for storage.
    iCloud is the Apple-branded cloud (see the "i"). It isn't meant to be a completely free-of-charge realization of the future that all the tech people keep calling "the cloud."
    It adds a lot of very nice functionality to Apple's own products, yet people are screaming their heads off about not getting free disk space and free bandwidth to use for whatever they want online. Apple added functionality, but tons of people seem to think they took away functionality. These things were never promised with iCloud.

  • Can Form Fields from uploaded WORD docs become Sharepoint columns ?

    Hello -
    We are in the process of uploading many Word docs from Shared drives to Sharepoint (2010 )
    Some of the Word documents have information stored in Form Fields. For Example : BuyerName & SellerName. These fields need to be used in SP for sorting, filtering etc.
    We have tried creating columns on Sharepoint with the same names (BuyerName & SellerName) but the information from the Word docs does not display in the corresponding Sharepoint columns once the docs are uploaded.
    Any advice on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated !

    Check if this helps you

    HELP!!! i have a mac g 5 and i uploaded Microsoft Office 2008 for my 90 year old mother. Now when she tries to open earlier word docs, they won't open at all  :-(  what happened?  I SEE THE WORD IN THE NAVIGATION BAR BELOW, but when she tries to open a word doc, the navigation bar opens and closes around the Word symbol and nothing happens :-(  i'm going crazy :-( PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP AND LET ME KNOW WHAT TO DO?

    If you have not already done so, repair permissions and restart your computer.  Or boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu.  When done, restart back to your desktop, repair permissions and restart your computer. Suggest that you post in the Microsoft Office for Mac Forums if the above does not work. 
     

  • Inserting and retrieving Word docs from a custom table with LOB column

    Hi,
    I'm sure I'm not looking around in the right place for some docs on this.
    Basically I need to build a custom interface in Web PL/SQL to allow a MS Word doc to be uploaded for a user's browser and also a mechanism to retrieve the doc.
    Not sure what is the 'best' column datatype to use for this either.
    Portal Forms are out of the question due to inflexibility of application.
    Cheers,

  • I apply to jobs online and need to provide my resume, which is in Word on Dropbox, but when I hit "Browse" to find Dropbox or any other repository all I can pull are photos. How can I get to my Word doc?

    I need to attach a Word doc when online forms require it.  When I Browse for a file, all the iPad and the iPhone allows are photos or videos. I have these docs in Dropbox and Skybox but I cannot get to them from Browse. How can I do this?

    Take a look at the iCab Mobile browser for the iPad. It allows document uploads if you configure it properly in the settings. iCab Mobile also works with DropBox.
    You may have to download the documents to the iPad and upload from there, but it might be worth a look here.
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icab-mobile-web-browser/id308111628?mt=8
    This is copied from their website.
    How can I upload any file (not only photos) under iOS 6?
    Unlike the web engine of iOS 5.x and older, the web engine of iOS 6 has now basic upload support as well. But it only supports uploading photos and videos from the photo album. And this will only work under iOS 6.
    The upload capability of iCab Mobile works under all iOS releases and supports uploading photos videos and all other file types. It can even scale down photos before uploading to save bandwidth.
    But iCab's own custom upload capability has the disadvantage, that because of several iOS restrictions, it can not work on all web pages. Therefore under iOS 6, iCab Mobile provides a switch in the settings where the user can choose, if iCab should use the upload capability from the iOS (only photos, works with some more web pages) or the capabilities of iCab (photos and all other files, can't work on all web pages).
    So if you need to upload other files than just photos, make sure that you set the option "Upload files via" in the settings to "iCab Mobile".
    This is a link to the FAQ on the site.

  • HT204394 how do i put microsoft word docs onto icloud

    how do i put microsoft word docs onto icloud so that i can transfer to my mac book

    Not really.
    You can sign into iCloud.com from a web browser on your PC.
    Open Pages and drag the Word document in or click the Gear on the top right and upload.
    This will convert it to a Pages document. It will be accessible to you through iCloud and the Pages app on your iOS devices. You can always redownload the file from iCloud as a Word document.
    As with any document conversion, this may alter the formatting.

