Invalid path to MS-Word templates folder

Hi all!!!
I set in System Initialisation -> General Settings -> Path -> Microsoft Word Templates Folder: "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\SAP Business One\WordDocs\".
When i click on the MS_WORD icon on a Sales Order i get the message "Invalid path to MS-Word templates folder".
Why???

Hi Gianluca,
Please try to specify Microsoft Word Templates Folder with the Language folder at the end.
( e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\SAP Business One\WordDocs\English\ )
Please also check whether MS Office application is installed on the client and if these files are in the selected folder:
- CustAccounts.doc                                                                   
- Docmnhl1.doc                                                                       
- Header.txt                                                                         
- Lines1.txt                                                                         
- Lines2.txt                                                                         
- Lines3.txt                                                                         
- mnhlDot1.dot                                                                       
- ToDoLetters.doc                                
hope it helps,

  • Invalid payh to WORD templates folder

    Hi experts.
    after upgrade to release from 2005 to 2007 I have a problem with exporting to word.
    the error message is: invalid payh to WORD templates folder [message 20015-6].
    first the upgrade everything worked. I have sap and folder authorization.
    also the export to PDF by clicking the appropriate button does not work. I solved pdf export using file/export/layout to/pdf, but not for word doc.
    I have Sap Business One SP:01 PL:07
    can you help me?
    thanks

    Ciao Pasquale,
    for create a word doc or a pdf doc from a marketing document it is necessary only to click on related word icon or pdf icon; for sure you need to set the correct patch into General Setting tab Path, like " C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\WordDocs\Italy\ " for the word document and the same for excel files like "C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\ExclDocs\ ".
    Please verify if into the folder you have this file's:
    CustAccounts.doc
    Docmnhl1.doc
    mnhlDot1.dot
    ToDoLetters.doc
    I've tested into 2007 A SP01 PL08 and I'm not able to reproduce the issue, so I think there is something wrong into the client and I suggest to you to open a customer message to Global Support Center explain in detail what is happen with a little word document with each single step.
    Or you can try to upgrade to the last patch 08 and re-try if the issue is patch depending !

  • Invalid path for Microsoft Word

    I had set a path for Microsoft Word as below c:
    serverip\B1_SHR\WordDocs\English, but I still get the "invalid path error".
    Please advice

    Hi,
    I have set the path like this following and nothing happened:
    C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\WordDocs\English\
    but when I try to use the path like you are using:
    C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\B1_SHR\WordDocs\
    I've got the same error message with you.
    So, one of the solution is to avoid using the folder B1_SHR. The path should be used different since every users will not probably export their file in one folder.
    Although you find that there is excldocs folder in the B1_SHR and you success to export to excel , it won't be available there but it will available in this path:
    C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\ExclDocs\

    Hi nki,
    To include the ocx and dll files you will need to build an executable for your VI and then create an installer for the additional files. I have linked 2 documents that will explain each of these steps. If you have any questions with this let me know.

  • Invalid path to word templates

    Hello,
    I am trying to export delivery note to word, but no way. It appears the following message:
    "Invalid path to word templates"
    I have checked under administration that the path set there is correct and the macros are with low security level.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    If you have checked the administration --> general settings --> path, you could also check if the folder still exists and allowable to use by user. btw, what version of SBO you are using ?
    Rgds,

  • I'm using Word for Mac. Though there are various instructions on the Internet for modifying the templates, none make sense to me. They instruct to do something I can't follow. I change a template but can't save it to the template folder.

    What the ****.
    OK, I try to change a template using Word for Mac version 14.3.4 2011 edition.
    I make a change to the template but am unable to save the darned thing to the template folder; it asks for a file name like it's a new document. I want to change the blasted template but if I can't save it as a modified template, I've accomplished nothing.
    Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks

  • Invalid path in folder - catalog problem

    In Lightroom 4.4 I get the indication in the folder pane of invalid paths. I have accidently deleted some directories outside of Lightroom in an effort to reorganize the structure. Lightroom freezes as soon as I move in the folder pane. I have to use ctr-alt-del to exit Lightroom. Deleting the preferences file does not help because when I open the old catalog the same problem occurs.
    I tried looking for the back-up catalog file, but that does not exist. The setting was to backup every time leaving Lightroom, but when the problems started, I renewed the preferences to do the backup once a day. Something did not work out, as it is no longer there. May be it replaces a backup file? I should have checked that.
    How can I solve the folder problem???
    When I create a new catalog, I assume I will have lost all the corrections and work I did on my files.
    Operating system windows 7 - 64 bits - 16 GB RAM Lightroom 4.4 No other applications open.
    Thank you.
    Jan Minekus

