Document Version picker – Modify the Asset Picker.

We have a requirement to provide a SharePoint document ‘version’ picker. The document library has flat structure with metadata used in views to group and filter documents. Another document library has folders. We wish to pick documents from both libraries
but must be able to select the version too.
This picker will be called from an infopath form which stores some sort of reference not the doc itself.
There are not OOB document pickers which allow you select the document version.
The Asset Picker (using AssetPortalBrowser.aspx) seems to most of what we want. A document library selector on a left pane, library views and filters on the right pane. I understand this can be called from custom coded dialog and used a document picker if
configured to select links.
I would like to customise the Asset Picker to :-
a) Display and select a document version. The edit menu option show versions but you cannot select it.
b) Remove unwanted options such as Site Pages, Site Assets, Form Template etc
and c) restrict the views allowed as we have some admin views which should not be selected?
I was looking for a way to extend and override the class SP.UI.AssetLibrary but this is not public. I really do not want to modify _layouts/15/AssetPortalBrowser.aspx directly as these change are not be global. Is there underlying class
structure which I can call achieve the same results?
What are the options to modify The Asset Picker?

Hi Richard,
based on OOB, seems asset picker not able to show this version of docs, that you mentioned before.
as i checked, the class for assetlibrary class not have the class to get this property, and this version information, is saved within the SPFile class.
the documents that is shown by asset picker will be only the latest version of the document.
i am not quite sure how to join this using OOB feature, most probably you may need to create your own custom coding for this.
to use asset picker, it is suggested to follow this articles:

Error in creating Document versions

Hi All,
I am working in SAP ERP 6.0 EHP 4.0 system.
I have problem in creating new document versions.
I create a document with functional location and specify the mpd cycle. Then when i try to create a new version by copying the contents created from already created document.I change the MPD cycles in the new version and save it.
once when i display the first document created the mpdcycle specified in version 001 is copied to the 000 version.
The document is inconsistent where versioning of document doesnot work properly.
The problem which i found was the document identification guid remains the same for all the document versions getting created.The last documet version value is stored in the all the previous document versions.
The same is working fine in SAP ERP6.0 EHP3.0 sytem.
Please someone help me in resolving the above issue.

Below is the solution for my issue
There is a change in the standard code.The reason for the above problem was because of a missing Enhancemnet point in a standard function module 'CV110_DOC_CREATE_WITH_TEMPLATE'.

Oracle B2B not picking up Document type and document version from JMS msg

Hi,
We have developed guideline and schema for a custom positional flat file using Oracle B2B Document Editor. We were able to creat and deploy the agreement. But when we drop a message on a Queue being listened by Oracle B2B. The document type and version values were empty. We got the following error,
Error Code B2B-50083
Error Description Machine Info: (xxxxx) Description: Document protocol identification error.
Error Level ERROR_LEVEL_COLLABORATION
Error Severity ERROR
Error Text Document protocol identification error.
This is our Java code for testing that drops the message, and I can see the JMS header with these values.
message.setText(messageText);
message.setStringProperty("FROM_PARTY", "CT-Sender");
//message.setStringProperty("FROM_PARTY", "RemoteTP");
message.setStringProperty("TO_PARTY", "MyCompany");
message.setStringProperty("DOCTYPE_NAMEe", "CT");
message.setStringProperty("DOCTYPE_REVISION", "CT-AES");
We were able to test a 850 document successful through different document and agreement ....
Thanks
John

We have uploaded the ecs and xsd files. Are they the parser files you are mentioning? The following is the information we have for the transaction. I am just surprised whty the Document Type and others are empty.

I downloaded the 09 version without deleting the 0, and now I am having some problems : when I open a document, it opens with 09, and then when I try to re-open it with 08 it is not possible !

I downloaded the 09 version without deleting the 08 (didn't know), and now I am having some problems : when I open a document, it opens with 09, and then when I try to re-open it with 08 it is not possible ! I have a message saying tha "the fichier index xml is absent" (my computer is in French. I want to work with pages 08 until I get familiar with the 09 version. What shall I do ? What does this happen?

Once you open the files in the new version you can't open them in the old version. Pick one version to use (have to be 9 now as you already have converted files)

Document not picked in f110 payment

Invoice doc: 5000000001
Due on: 12/30/2008
Baseline date: 11/10/2008
Payment terms: 50 days net due
Vendor master details:
Vendor: 241344
Payment method: E
Payment proposal Details:
Payment run on 12/29/2008 through F110 t-code
Parameters:
Identification:MTR1
Payment method: E
Vendor:1 to 99999999
Result : above invoice doc not picked
Second payment executed on same day 12/29/2008
Parameters:
MTR2
Payment method: C
Vendor: 1 to 99999999
Result: above invoice picked in proposal but not cleared giving error u201CPmnt methods for this run are not specified in master record or in itemu201D.
Again same executed on 30th but not picked but finally picked on 01/02/2009
My question is why document is not picked in MTR1 which has correct values.

