Linking doc from Sharepoint into RH project?

Hello all:
I am using RH 10 and a Sharepoint installation that is part of Office 365.
My employer has a lot of little doc files in Sharepoint that contain useful information. I would like to link them from their Sharepoint location into a RoboHelp project that lives on my C drive.
Can this be done? I have tried but cannot work out how to select the Sharepoint document from RoboHelp.
Regards,
Juliette Curtis

Hi Juliette. Just so we are clear, are you asking whether you can link to the .DOC files in SharePoint or the other way around?
If you are linking from your project to SharePoint, this is possible as each .DOC file has a URL. Your issue though is whether your help file users have access to the SharePoint Repository. Provided they do, you are on a roll.
If however you are asking whether you can link from the .DOC files in SharePoint to your RoboHelp project, there are other considerations. I assume you are referring to the RH project output as linking to the RH source files would be pretty useless. If so, in theory I think you could link to the output but you'd need to know your PC's name, but your PC would need to be switched on in order for your users to access it. Either way it is probably not best to do this. You'd be better to place your output in another shared location (e.g. SharePoint) and link to that location.
What type of output are you generating? If we know this we can help further.

  • Import from sharepoint into ms sql

    When am importing data from SharePoint into SQL Server, am getting only 10 records where as it is having approx 10000 records. I'm using BIDS 2008. I'm not able to figure it out the issue. Can some one help me on this?

    Hi kdinuk,
    According to your description, you are missing some records while importing data from SharePoint into SQL Server.
    Based on my research, the issue always occurs when Error Output (under Connection Manager and Columns) within Source or Error Output (under Connection Manager and Mappings) with Destination Component is set to Ignore Failure or Redirect Row. Then the component
    will succeed, but only the successful rows will be inserted. So please check the Error Output on all your components in your Data Flow Task.
    Besides, for more details about how to import data from SharePoint into SQL Server, please refer to the following blog:

  • I don't understand how to get audio from itunes into my project

    i am new to elements but have some basic understanding, but I can't get any audio into my project from itunes, just keep getting an error.

    BeeW
    Thanks for the follow up.
    On your computer hard drive, are you seeing .m4p or .m4a for this file?
    Please check out the following online article on iTune music conversion to .wav (especially when DMR is involved).
    http://www.aimersoft.com/itunes-drm/itunes-to-wav.html
    But, going with your latest
    the error is @the importer reported a generic error'
    when i select the file to import it shows .MTS, in the error message it shows .m4a
    all a bit confusing.
    The first line of the above is consisted with having to convert the iTunes music to another format, preferred .wav (DMR or other reasons)
    But there is something wrong with that second sentence. I have never seen iTunes music with an .mts file extension. Typically you see that with a video file with AVCHD compression (1080 variety). So, please take another look at the properties of the file that you are trying to import...video or audio? On the other hand, m4a is a MPEG 4 audio file.
    Could you do a screenshot of the error message where you are seeing ".m4a" in it?
    We will be watching for your follow up. Do not give up. We will figure this out.
    Thanks.

  • Is it possible to link text from Pages into an InDesign document [as you can with Google docs]?

    In InDesign, you can get a plug-in [word flow] which allows you to link the text in a Google Docs document into an InDesign document, so that you can edit the text in Google Docs [on your computer/tablet etc] and it will update in the InDesign document. Additionally, if you edit the text in teh InDesign docuemnt, the Google Docs file is also updated.
    Is there a plug-in for Pages? Or a way to do this [without ditching Pages and starting to use Google Docs]?
    Thanks

    There are no plugins for Pages for iOS. Period.

  • Response.TransmitFile is not opening the links directly from SharePoint Library c#

    Hi,
     I want to open a pdf file from a sharepoint library. I am using Response.TransmitFile to do that. But it throws me the error "'url' is not a valid virtual path". Is there anyway otherway to do this.
                Response.Clear();
                Response.ClearHeaders();            
                Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
                Response.TransmitFile("URL to the library" + fileName);
                Response.Flush();
                Response.End();

    try using this method. In a standard .NET application what your doing may work but SharePoint works different as all the files are stored in the database.
    private void OpenDocument(SPListItem listItem)
    SPFile file = listItem.File;
    using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(file.OpenBinary()))
    Response.Clear();
    // Clear the content of the response
    Response.ClearContent();
    Response.ClearHeaders();
    // Buffer response so that page is sent after processing is complete.
    Response.BufferOutput = true;
    // Add the file name and attachment, which will force the open/cance/save dialog to show, to the header
    Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + file.Name);
    // Add the file size into the response header
    Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", file.Length.ToString());
    // Set the ContentType - octet stream helps handle all content types generically
    Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
    ms.WriteTo(Response.OutputStream);
    Response.Flush();
    Response.Close();

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. I didn't tested this, but when I do I will let you know the feedback.
    For me "Response.Redirect" worked for now as a I am saving the document into library and then opening it.

