Can I create a XSL function and use it in the Word Template

I have a complicated logic (complicated if i have to repeat it 400 to 500 times) for determining if I should show a null expression. If the value is null or equal to 0 show N/A else show the value.
If I have to repeat this over and over again and it turns out to need an update this would be a nightmare. But I don't have time to waste on a wild goose chase either. If I have to do something a couple thousand times i better get started basically.
Can I create a function in the word template then call it throughout the word template for each field I have to check?
Have a link to a tutorial that is doing this?

If you really want to have a function, you have choice of using subtemplates (either RTF or XSL)
You can check for steps here
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/overview/bip-subtemplate-1-132933.pdf
But if you have functions or use the code directly you anyway need to modify your 400-500 fields.
i.e. either
<?xdoxslt:ifelse(COLUMN='','NA',COLUMN)?>
or <?call:template_name?>

Fill the word template using Java

Can you please give me a sample code in java to invoke the VB program on my machine ?It's not quite that simple. You'll need to study up on JNI, and if you're not that familiar with C or C++, this may take a while.
Good luck.

OAF Help needed to customize the Information Template region

Hi All,
We are working on 11.5.9 to 11.5.10 application upgrade project.
We have created an information template in the Information Template setup where we have defined couple of Date fields. These fields are appearing as free text entry fields on the iProc screen. We want user to enter date in a particular date format (say DD-MON-YYYY). We dont want to attach a value set as this approach will display awful amount of date records in the drop down list.
We tried modifying the region XML file (InfoTemplateRN.xml) used for the information template. Here, the attributes defined in the Information template are getting divided into two equal groups and each group is getting displayed in one region. The InfoTemplateRN.Attribute1 and InfoTemplateRN.Attribute2 fields are used to display each group(group of attribute defined in the template). The Attribute1 and Attribute2 elements are of item type Switcher and whatever changes we are making to these field are appearing for other text-input fields(other than the date fields) which are linked to these regions.
Is it possible to control/manipulate the behavior of a specific text-input field?
Any information on this will be of great help.
Thanks,
Sachin

Can I "break" or customize the theme templates?

When inserting jpegs on to pages, am I constrained to preset dimensions?
Or is there a way to make a jpeg a little bigger or a little smaller?
When I insert a vertically oriented jpeg in to a horizontally oriented "One page type", iPhoto automatically centers the picture on the page- is there a way to move it to the left or to the right?
I've got the same questions for text blocks as well...

Thinkingman:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You cannot change the size of the frame but can change the size of the photo inside it. Double click on the photo and a slider bar will appear. You can increase the size and then move the photo around a little bit as necessary. You won't be able to make the photo smaller than the size of the frame.
As far as the vertical, we're stuck with iPhoto's placement of it. Same with the text boxes.

How to use the Report Generation Toolkit to get a list of bookmarks in a Word Template

I am working on a project where I will need to use the Report Generation Toolkit to fill out a fairly long Word Template. The MS Office Report Express VI can only have inputs for a maximum of 17 bookmarks which is not nearly enough for what I am needing to do.
I'm wondering if there is some way to use the lower level report generation VIs to read the word template and return a list of the bookmark names as a 1d array of string. The dialog box that you use to set up the Express VI has this capability but I'm not finding a way to scan the document programatically.
I'm sure I can't be the first person to run into this issue and I'm hoping that someone out there has found a good solution.
Solved!

Wordsub.llb should be somewhere in your Labview folder on your local drive. The path to it in my install is: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\addons\_office\_wordsub.llb
Also what specific problem are you referring to about 17 bookmarks? Is that the limit on the express style VI for filling them in from LV? If so what you will need to do is to use the lower level function 'Word Insert Field' under Word Advanced VIs. You will need to supply the VI the name of the bookmark and the text you want to insert.