  • Unique issue with PDF to WORD .doc conversion with Acrobat Pro - any ideas?

    I have been unable to solve the following issue when converting (save as...) PDF documents to Microsoft Word .doc using numerous methods. This could either be an issue that would be fixed in Acrobat Pro itself, or in MS Word - posting to the Adobe forums first.
    PREFACE: I am attempting to use the converted .doc file with translation applications/software. Google Translator Toolkit is what I use the most, but ALL other translators are having this very same issue with the .doc file. --The source PDFs are product information from drug manufacturers in various countries that I need to have translated to English. I do not have access to their source documents, as they do not provide their own source docs for obvious reasons.
    ALSO: I cannot use Google Translator toolkit to translate from PDFs directly - if you do that, it will attempt to translate a PDF and then export in an .html file, but it does not get the exact spacing of the sentences correctly, which leads to errors in translating - key things such as "can take with alcohol" and "do not take with alcohol". So that's out!
    I am not having any problems with the resultant .doc file in MS Word itself. It looks right, the spacing matches the original PDF source perfectly, prints correctly, etc... Reference here on a product info sheet from Austria in German:
    The problem: This is a screenshot from Google Translator Toolkit - the right side of the image - the spacing in the lettering from the .doc file I am uploading is not being read correctly, resulting in untranslated gibberish. (Note: this isn't a problem with the translation applications or software -- all are having this issue with .doc files converted from .pdf - this issue isn't present with any old .doc file that wasn't converted from a .pdf) -- It's definitely got something to do with some kind of embedded data in the .doc file that I cannot isolate!!)
    My settings in Adobe Pro (convert from PDF to .doc):
    Page layout: Flowing Text (this prevents the resultant .doc from having all of those text boxes, which also don't then work in translators)
    Include comments: True
    Include images: True
    Run OCR if needed: True
    Notes:
    -I have run OCR text recognition on the source PDF files in it's specific language.
    -I have edited the accessibilty of the PDF and have run the tag recognition and quick checks (to see if they solved the issue, which it did not - tagged or untagged, same problems!)
    -I have exported the .doc BACK to PDF using MS Word's function, which results in a great looking tagged PDF. THEN I re-saved this new PDF back as a .doc - same issue.
    -I have tried saving the PDF in all of the other formats that the translators accept. All have different issues. The only one that works consistently is saving to a .txt (plain)... The best is a .doc to .doc conversion, with all the original spacing. (I am not spending hours reformatting a .txt translation in word)...
    I can't seem to find where this spacing data is in the .doc file!!!! (Changing the fonts, sizes, margins -- doesnt fix this either). I have tried so many methods...
    Any thoughts on other things to try in Adobe Pro (or Word)?
    EDIT: Here's an additional tidbit of info that may be the key to this... There's some kind of coding that is in the .doc that Adobe Pro converted from the source PDF that doesnt display in Word, but that is being seen by the translation programs....... I have no idea what these are, but I want to remove them!

    I would suggest you look at the fonts that are being used. It may be a font issue that is not properly being read by the translation program.

  • When I converted a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How can I solve this problem?

    When I tried to convert a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How do I solve this problem?  I don't know how to change it from Read Only.

    Dear Sara
    Thank you very much for sending the converted file.  Yes, I am able to edit it - that will be very useful to me and I appreciate your help.
    Referring to your previous message when you said you'd converted via Acrobat and not Acrobat.com, I'm converting via Acrobat.com because that's the only option that is shown (how do I convert via Acrobat? - perhaps that would be more successful).  I'm using the Export PDF website, and the OCR is enabled to "Recognize text in English UK".  However, I've just tried converting a different LPA pdf form, this time for Health & Welfare https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245571/LPA114_He alth_welfare_LPA.pdf and again I have the same problem as before.  I've altered it from "Read only" and thought I'd then be able to enter text, but "Drawing Tools" is shown in the pane and I'm unable to enter anything onto the form - everything appears to be in images.  Also, the lettering on the heading of' page 1 has become jumbled, with the word "Public" overlaying the word "Guardian."  Any suggestions as to what it is I'm doing wrong would be welcome - I don't like to be beaten!
    Regards,
    Judith.