  • Can I import a recording from SHDB into a project in LSMW?

    Hi,
    I'm working with LSMW, and i would like to know if it's possible to import o reuse a recording that already exists in transaction SHDB?
    I tried but it seems that i should create a new recording again in the lsmw althought there exits one that was created by the shdb.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Albio.-

    Hi,
      No, it is not possible to import the recording you have done using SHDB transaction to LSMW as LSMW has its own recording facility, and we need to make use of the one available in LSMW.

  • Emailing multiple links and attachments from SharePoint 2010

    The issue I have is that if you want to send an email to someone internally with a link to a doc 
    from sharepoint you can find the doc in sharepoint 2010, tick the box then click 'email a link' BUT you can't tick two boxes so can't email two links at the same time. Related to this 
    also ( again unlike the old sharepoint 2003) there is no quick easy way to email multiple doc ( let alone two) as an attachment rather than a link when you want to send it externally.
    I know you can open up different windows, drag across etc, but with the old system I could be in the middle of an email, click add attachment and with a couple more
    click doc would be attached - as easy as adding something form my docs.
    Is there any way we can do this with SharePoint 2010?

    Hi Unaier,
    Thanks for your post.
    1.      
    The “E-mail a link” ribbon button will be disabled if you select more than one files. You have to right click on the file, and find
    the url of the file. Then email the link in your Outlook.
    2.      
    You cannot change the properties for many files at a time. Because the properties may be different with each other. If they have the same properties, you can
    put them in a folder or a “Document Set”, so that you can edit the properties of the folder or “Document Set” directly.

  • Drag/Drop "Numbered Stills" from Explorer into Project?

    I only get individual stills when I drag a folder from Explorer into a project.  Is there a way to tell Premiere to import as numbered stills (ie a sequence) when using drag/drop?
    Thanks.

    Yes, there is an Adobe way that is MUCH better, but it is not exactly a Premiere Pro way
    1) Using Adobe Bridge, put all of your stills in the order that you want them to show in Premiere
    2) Select all photos and do a right-click "batch rename" (set to make a copy of all photos with 001 002 003 numbers in front of each file name in an empty sub-directory)
    3) Import the whole "folder" (that you just "batch rename" copied the photos into) using the "import folder" option
    Hope this works for your "workflow" as well as it does for mine.
    Regards,
    Jim

    I recently had some 8mm film transferred to DVD. I am trying to edit the film clips using Premier Elements 4.0. so I can reburn the films on a single BluRay disc. Some of the film clips copy into the project but others don't. I tried copying the VOB filed onto my hard drive and then changing the file extensions on the VOB files to MPEG but this was no help. Some of the VOB files contain numerous film clips but my software does not appear to be able to recognize them as such. I need to know if replacing my old Premier Elements with the new Version 13 would solve this problem or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    What do you have now.....
    What computer operating system do you have?
    We can go into the finer points of source and your intentions, but for now it would appear that you are using SD 4:3 source media to get to a HD 16:9 result. Lots to discuss in this regard.
    What was given to you on the DVD disc? DVD-VIDEO 4:3 or something else?
    If DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, you should expect to find on the disc a folder named VIDEO_TS. That is your target for your video files.
    If you were given a DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, then all you want from it are the video files, specifically
    VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on through that series until possibly getting to
    VTS_02_1.VOB, and so on. How many files you have beyond the VTS_01_1.VOB file will depend on the size of the DVD-VIDEO.
    Does the above scenario apply to you?
    The alternative might be someone giving a DVD disc (data disc) which contains just the VTS files mentioned which were copied from
    the VIDEO_TS Folder. So, you do not get the whole VIDEO_TS Folder, just the essential video files. Does this scenario apply to you.
    I see no need to replace your Premiere Elements 4 with a later version unless you have a huge project and need a later version that will be a 64 bit application running specifically on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer.
    Consider...Premiere Elements 4 and if you have DVD-VIDEO on DVD....
    1. Place the DVD disc in the burner tray
    2. Open Premiere Elements 4 and set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard (assuming you are working in a NTSC setup)
    3. Go to
    Get Media
    "DVD, Digital Camera, Mobile Phone, Hard Drive Camcorder, Card Reader"
    "Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" and its Advanced dialog.
    Set the Source in the latter dialog for the drive which has your DVD disc inserted in its tray
    You should see your VTS_01_1.VOB thumbnail in the "Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" Advanced dialog.
    With this VOB selected, click on Get Media to get the file from there into the project.
    Should work fine.
    Complications may be involved if the people who processed your footage gave you something other what is described above.
    Please review and consider, and then we can plan our project strategy accordingly.
    Thank you.