Problem with the XML in Word 2007 (Word Template)

Hi Experts,
i am new on CRM 2007 and i have a problem with the XML Structure of the Word Template.
First i built a Web Service Design Tool. Then i saw on the Testpage, that it works.
So i started the Document Templates and created a new Template. Object Type was BUS2000126 - CRM Business Activity. Web Service was my created and tested Web Service Tool.
As i opened the Word 2007 with the XML-Structure, i recognized, that there was something wrong.
The Responce on my Testpage from the Web Service Tool had the following structure:
response (test.types.p1.CrmostZlaWord5ReadResponse)
   Output (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010RoszlaWord5001)
        ZlaWord5 (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010Rosbtorder)
            Administrativeheaderoforder (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010Rosbtorderhea001)
                 Partiesinvolvedofheader (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010Rosbtheaderpa001)
                     Allpartiesinvolved (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010Rosbtpartnera002[]) Displaying 3 elements of 3
                          element1 (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010Rosbtpartnera002)
                               Btpartneraddress (test.types.p1.CrmostZla010Rosbtpartnera001)
My Problem is now, that the XML-Structure got not that point "element1".
Instead of "element1" there is the point "item" in my XML-Structure in Word 2007.
I guess that is the Problem why i am not getting the fields of the Btpartneraddress filled in my Word.
Can anyone help me? Or put me in the right direction that i can change the XML?
Thanks for your help
André

Hi andré, I guess the issue is coming from the fact that you selected "AllPartiesInvolved" and that may contain any numbers of entries. So when you test your webservice, you put a key and then get a result for that key, and in that case you might get "element1" until "element3" for example if there was 3 partners involved in you activity.
But, when you design your template, you don't have a key at that moment, so in the Web Service structure, you have "items" which stands for all the possible entries you might retrieve at runtime. I guess you could use an index in your template to specify which item you need, but this is quite hasardeous, so i would be you, I would not design my web service to use "AllPartiesInvolved" but rather a specific Partner type like contact person for instance.

Can I export the data collected in a PDF Form to a Word Template?

I work in the legal field and constantly have to draft the same legal documents over and over. I would like to creat a form that allows me to collect the data I fill in as well as export that data into the word templates for legal document drafts. Is this possible?

Report Generation - Word Template

Hi,
I am trying to write a program that captures up to 873 different scope shots.
At the end, the program will generate a Word Report with all scope shots and measured parameters.
I have used the Word Template in the past and created field for each parameters. However, this approach will not be efficient with this complex test. The report format of each test is shown below with the read box indicating the field where data will be plugged in by LabVIEW.
To create the word template for entire tests can create unnecessary post processing to delete the part of the test that user didn't run. If user ran only 3 tests then he would have to delete other 870 templates which will not be cost efficient. Also, this could create unnecessary programming mess that is not very flexible.
My questions -- is there any way I can copy this template below as I run the test? Rather than creating a word template for 873 different test for which I may only run part of it, can I copy the template based on number of test that user would like to run?
Any pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chetna

Example of the scope data figure:
Figure Error! No text of specified style in document.‑1. □
1. □
2. □
3. □
4. □
Test Conditions:Vin=□V, Vout=□V: □A Temp=□C Mode=□Fs=□Serial #=□

Hi Vivek,
I have LabVIEW 8.5 Development version and the report generation tool kit. I will be writing VI to fill the data in and generate a word report with Up to 873 different tests. The template that I attached is the sample template for only one test, I will be doing 873 tests. The sample test template consists of scope shot and some measured parameters.
My situation - the VI that I will be writing will fill in the sample template that I attached for 873 times. For me to generate a word report for all tests, I would have to create a report template with 873 sample templates. Where there is a red box, I would have to create a field for each box so the LabVIEW will know where to put the data in.
Well, that is lot of work in the first place. Secondly, to keep up with 873 different permuation fields can create lot of unnecessary programming mess. Lastly, if the user decide to run only part of the test, then there would be lot of empty test templates. If user decide to run only 10 tests the final report will have 860 empty boxes. That is not efficient.
My goal is to create the word report using just one sample template rather than 873. I would like to copy the sample template based on number of tests user defines.
My question is- Is there any way to copy the sample test template that I attached using the report generation toolkit?

