Possible to use JavaScript to Import Data from XML file to pre-fill fields?

Hi,
I have a dynamic fill-in PDF that I want to "pre-fill" internally in my company before sending out to users who will change any pre-filled fields necessary and answer questions we did not already answer.
We do not have LiveCycle Reader Extensions, but we can use Acrobat to import data from an XML document to pre-fill the named fields.  Is it possibly to do this task using folder-level Javascript or some other method?  I can look into this, and post my findings, but I'd like to know if it's possible or if I need to use a different programming language.

Hi,
I am afraid that solution was for a specific client and I can't share it. If I get a chance I will mock up an example, but this wont be for a while. From memory it was just a straight importData method. This would normally fail silently in a non-certified form, but when the form is digitally signed/certified, it works without a hitch.
Good luck,
Niall

  • Import data from XML file into ICM script

    Hello,
    Is it possible to read data from an XML file into an ICM Admin script? If yes, using which node?
    Thanks,
    Justine.

    Hi,
    as far as i know not directy. Only Method i could think of right now is via CVP Application (Java Class, Custom Node) or IVR Script.
    To import data you only have the Database Node which does only allow sources form the Database Lookup Explorer ir passing data along to/from external scripts.

  • Import data from excel file

    Hi
    That's what i said in my prev. Post to clear cache... :)
    disable your cache from nqsconfig.ini
    In cache section of NQSConfig file,
    you find
    ENABLE     =     YES;
    set to NO
    OR
    if you are using data ware house as the source for OBIEE,
    you know that when ETL is done, so just create iBot to purge cache automatically at that particular intervals,
    So that report runs freshly at that time
    And what happened to your View Selector question?

  • Import data from excel file - best practice in the CQ?

    You can check a working example package [1] (use your Adobe ID to log in)
    After installing it, go to [2] for immediate example.
    Unfortunately it only supports the old OLE-2 Excel format (.xls and not .xlsx)

  • Extra column to be added while importing data from flat file to SQL Server

    I have 3 flat files with only one column in a table.
    The file names are bars, mounds & mini-bars.
    Table 'prd_type' has columns 'typeid' & 'typename' where typeid is auto-incremented and typename is bars, mounds & mini-bars.
    I Import data from 3 files to prd_details table. This table has columns 'pid', 'typeid' & 'pname' where pid is auto-incremented and pname is mapped to flat files and get info from them, now i wanted the typeid info to be received from prd_type table.
    Can someone please suggest me on this?

    You can get it as follows
    Assuming you've three separate data flow tasks for three files you can do this
    1. Add a new column to pipeline using derived column transformation and hardcode it to bars, mounds or mini-bars depending on the source
    2. Add a look task based on prd_type table. use query as
    SELECT typeid,typename
    FROM prd_type
    Use full cache option
    Add lookup based on derived column. new column -> prd_type.typename relationship. Select typeid as output column
    3. In the final OLEDB destination task map the typeid column to tables typeid column.
    In case you use single data flow task you need to include a logic based on filename or something to get the hardcoded type value as bars, mounds or mini-bars in the data pipeline
    Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

  • Ssis - import data from flat file to table (sql server 2012)

    i have create a ssis for importing data from flat file to table in sql server 2012.
    but i got the below error for some column in data flow task.
    error: cannot processed because than one code page (950 and 1252)
    anyone helps~

    Hi,
    The issue occurs because the source flat file uses ANSI/OEM – Tranditional Chinese Big5 encoding. When processing the source file, the flat file connection manager uses code page 950 for the columns. Because SQL Server uses code page to perform conversions
    between non-Unicode data and Unicode data, the data in the code page 950 based input columns cannot be loaded to code page 1252 based destination columns. To resolve the issue, you need to load the data into a SQL Server destination table that includes Unicode
    columns (nchar or nvarchar), and convert the input columns to Unicode columns via Data Conversion or the Advanced Editor for the Flat File Source at the same time.
    Another option that may not be that practical is to create a new database based on the Chinese_Taiwan_Stroke_BIN collation, and load the data to non-Unicode columns directly.

  • Importing data from Flat file

    Hi all Experts,
    I am a ABAPer and trying to learn BW by my own. I wanted to import data from flat file and generate some reports on that.

