How to open a Word Document from Developer Forms

Hi Buddies,
Can anybody help me out in this regard.
My requirement is like this.
In my developer Forms Screen i have one button named resume.
if i click that button then that particular persons resume has to be opened which is MsWord file(.DOC)located in server(Which is the database server).
So we have to launch the word with the required document using the Forms built-ins. The document path will be stored in my database.
Quick response will be appreciated.
Thanks in Anticipation

    This is a confused and confusing issue. There are no quick fixes. Bear in mind the following points:
    Word is a client program. It can only open documents that can be seen from a client PC. If you cannot see your database server's directories from a client PC (and I would hope you can't) you cannot open that document.
    what you are left with is creating a copy of that document, transporting it to the client realm, and then overwriting it back on the server after your user has finished with it (if they're editing).
    there are many different ways of doing this, but they will probably involve writing an API in VisualBasic or Java. Alternatively you might look at Oracle's IFS.
    This is not the right forum for a detailed solution - try the Developer forum (or IFS if that floats your boat).
    Good luck, APC

  • Upload / Open a Word Document from BDS with WebDynpro

    Hello,
    we use the BDS (Business Document Server) to storage our word files. Now we use WebDynpro with the UI OfficeControl.
    Could any one tell me, how to open/upload my documents from BDS with the OfficeControl.
    The UI FileUpload does not work, because it is not allowed to use specify URLs. link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/b3/be7941601b1d09e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
    For example that is the URL from the BDS: "SAPR3://SAPR3CMS/get/100/BDS_5FDB2_5FR/7B3AAF5B22AAD21197ED0060B0672A3C/Forminterface.doc"
    I use the class "CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET" with the method "get_with_url". result is above.
    Each example with the OfficeControl from SAP (Package SIOS) use the Mime Repository:
    mime_repository = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
      CALL METHOD mime_repository->get
        EXPORTING
          i_url     = url
        IMPORTING
          e_content = content.
      wd_context->set_attribute( name = 'DATAS' value = content ).
    Have any one an idea, how BDS and WebDynpro works together

    What about getting the binary of the word document from BDS and download this?
    Yes, it exist a method calls "get_with_table". This return the binary path from my url above.
    Here is my source code:
    public attributes
    DATA oi_document TYPE REF TO if_ios_wordprocessing.
    DATA oi_factory TYPE REF TO if_ios_factory.
    METHOD wddomodifyview .
    DATA ol_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
    DATA ol_office TYPE REF TO cl_wd_office_control.
    DATA vl_document TYPE xstring.
    short from
      vl_document = myBDS->get_with_table( ).
    Settings for UI OFFICE_CONTROL
      ol_node = wd_context->get_child_node( 'OFFICE' ).
      ol_node->set_attribute( name = 'DATASET' value = vl_document ).
    get the office control
      wd_this->oi_office ?= view->get_element( 'OFFICE_CONTROL' ).
    get the IOS Factory
          wd_this->oi_factory ?= ol_office->_method_handler.
    get proxy document
          wd_this->oi_factory->get_wordprocessing_proxy(
          IMPORTING proxy = wd_this->oi_document  ).
    CALL METHOD wd_this->oi_document->if_ios_document~opendocument( ).
    ENDMETHOD.
    When I compile everything is ok. But when I run my application, it nothing happen. No word file is opening or no error message. I create a ALC trace (SAPNOTE 949770).
    Each time when I try to open my word file comes a popup-window from the alc-trace:
    ERRO|20081024143529|WD86_1300|CIOS_GeneralDocumentContainer_Acf::| STG_E_READFAULT  : readaccess|HRESULT=-2147287010(     A disk error occurred during a read operation)
    ERRO|20081024143529|WD86_1300|CIOS_GeneralDocumentContainer_Acf::|Office version is lower than 12, only native office format supported|HRESULT=-2147467259(Unspecified error
    ERRO|20081024143529|WD86_1300|CIOS_GeneralDocumentContainer_Acf::|loadOffice2007xml|HRESULT=-2147467259(Unspecified error )
    But I have access to the BDS and to the document.
    Can any one help me.....

    How top Open a Excel Document  from share point document library using jquery

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to open excel file via JQuery.
    To open excel file, we can use the following code.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function openExcel(strFilePath) {
    var yourSite = "http://www.yoursite.com";
    openExcelDocPath(yourSite + strFilePath, false);
    function openExcelDocPath(strLocation, boolReadOnly) {
    var objExcel;
    objExcel = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");
    objExcel.Visible = true;
    objExcel.Workbooks.Open(strLocation, false, boolReadOnly);