Hi
Check the base line date for this IV - I dont think the document is overdue in MRT1 that is the reason it is not picked up (in frist payment run). It is overdue in the payment run (in January you run).
Check the invoice date for document getting picked up ( i hope it is with in the date), check the base line date for payment for payment proposal (I hope on 30th it is not overdue).
Thanks

Is there a way to modify the style sheet so that it transforms an XML document with empty tags as tag / ?

I have extracted some code from codeproject to
reindent an XML document. Does anyone know how I can modify the stylesheet to make it so that the transform of an XML file will result in empty tags showing up as <tag /> instead of <tag></tag>?
// http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/43309/How-to-create-a-simple-XML-file-using-MSXML-in-C
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr FormatDOMDocument(MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pDoc)
LPCSTR const static szStyleSheet =
R"!(<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>)!"
R"!(<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">)!"
R"!( <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>)!"
R"!( <xsl:template match="@* | node()">)!"
R"!( <xsl:copy>)!"
R"!( <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>)!"
R"!( </xsl:copy>)!"
R"!( </xsl:template>)!"
R"!(</xsl:stylesheet>)!";
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pXmlStyleSheet;
pXmlStyleSheet.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument60));
pXmlStyleSheet->loadXML(szStyleSheet);
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pXmlFormattedDoc;
pXmlFormattedDoc.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument60));
CComPtr<IDispatch> pDispatch;
HRESULT hr = pXmlFormattedDoc->QueryInterface(IID_IDispatch, (void**)&pDispatch);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
_variant_t vtOutObject;
vtOutObject.vt = VT_DISPATCH;
vtOutObject.pdispVal = pDispatch;
vtOutObject.pdispVal->AddRef();
hr = pDoc->transformNodeToObject(pXmlStyleSheet, vtOutObject);
//By default it is writing the encoding = UTF-16. Let us change the encoding to UTF-8
// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pXMLFirstChild = pXmlFormattedDoc->GetfirstChild();
// A map of the a attributes (vesrsion, encoding) values (1.0, UTF-8) pair
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNamedNodeMapPtr pXMLAttributeMap = pXMLFirstChild->Getattributes();
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pXMLEncodNode = pXMLAttributeMap->getNamedItem(_T("encoding"));
pXMLEncodNode->PutnodeValue(_T("UTF-8")); //encoding = UTF-8
return pXmlFormattedDoc;
Or, if there is some other method for reindenting a MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object where I can specify how I want empty tags to be stored, that would be great too. However, I don't want it to lose its status of an MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object.
I.e. I would like to still perform operations on the result as if it was still an MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object.
Thanks,

Is it possible to recover an original pdf document from a modified version??

I received a court document in pdf thats internal content was modified, is it in anyway possible to recover the original from the modified version?

It is possible they did a quick save to preserve the file identity, the metadata shows the program used was to modify the document was 'tx11 pdf version 11.0.111.501. Are either of you familiar with such a program?
I am on xp, when I right click properties there is a separate pdf tab. Indicating: The file was created jan 2012 and modified August 2013. The pdf producer is tx11 pdf 11.0.111.501.
I had a friend of a friend look at it and he said "the content was modified, not the file container itself, August 1st 2013, 5:13 a.m. according to its meta data the modification was made by tx11 pdf version 11.0.111.501". He gave me a printout of the metadata but I dont know the program used.
Whats interesting is the modification date is the same in pdf properties tab but the modification time is 9 am a 4 hour difference. 5 am is before office hours 9 am is shortly after arriving. The august date was a week after a court order.
So it is possible the file was taken home modified then replaced on the office computer. I am suspecting by a paralegal.

Emailing persistent link to the current document version.

I did not find a suitable answer by searching previous posts.
We are working on a document transmittal workflow. This will email to a user, links to documents stored in a SharePoint document library. A requirement is to use out of the box features.
If the document is an old version I use the link format
http://site/_vti_history/UIVersion/Document Library/doc.doc. This works well as it always points to that version of the document.
However the above format does not work when referencing the current version of the document, even if I know the document UIversion to plug into the above URL. The link has to be
http://site/Version/Document Library/doc.doc
The problem is when a link to the current version of the document is emailed and then the document is changed in SharePoint.
The email will no longer point to the version intended but rather the ‘new’ latest version. I need the link to open the correct document version.
What I need is a persistent link to any version of a document whether the current version or an old one and to generate that at the time the email is created.
However I cannot see a way to do this. Any help would be appreciated.
Our current work around is to clone the document to artificially create an old version which can then be referenced. However this is not desirable.
Thanks Richard

Hi Richard,
I'm afriad that it is impossible to modify the current document url(canonical path) to the last history version document url(revision path) in the workflow mail has been sent after the new current document(canonical path) generates.
The canonical path document will always points to the lastest current version document, the persistent link of revision path document will only be available after the newer current canonical path document generates, and the revision path in workflow
mail will not be available for the curent document item, this is how SharePoint version history works, you can read the following article.
As a workaround, you may clone the document as you have done, or you may send the all the current version document information and the current document attachment in workflow mail as a snapshot for that time of triggering the workflow.