Creating Activities in CRM using Word Templates and Web Services??

Hi,
This functionality can be achieved through Adobe Interactive Forms from what I have learnt through demos etc. We are checking the feasibility of using with Word Templates instead.
This thread has multiple questions:
We are trying to set up the activity creation as mentioned in the CRM70 system.
1) At this point, finished the retrieval of information from the CRM Activity into a Word Template using a READ Web Service. Subsequently synchronized this with outlook and can see the Word document in the outlook item. Not able to open the same in Outlook, since it comes over as a XML document type. "Cannot open as there is a problem with the contents. ">" expected, line so and so...is the message
2) I created a Web Service that writes as well into CRM and would like to use this from the Word Template to create the activity in CRM
2a) Can the word template be incorporated with buttons that can trigger creation in CRM, similar to Adobe "Execute" etc
2b) If yes, and If there are some custom fields that I add to the activity transaction, in the UI, can I populate these with input from the Word Template, as well
Regards,
Ashwin

Hell Wregs,
You can create the Product in CRM GUI,by using Transaction:COMMPR01,not mandatory to have WebUI..,
but b4 that you need to set up Product Hierarchy and Product category under which the Products can be created.
Use Transaction:COMM_HIERARCHY Transaction to do this.
Hope this helps
let me know if any further questions
Thanks & Regards

Word Templates

Hi
Can anyone say how we can edit the word template(dochmnl1) which is used when we export sales or purchasing documents to MS-Word?
Regards
Louis

Hi Louis
The templates are stored in separate folders in the WordDocs folder per language. Select the correct one based on your localization. In Microsoft Word, open the template file you want to change (there are 4 to choose from). You will notice that there are four additional toolbars (right click on your Word toolbars for list). These represent the SAP Business One fields that are pre-linked for you. You can select more from the drop down list of these toolbars. You can also delete SAP fields on the template as needed. You will notice that the linked fields are highlighted in gray. Ordinary text fields (not linked to SAP) are not highlighted and can also be deleted or changed as required. You can change the font size, colour, bold, italics, etc. of both linked and non linked fields as you wish.
Hope this helps
Kind regards

Unable to Preview barcode font fields in Word Template Builder PDF Preview

Insert document expiration date in a Word template

Hello all,
I have a problem I hope anyone can help me with. I need to include a column in Document Library with the Document expiration date and after that, include that expiration date into the Word templates I have in that library.
In order to do that, I created a date column (not a calculated one) called "ExpDate" with a default value of Today + 365 as I want the document to expire one year after its creation. After that, I edit the word templates I have associated to the
document library so as to include the new "ExpDate" column as a Quick part.
The problem I find is the following: When I create a new document based in the document templates (through content types), the user has the chance to insert an expiration date (as it is metadata) or leave it empty (the column is not defined as mandatory). If
the user leaves the expiration date empty, the new column is filled with the default value (today + 365 days) but when I open the word document I see the name of the column [ExpDate] instead of the default value.
Is there a way of forcing the document information panel to be filled with the default value?
Do you imagine an alternative solution to the requirement of including the expiration date inside the document without having to be defined by the user?
Thanks a lot.
Regards.

Can someone let us know where we are going wrong. It would be of great help if someone can give the list of the steps to be followed.
Appreciate your prompt response.

Pages with word templates

I'm writing my thesis and my school uses a MS Word template... has anyone had experience with using Word templates in Pages? Will it be a nightmare or relatively easy -I don't want to spend hours and hours reformatting. Thanks for your feedback.

Pages should open the Word template although you might have to change the extension from .dot to .doc. But, as ffiti said, formatting is often off. But there are other options besides Office for Mac. TextEdit that comes with your Mac can open Word files & there are the Office clones such as LibreOffice or NeoOffice that are free.