  • Can't drag docs from Stacks onto desktop

    Ever since I have had my Mac, which I bought only in March, I've been totally baffled by the Stacks facility.
    I put documents straight from the desktop onto a folder onto hard disc - it appears to have done this. I then check it a few days later - no document in folder and I then have to panickily check the Stacks to see if a copy is in there.
    It usually is, so I then have to start again -drag doc onto desktop and then put it into folder and hope the darned thing stays in the folder this time.
    Has anyone any idea why this glitch happens?
    I have rung Apple and they weren't that helpful.
    Any input very gratefully received.
    Roz

    Actually I've just figured that I have worded the orignal problem incorrectly - obviously having a very dumb day....
    The problem is that when I put docs from desktop into folders onto hard disc, it doesn't work and they then end up in Stacks, which is a bit different. I'd prefer Stacks not to be existing, and then I'd know if the docs had actually "stuck" in the folder, rather than appearing to be on hard disc only to find out a few days later they aren't, and are just floating in the Stack....
    Is it possible to switch Stacks off entirely, so this glitch won't occur?

  • Getting trailer music into a project

    I had a trailer I created and converted it into a project. All was great and I got the music. I made my own project where I wanted to add the Romantic music from the romance trailer -- but it's no where to be find. I filter search any everything. Am I missing something?

    Greekamire wrote:
    ... but it's no where to be find. I filter search any everything. Am I missing something?
    The 'Trailers' are highly complex Quartz-compositings within the iMovie app, including all graphics and audio.
    if you dare to dig inside:
    • in Finder ctrl-click on 'iMovie'
    • select 'show package content'
    • goto Content
    • goto Ressources
    • the trailer's audio-files follow the naming scheme 'Soundtrack- ...' + theme-name
    you can drag it from there into your Project ...-
    best practice would be to copy the track(s) to another location, perhaps 'Music' and work from there with the copies.

  • Paste Link 'Outline Level' from Excel into Project get error

    I am trying to generate a MS Project schedule based on linked data in an Excel spreadsheet. I cannot get the summary project tasks to appear with their sub-tasks. When I try to paste link the Outline Level into Project, I get and error that states
    "The paste link operation failed. You cannot paste into a field that project calculates automatically." However, I can manually type the Outline Level into the project and it changes the task-subtask relationships as it should. How can I get this
    to work?

    This error just means that you can’t paste a link just anywhere you like, just as you can’t type data into just any cell. change the excel data source schedule without calculate. see the link:

  • Importing Word docs from a RH for Word project

    I have a HUGE RH for Word project that I'm trying to convert
    to RHTML (RH Office X5). We generate CHM with this project, and
    we've got map ids for all topics. I've been to Peter Grainge's site
    to get some ideas, but I don't think they're going to work. There
    are so many Word files and topics (537 and 2,974, respectively)
    that the more I think about it, the more I think that a conversion
    to RH HTML might not be worth it.
    When I tried to import all of the Word documents and also
    convert the TOC (converting the Index isn't an option since it
    never worked with our large number of Word docs) and use the
    HTMLHelp.css (using the Import wizard), RH HTML crashed twice after
    40 minutes.
    So, I created a new RH HTML project and tried to import just
    one Word doc from the RH for Word project, and selected the same
    wizard options. As I expected, the Word doc imported, but even
    though I told RH to split the topics on Heading 2, it also copied
    in the characters (#S+@) that preceded every topic heading and
    incorporated them into the Topic Title. AND, RH HTML did not
    "convert" the TOC - it was blank.
    In another post I saw a reference to this patch -
    http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb07-10.html.
    I'm not sure it's related, although when I examined my second
    failed import attempt, the imported topics were visible in the
    project folder only by using Windows Explorer - RoboHelp HTML did
    not display them from within RoboHelp.
    Does anyone know if this is the patch that will fix this
    issue as well?
    By the way, based on the number of questions I've seen posted
    about RH for Word 7 with zero replies, I'm thinking I'm going to
    run into issues as well, even if we leave it in RH for Word when we
    upgrade to version 7. It seems that its size is an issue for RH
    HTML.
    Thanks,
    Jim
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Hi Jim,
    just as an encouragement: we sucessfully converted a HUGE RH
    for Word project (4,300 topics) to RH HTML a while ago, including
    TOC, index and everything. I must admit though that we had all
    those topics in only 25 word documents. Maybe you can reduce the
    number of documents by moving the topics? There will always be
    problems you run into and afterward, we had to go through every
    single topic and check the formatting, but I guess you'd always
    have to do this. But I think it's worth it, working in HTML is so
    much more convenient.
    Good luck!
    Kathrin