SharePoint document library, showing one version earlier than the latest in the metadata and version history...

Hi,
We have a production site collection in which all of the document libraries seem to be showing one version earlier than
the latest. For example, if we check-in the file today, the version history shows all versions except the current. The same is true for the Date Modified and Modified by fields. This happens with site
owners account.
This is a very strange behavior and I can not find any information on the internet. Anyone with a similar issue?
Regards

Didn't you update the system time and date, on any Sharepoint Server, or SQL Server?
Make sure all your Farm Servers (Applicational, Front-Ends and SQL) have the same date and time defined.

I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my do

I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

"The Web application at http://server:port/ could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing

Here are the most common reasons this error can occur:
The code is executed on a different machine - The SharePoint object model (except the Client API) requires to be run on the SharePoint server itself. It is not possible to run the application on a server which is not within the same
SharePoint farm the code is trying to access.
Insufficient Rights on the site collection - The code is executed in context of an account which does not have read permission on the site collection
Incorrect Url being used - Verify that the site works correct in a browser and double check that the server is correct registered in the AAM settings
Incorrect bitness - The SharePoint object model needs to be executed with the same bitness as the operating system. That means you cannot use the SharePoint object model in a 32-bit application if the Operating System and SharePoint
are installed as 64-bit version. Ensure to compile the project using the correct bitness (64-bit on a 64-bit machine vs. 32-bit on a 32-bit machine)
Incorrect .NET framework version - Ensure that the project is configured to use .NET 3.5. .NET 4.0 cannot be used with the current versions of SharePoint
from Mr.Stefan's post, i have checked with my code : as per the first reason: (1)
i am running the code from my SP 2013 machine only. but the only difference is that, i am using a asp.net web appln and have added a SP references of 15 hive and trying to make a lists.asmx file.
also checked the reasons
2,3 ,4 ,5 all are fine from my end.
here just wanna know: abt the below approach : whether its Correct or NOT.
create a plain GetDocsWebService.asmx file from asp.net 3.5 framework and write the code for retrieving items from doc.lib using SPSite, spweb, splists, xmldocument and retrieve a datatable . [[[ i have added a web reference of sp 2013 microsoft.sharepoint
dll from isapi folder, in this GetDocsWebService.asmx project ]]
i deployed this web service on my SP server's new iis site, c:\inetpub\wwwroot\GETDOCSPUBLISH site
now, at present , am adding a normal asp.net 4.5 web appln and add the web reference of this custom web service and trying to consume.
at this point am getting mulitpl errors: like
1) platform not supported : am stuck with this error!!
2) sometimes, am getting document not valid...<html> <head> document not valid........</html>
for the above 2 errorrs, i still could not able to find a solution!!
is it because, lists.asmx is not supported in sp 2013? we need to depend on rest-api/ecma/csom ??
so my question is , what should be the correct ad most recommended approach for reading doc lib/ splist records/items from a remote macihne.

It's happened twice in the last month- I suddenly can't open my Pages documents unless I get the new version (for $20!) What is going on??!!

Some documents, but not others, that I've created/edited/printed and worked with JUST RECENTLY suddenly won't open UNLESS I get the new version of Pages (for $20!!) I just edited some of these a couple of days ago! I edited one, printed it, etc. Now I need to look at it again and it WON'T open! I "need the new version of Pages??! What if I don't want to suddenly shell out $20 to work with documents I made on the version I already have? And why do SOME documents now look different (in a new style) while others look like they always have, and function normally?

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version

I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version & also the one I have created/saved???

Jules,
You may delete Numbers 08 if you wish, but some folks like keeping it around. Close all your Numbers docs and Quit the Numbers app, and the other Numbers app if necessary.Then click the Numbers icon on your doc. Then select Numbers > About Numbers, and in the window that pops up, see which version it is. If the Dock icon started Numbers 08, you can cure that by dragging that icon off the Dock and letting it go in a puff of virtual smoke.
Now, to put the Numbers 09 icon on the Dock, double-click one of those known Numbers 09 documents so that Numbers 09 starts up. Verify by checkig Numbers > about Numbers.
Now click and hold the Numbers Dock icon and select the Option for Keep in Dock.