  • A font not used in an MS Word doc is showing up in the PDF properties and won't embed

    A friend needed a new manuscript uploaded to a publishing site. I retyped it in MS Word (2007) using NO formatting shortcuts and using only ONE font (Georgia)  for both body and headers/footers. Placed all the jpg illustrations on the pages. Then saved it in the required PDF format for the publisher's system to use. They also require that ALL fonts/symbols are embedded. Even ONE character that is not embedded will void the file. I'm now on attempt 17.
    When I checked the properties on this PDF file, the font I used, including italics, symbols and bolding, are noted as embedded. However, it also says that there is ARIEL font (which I did not use) that is NOT embedded. AARRGGHH.
    This gal wants her book ready in two weeks. HOW can I resolve this? Any ideas? I saved it once through MS Word using the PDF option, but also tried it through my Photoshop Elements. Same result. My PC uses Windows 8 (NOT 8.1) and the Adobe Reader XI.0.7. The Java files are the most current update as of yesterday.

    It seems to me to be a problem of MS Word, not Adobe Reader.
    Also, I don't know how you can convert a Word doc to PDF with Photoshop Elements.

  • MS Word integration with SAP CRM: can a PDF be created from the MS Word doc

    21/11
    Gurus,
    I know have a better understanding of the topic but still have 2 open questions.
    I now know that StreamServe cannot read .DOC files but can read and work with .PDF files.
    Since we are in a SAP forum and not a StreamServe forum,
    1/ I am wondering if SAP CRM 2007 can convert the MS Word generated and populated documents into .PDF. Possibly immediatly.
    2/ Can the MS Word generated and populated documents be saved by SAP CRM 2007 as .XML files?
    Thanks again.
    Dear All,
    On my project, there is a requirement to generate ad-hoc and amendable letters in CRM (2007).
    We might have +150 letters so I am thinking about using MS Word integration with SAP CRM to deliver this.
    With SAP CRM 2007, I understand that it is indeed possible to generate WebServices that will then be consumed by Word templates through the mail merge functionality. So agents will not have to enter BP name, address and so on. All this can be done by configuration which is great.
    My point of concern is how to integrate this design to StreamServe for printing purpose (we do not want to go into local printing)
    Can StreamServe collects the Word generated document?
    Should this Word document be converted as PDF before or can StreamServe do it?
    Should StreamServe exploits the XML contents within the Word generated document?
    Thanks for your help and insights about this.
    Brice.

    Hi Chris,
        Your advice helps me a lot, thank you.
        I upload an XML-Format template Word Doc to server as a MIME Object.
        When OfficeControl is started in Web Dynpro, OfficeControl automatically open the XML-Format template.
       For the first time, I get the XString-type Context attribute bind to the content of the Word Doc,
       then translate it to string, I got the XML-format content, it's great!
       However, after the first time, when I input any new contents in MS Word in Web Dynpro,
       no matter I execute "Ctrl + S" or click the "savedocument" button,
       when I translate the XString Context attribute to String, I got messy code. (but the first time, it is good plain text)
       I use the function module: ECATT_CONV_XSTRING_TO_STRING (good for first time, dump after first time),
       SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY, SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING (good for first time, messy code after first time).
       My Demo source code is in: (system) SMV --> (local object) zhaode --> (Dynpro Component) ztest_office_control
       core source code is as:
       clear itab.
      CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
        EXPORTING
          BUFFER = lv_datas
        IMPORTING
          OUTPUT_LENGTH = lv_length
        TABLES
          binary_tab = itab.
      CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING'
        EXPORTING
          input_length = lv_length
          mimetype = 'text/plain; charset=utf-8'
        IMPORTING
          text_buffer = lv_datas_string
          output_length = lv_data_len
        TABLES
          binary_tab = itab.
        Can you give me some advice?
    Best Regards,
    Derek