    1.to start with create infoareas, infoobjects(accoring to what u have in flat file).
    2.then create a cube which will include these infoobj's and activate it.
    3.create an application component and then create infosource,right click and assign ds to infosource and specify ur PC file source system(whatever system u've), 4.then u'll go to the infosource screen where u need to maintain the exact order of ur file in transfer structure tab, then maintain transfer rules, activate it.
    5.create upate rules for ur cube by mentioning this infosource name.
    6.create infopackages and schedule them. after data is loaded to cube, use tcode rrmx and logon to bex and find ur cube and then create queries on them.

  • Read data from xml files and  populate internal table

    Hi.
    How to read data from xml files into internal tables?
    Can u tell me the classes and methods to read xml data..
    Can u  explain it with a sample program...

    <pre>DATA itab_accontextdir TYPE TABLE OF ACCONTEXTDIR.
    DATA struct_accontextdir LIKE LINE OF itab_accontextdir.
    DATA l_o_error TYPE REF TO cx_root.
    DATA: filename type string ,
                 xmldata type xstring .
    DATA: mr      TYPE REF TO if_mr_api.
    mr = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
    mr->get( EXPORTING  i_url     = 'SAP/PUBLIC/BC/xml_files_accontext/xml_accontextdir.xml'
                  IMPORTING  e_content = xmldata ).
    WRITE xmldata.
    TRY.
    CALL TRANSFORMATION id
          SOURCE XML xmldata
          RESULT shiva = itab_accontextdir.
      CATCH cx_root INTO l_o_error.
    ENDTRY.
    LOOP AT itab_accontextdir INTO struct_accontextdir.
        WRITE: / struct_accontextdir-context_id,
               struct_accontextdir-context_name,
               struct_accontextdir-context_type.
        NEW-LINE.
        ENDLOOP.</pre>
    <br/>
    Description:   
    In the above code snippet I am storing the data in an xml file(you know xml is used to store and transport data ) called 'xml_accontextdir.xml' that is uploaded into the MIME repository at path 'SAP/PUBLIC/BC/xml_files_accontext/xml_accontextdir.xml'.
    The below API is used to read a file in MIME repo and convert it into a string that is stored in ' xmldata'. (This is just a raw data that is got by appending the each line of  xml file).
    mr = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
    mr->get( EXPORTING  i_url     = 'SAP/PUBLIC/BC/xml_files_accontext/xml_accontextdir.xml'
                  IMPORTING  e_content = xmldata ).
        Once the 'xmldata' string is available we use the tranformation to parse the xml string that we have got from the above API and convert it into the internal table.
    <pre>TRY.
    CALL TRANSFORMATION id
          SOURCE XML xmldata
          RESULT shiva = itab_accontextdir.
      CATCH cx_root INTO l_o_error.
    ENDTRY.</pre>
    Here the trasnsformation 'id ' is used to conververt the source xml 'xmldata' to resulting internal table itab_accontextdir, that have same structure as our xml file 'xml_accontextdir.xml'.  In the RESULT root of the xml file has to be specified. (In my the root is 'shiva'). 
    Things to be taken care:
    One of the major problem that occurs when reading the xml file is 'format not compatible with the internal table' that you are reading into internal table.  Iin order to get rid of this issue use one more tranformation to convert the data from the internal table into the xml file.    
    <pre>TRY.
          CALL TRANSFORMATION id
            SOURCE shiv = t_internal_tab
            RESULT XML xml.
        CATCH cx_root INTO l_o_error.
      ENDTRY.
      WRITE xml.
      NEW-LINE.</pre>
    <br/>
    This is the same transformation that we used above but the differnce is that the SOURCE and RESULT parameters are changed the source is now the internal table and result is *xml *string. Use xml browser that is available with the ABAP workbench to read the xml string displayed with proper indentation. In this way we get the format of xml file to be used that is compatable with the given internal table. 
    Thank you, Hope this will help you!!!

    RandomAccessFile? If you know where you want to insert it.Are you sure about this? If using this, the receiving file would have to have bytes inserted that exactly match the number of bytes replaced. I'm thinking that you'll likely have to stream through the second XML with a SAX parser and copy information (or insert new information) as you stream with an XML writer of some sort.

    If the files are small, you can load the target file in a DOM document, insert the data from the source file and persist the DOM.
    If the files are large, you probably want to use a StAX or SAX.