    Waiting did not solve the problem, but renaming the topfolder and
    restarting Lightroom. Creating a new topfolder and moving an old
    subfolder did work!
    To be sure I did copy the old folder.
    After restarting Lightroom, I had to import the newly copied subfolder.
    Everything was allright, except the history was gone, but the metadata,
    captions and keywords are still there.
    I recreated the first problem folder and could now delete the images
    with the wrong path. After that I could remove the folder by
    rightclickting.
    Now the other problemsubfolders could also be removed.
    Problem resolved. I am stil importing subfolders. Thank you very much!

  • 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.

    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.

  • Hiding Workgroup Template folder in Office 2013

    Hi,
    It was suggested that this may be an appropriate forum for asking the following question
    I have the following setup... In Group Policy (Computer Configuration) I copy the corporate Templates to the WorkGroup Templates folder on every PC (under Default\appData).  We also have a personal templates folder (under %USERNAME%\appData). 
    The workgroup templates are available in both the workgroup and users personal templates folder.
    When a user creates a new file in WORD or Excel they are presented with 2 templates folders.  Is there anyway of hiding the Workgroup Templates folder and just showing the user their personal templates folder? (I want to keep the Workgroups templates
    folder, I just do not want to display it in WORD)
    Or should I just try to rename the templates folders so they can be distinguished from each other
    Thanks

    Hi,
    As per the description, I understand that you've copied your corporate templates into the WorGroup Templates folder, and now you would like to hide this folder to users but keep the templates/folder. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
    I have tested this on my own machine, to hide this folder to users, you'll need to clean the location for
    Workgroup template in FILE>Options>Advanced>File Locations... button under
    General section.
    We are not able to clean this directly in Word, but we can do this by modifying the registry key or using GPO:
    1) Clean the value of this registry key directly for each user:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\General\SharedTemplates
    2) Group policy for this is: User Configuration\Microsoft Office 2013\Shared paths\workgroup templates path
    Hope it helps.

  • 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.

  • Help for -Generate Report using Word template having company Logo

    HI GUys,
    I am trying to generate a report in PDF using the word template having some company logo as footer to that .
    When user click on print ,the graph should be added to the template and its should output the report in pdf.
    I am able to achive this when I 'm  not using the template,but when I use the template (sample code shown below),its throws the error attached in screenshot.
    pls suggest the possible way to achieve this

    Why are you deleting the file after creating the report? Are you sure that the image exists at the path specified when running?
    Also, in your top screenshot because of data flow there's a high possibility that you actually delete the file before it gets used because there is no connection between the end of writing the report and deleting the picture.
    I also suspect there's a chance there might be a permissions issue - you are trying to get the file from another user's desktop which isn't normally allowed - do the file/folder permissions give you access to that file path? I would try putting the picture on your own desktop just to rule that out.

    Hi,
    Interop is not supported on a Server or with in a services.
    But if you want to this, you have to set up the Environment. I follow this Guideline with my Word and I'm able to start Word on a Server.
    1) Goto Control panel -> Administrative Tools -> Component Services
    2) Expand Tree by clicking on Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer -> DCOM Config
    3) Search CLSId 00020906-0000-0000-C000-000000000046 (which is for Word 97-2003 application)
    4) By selecting 00020906-0000-0000-C000-000000000046 this CLSId now right click on Properties
    5) In the Propeties area, click on Security TAB
    6) Select Customize option from all (Launch and Activations Permissions, Access Pemissions, Configuration Permissions)
    7) Take the User of the Services and Allow all permissions for this user
    8) Go to Identity TAB in the same properties area, select option as a This user and then add username (the user must be administrator of this machine) and password. Click on Apply, Ok
     Locale Profile: True
    9) Refresh Component Services and check your application is working fine or not.
    10) set Folder, if not present:
       C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\Desktop

  • 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
