Create/Edit Word documents from Form 6 in the web

How can I create/edit Microsoft Word documents from a form running under IAS.
In client/server I can do it using OLE2.

On the Web the OLE2 option would still work if your Forms server is on a windows machine with word on it. The files will be created on the server and you can get them to the client with the web.show_document built-in.
If you want to create them on the client machine directly you need a Java bean that will activate the COM interface.

Create/edit word document from in Forms 6

I want to create and or edit word documents stored in the operating system whose name (and path) is stored in the database. I have a form with a field of the doc name, how can I call word with the file name?
I've never used OLE before so be specific.
Thanks

I've never used OLE before so be specific.So you know what to use. Look at Forms Help. There is no better place for this. You will get examples there.
But Remember If you are using Forms on WEB this will give problems as OLE is not supported on WEB.

The Word document should be editable after the conversion is complete. What happens when you try to edit it?

Create MS Word documents from data in an Apex Form/Report

My requirement is to create editable RTF form letters from data managed by an Apex application. I do not have BI publisher available and am looking at using the XSL-FO route. Effectively I want the user to select the desired data in the Apex application, hit a button and be presented with a word document containing the data, which they can then customise.
I know how to set Apex up to create PDFs based on reports using embedded XSL-FO but PDFs are not editable extra steps by the user. Also the user could export data to CSV and mailmerge with a word template but thats extra work for the user too.
In the past I've used PLSQL/XML/XSL-FO with .NET to do what I want here by generating an XML file with PLSQL and using .NET to associate the XML file to XSLT/XSL-FO template files creating output as varied as .doc, .ps and .html files.
Any ideas on acheving the same flexibility with Apex would be greatly appreciated. As my googling and forum hunting has not turned up much.
Thanks

Hi FunkyMonkey,
Do you know Docufy | Simplify with docufy ? It's an APEX application that lets you create/generate/edit word templates. Else JasperReports Library | Free software downloads at SourceForge.net lets you generate a multitude of report formats (RTF/pdf/docx/xlsx/xml/etc.) you can use iReports to easily create xml templates for the reports, It's a lot simpler then xsl-fo.

Storing/Editing Word Documents in Forms 6i

Has anyone done this in 6i ?
Apparently, the only solution is to write some JavaBeans. Has anyone done this and are there any samples that would allow us to do this other than the samples on Technet as unfortunately they do not help much.
It seems as though this is a fairly common request so I am hoping that someone has done it and will be able to help.
Thanks in advance for any help on this issue.
Andy Penver

Thanks,
I think it is better to use LOB's instead of LONGRAW in 8.1.6 ?
Can you edit formatted text (WORD document) if it is stored in a CLOB or BLOB datatype.
Has anyone got any pointers to examples of storing formatted text and being able to edit it.
Thanks

In acrobat 9 why can it never create a word document from a pdf correctly?

So I have acrobat 9 and because I have lots of issues with editing PDFs in it I occasionally need to convert the pdf into a word to help with the editing. However it never even comes remotely close to converting it correctly. I mean it is not even close. and the PDF are very simple, no graphs no pics just text. Very frustrating/.

GIGO.
If the PDF's "under the hood" build is good then good stuff is exported.
If the PDF's "under the hood" build is garbage then garbage is exported.
Using a PDF creation process that actually has full compliance with the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1) is a prerequisite for "Good stuff In".
Some (but not most) PDF producers do this. Adobe's "do it".
As well if such a PDF is a well-formed Tagged PDF then export is pleasingly good.
The design function of "Tagged" PDF is two-fold.
(1) Support Accessible PDF
(2) Support export of PDF page content.
Such export can be achieved by Acrobat 8 Pro, Acrobat 3D, Acrobat 9 Pro, Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, Acrobat X Pro and Acrobat XI Pro.
Have done it / do it with these.
Not meaning to be unpleasant here but the problem is with the PDF you have and not Acrobat.
Be well...

Producing a WORD document from RoboHelp

Hi,
I am trying to produce a WORD document from RoboHelp using the Single Source Layout. The Output View says," Waiitng for Project Documentation VBA macros to be registered." I then receive an error message stating that WORD is not responding.
How do I resolve this issue? Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Hi there
Sorry, but my crystal ball is broken again so I can't tell what version or flavor of RoboHelp you are using. Nor am I able to discern what version of Word is on your system.
Can you help us out a tad and tell us this info?
Thanks... Rick

Migrate word documents from external system to SharePoint 2007 site

Hi All,
I have a requirement wherein I have to migrate around 2500 word documents from one of the system to SharePoint system.
Please note that my client is using MOSS version of SharePoint.
Also some excel files are embedded in to some of the word documents.
Those word documents are stored in different system (other than SharePoint). I have to migrate them into my MOSS system.
Is it possible OOB. I suppose doing it manually will consume a lot of time and client wants it do be done in minimum time.
Is there any tool readily available or do I have to develop one in visual studio 2005? If yes could some one please share the code as I do not know how to proceed on this.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Please respond. Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks & regards,
Manish

Hi,
From your description, you want to get numerous files into SharePoint Document Libraries.
After you log on to the SharePoint document library->click Actions->followed by
Open with Windows Explorer. After Windows Explorer opens, you can upload and download files and folders using the standard copy-and-paste operation.
Refer to the article:

How to edit a converted Word Document from a PDF file

how to edit a converted Word Document from a PDF file

Hi Edit Converted Word Doc,
What's happening when you try to edit the file? Have you tried triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit?
Please let us know what sort of trouble you're running into. It would also be helpful to know how the PDF file was created, and what version of Word you're using.
Best,
Sara

Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only. However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is alr

Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
What we found from out testing:
- The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
- The file can be closed and Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
- Also, until the Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file.
Example Scenario:
- User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
- Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
- User 1 saves his file and closes it - but Dreamweaver is still open.
- User 2 also saves his file and leaves Dreamweaver open.
- The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
- If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
- Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
Other information:
- Files are opened directly from the server
- Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
- Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
- The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
- The users are usually working on the files all day
- It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
Anyone know if this is a known issue?
Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
Thanks

Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

Odonnells52 you will still need to install Adobe Acrobat Professional prior to being able to make edits to PDF or utilize Acrobat. By default the installation files have been saved to your download folder.
If you continue to face difficulties with the Adobe Download Assistant then please see Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant.
You can also download the installation files directly from Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X if you are unable to locate the downloaded installation files.