    Hi Manu,
    Follow these steps:
    1. Create CONTEXT with 2 attributes - UPLOAD & SHOW of type XSTRING.
    2. Add a "UPLOAD" element on the layout of screen & map it with UPLOAD attribute of context.
    3. Then Add a "OFFICE CONTROL" on the same screen & map it with the SHOW attribute of context..
    4. Add a BUTTON for Show Document/Open Document.
    5. Add 2 attrubutes in ATTRIBUTES tab of the dynpro application:
            i) DOCUMENT type IF_IOS_DOCUMENT
           ii) FACTORY    type IF_IOS_FACTORY
    6. On method of that button (SHOW)...enter the following code:
    DATA : refexp TYPE REF TO cx_ios_exception.
    IF wd_this->document IS INITIAL.
        wd_this->factory->get_document_proxy( IMPORTING proxy = wd_this->document  ).
        ASSERT ID sios_demo CONDITION wd_this->document IS BOUND.
      ENDIF.
      wd_this->document->opendocument( ).
    read context node
    DATA:
        node_file_upload                    TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
        elem_file_upload                    TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
        stru_file_upload                    TYPE if_second=>element_file_upload .
    navigate from <CONTEXT> to <FILE_UPLOAD> via lead selection
      node_file_upload = wd_context->get_child_node( name = if_second=>wdctx_file_upload ).
    get element via lead selection
      elem_file_upload = node_file_upload->get_element(  ).
    get all declared attributes
      elem_file_upload->get_static_attributes(
        IMPORTING
          static_attributes = stru_file_upload ).
      stru_file_upload-show = stru_file_upload-upload.
    set all declared attributes
      elem_file_upload->set_static_attributes(
        EXPORTING
          static_attributes = stru_file_upload ).
    7. Now add the following code to the WDDOMODIFYVIEW method (default method)
      DATA:
          office TYPE REF TO cl_wd_view_element.
    get the office control
      office ?= view->get_element( 'OFFICE' ).
      ASSERT ID sios_demo CONDITION  office IS BOUND.
    get the IOS interface
      wd_this->factory ?= office->_method_handler.
      ASSERT ID sios_demo CONDITION wd_this->factory IS BOUND.
    8. Run the application & enter a text file of word format in the File Upload.
    9. Press show button & it will display the code of that word file.
    Plz ask any queries if you face any problem doing the above code.
    & dont forget to mark Points.

  • How to open the pdf document from KM  through Link to URL UI element

    Hi All,
    I have Link to URL UI element  in webdynpro java layout - on click of the link we need to open the pdf document from KM respository.
    KM Document location : irj/go/km/docs/documents/RHPortal//USA/A/Test/Employee_details.pdf.
    Once this is transported to Test and Production portals , we need to retrieve the KM document from the respective portal location through the Link to URL UI element .
    Thanks,
    Portaluser100

    Hi,
    If you set the link to your document in a Context attribute by using a relative path this should work just fine.
    Example:
    wdContext.currentContextElement().setUrl("/irj/go/km/docs/documents/RHPortal//USA/A/Test/Employee_details.pdf");
    Bind that attribute to the reference property of the LinkToURL element.
    Cheers,

  • How to open a JSP page from a form ??? plz help

    hi ..
    i want to know how to open a jsp page from a oracle apps form using a button .
    the requirement is that whenever we click on the button created on the form, it opens a jsp page.
    plz help me ..its urgent !! :-(

    In portlet project, to navigate between pages, you should not use the URL property to link to a page. Instead, portlets use navigation via action handling. You use the Page Navigation editor to set up links to pages; that is, the navigation editor sets the action property.
    Here is an example to hyperlink ans button to open a new page:
    # From within the IDE, create a new portlet project. This action creates the project and one page, PortletPage1.jsp.
    # Create a second portlet page, called PortletPage2.jsp, for the project.
    # Drop a Hyperlink component onto the first portlet page, PortletPage1. (You can drop the Hyperlink on the page in the Design window or on the PortletPage1 node in the Outline window.) Change the Hyperlink's text property to Next Page.
    # Drop a Button component (found in the Basic section of the Palette) onto the second portlet page, PortletPage2.
    # Open the Page Navigation Editor. It displays the two pages (PortletPage1.jsp and PortletPage2.jsp) of the application.
    # Click the PortletPage1.jsp icon in the Navigation window to expand it, and then drag a connector from hyperlink1 to PortletPage2.jsp. Change the name of the connector from case1 to Page2.
    # Click the PortletPage2.jsp icon in the Navigation window to expand it, and then drag a connector from button1 to PortletPage1.jsp. Change the name of the connector from case1 to Page1.
    # Run and deploy the portlet. The browser displays PortletPage1 and you should see the Next Page hyperlink. When you click the Next Page hyperlink, the Apache Pluto Portal server displays PortletPage2. Click the Page2 button to return to PortletPage1.

  • How do I open a word document from a url?

    We have a document server and I need to open a MSWord document that is a template for LabView to populate (using bookmarks and Connectivity Toolkit).
    I have looked at the URL builder and I can't get that to work.  The Get Document does open the document but it doesn't seam to give the correct path to the Word Get Report so it doesn't give a good link.
    I can open it in the default browser which links to Word but again there isn't any link to feed to Word Get Report.
    Am I even close?
    Thank you,
