Tables & Data Merge
Does anyone know if the following listing can be done using data merge within tables or do I need a third party plugin?

<br />I've done both tables and data merge before but never in this scope.
It sounds like you have binding issues with your table. Can you send the form and instructions on how to recreate the problem to [email protected] and I will have a look when I get a chance.

Table with XSD binding merge tables data
Hi All,
Case 1 : If i bind the table to XSD,and create a few table. After save the form and re-open the pdf, all the table data are merged.
Case 2 : If i remove the table binding and create tables., after save the form and re-open the pdf, then the tables are not merged.
but, i need to have the table binding as later i will used that to capture data from the pdf.
If anyone have any suggestion , please advice.
The Dinamic PDF Form
Data entry into the 2 table
After Save and Re-Open the form ( The table data are merged )Hi,
I could not use both solution because I've two list (two data model) from different source, when the jsf page is generated it generated the correct number of column and output text but when I try to retrieve the component output text for example the 1 row and the second output text I got a null pointer exception because the column only have 1 child and not the full elements that we can see at html rendering.
There is no solution for getting the full list of components before the page is generated ? because findComponent recursivly called doesn't found what I want. -
InDesign CS5 crashes when documents that have tables are sent to data merge.
I have several documents that I have been using for the past 6 months that have tables on some of the pages and when I go to data merge them, CS5 crashes. When I remove the tables, they merge just fine. Some of these documents have to have the tables, so not havaing tables is a problem. I have even tried redoing the tables in Excel, Word & InDesign, but that doesn't seem to work. Is there a setting or something that I am missing?

Data Merge FYI - can't name a field "table"
I spent an hour today trying to figure out why my wedding place card data merge wouldn't work. I wasn't even getting an error message so it was hard to identify the problem. It turns out that you can't have a field named "table". Just thought I'd get the word out there as there seems to be no mention of it in InDesign Help.
Yeah, I resaved the source both ways, and even copied/pasted it into a brand new TextEdit file. Maybe the OS has something to do with it; I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8. Just now, I opened a new TextEdit file and typed up a new one-field, one-record source file, and sure enough, it didn't work. But when I deleted the "e" in "table" and resaved it, it worked just fine.

Data Merge Hanging Up on Import
Hi,
I'm using InDesign's Data Merge to build a catalog from a CSV file saved as .csv with Excel. Every time I try to import the data, InDesign stalls out and then "quits unexpectedly" after about 5 minutes. I can't imagine the data file is too big to import, as it has only 50 or so records now (there will be close to 1000 when the database is complete). Any troubleshooting tips?
Thanks

InDesign won't even make it to the preview stage, when I select the data source is when the program freezes.
As for the line breaks, all the records are the same length with no split cells or anything in Excel. However, there are cells with no values (empty, not zero). In the .csv that is translating to item A, item B,,,,, Item G and so on, which worked fine before the formulas came along.
I have a lot of logic formulas going on in the Excel spreadsheet to get the values into certain cells. Its actually befuddled Excel to the point of shutdown now, so I'm assuming that if Excel can't handle it then I can;t expect InDesign to fare better. However, in my InDesign catalog I need, on a table row, to have a field with a label displayed for it if there is a value in that field in the .csv, and have no label displayed if there is no value for that field.
For example, if the record has a hooked beak, I need the label to be beak: so the line to read beak: hooked
If the record has no beak, then InDesign would skip that line altogether and go on to the next one. Like so:
<<record name>>
<<beak>><<beak value>>
<<tail>><<tail value>>
<<etc>><<etc value>>
where <<beak>> and <<tail>> are also fields in the Excel spreadsheet, each cell's contents a logical expression based on the existence of a value in the corrosponding beak value and tail value cells. English: "If value does not equal empty, then write beak: , else write nothing." When converted to a .csv, the field's values are preserved, not the formulas.
Does that make sense? And is there a way to do that with InDesign so I don't need umpteen thousand formulas going in Excel? That would pobably solve the clog.

How to create multiple editable PDFs from data merged Indesign file
Hi
This is quite complicated but I'm hoping someone can help me and hoping I can explain it too!
I am working on a project for a client. She wants to send 150 people a 6 page PDF with fields to complete and return to her.
She has an Excel spreadsheet with some of the fields completed already so these will be Data Merged into InDesign CS6.
The short version of the question goes like this:
Can you automate the process so that once all the data is in the InDesign file, it can then create a PDF every 6 pages all in one go?
For those still interested, the long version of the question goes like this:
I have created 3 pages in InDesign with fields to complete and used the 'Data Merge' facility to add the Excel info.
I have created 3 more pages with blank fields to fill in.
Then I have made all fields editable using the 'Buttons and Forms' facility in the Interactive menu.
Then I have created an interactive PDF. Then I have opened that PDF in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and saved it as 'Reader Extended PDF' and 'Enable Additional Features'
I now have an Editable PDF with half the fields filled in and half blank to be filled in and this can be saved and returned.
Now, this would be great if it was only one or two. But I need to create 150 different versions and this is just for the Pilot study. If all goes well, this will go to 5,000 people and I can't be creating 5,000 seperate PDFS!!
At this stage, I am just focussing on the 150. So again, going back to the original question, is there a script that could be written either to break up the 1st PDF every 6 pages into 150 different PDFS? Is there even a way of extending that script to Save as Reader Extended etc? Is there a simple idea that I'm missing? Are there any ways to do this? I can use 'Created Merged Documents' to make 150 x 6 pages in Indesign so can anything be done from there?
Any advice greatly appreciated
Thanks

How to Create a Table with Merge and partitions in HANA
Hi,
What is the best way to create a Table with MERGE and PARTITION and UNLOAD PRIORITIES.
Any body can you please give me some examples.
Regards,
DevaOk,
1) the UNLOAD PRIORITY has nothing to do with the order of data loads in your ETL process
2) Unloading of columns will happen automatically. Don't specify anything specific for the tables, then SAP HANA will take care about it
3) Not sure where you get your ideas from, but there is no need to manually "flush" tables or anything like that. SAP HANA will take care of memory housekeeping.
4) Partitioning and how to specify it for tables has been largely documented. Just read up on it.
5) Delta Merge will happen automatically, as long as you don't prevent it (e.g. by trying to outsmart the mergedog rules)
Seriously, I get the impressions that this list of requirements is based on some hear-say and lack of actual information and experience with SAP HANA. There are a couple of extensive discussions on data loading optimization available here in SCN and on SAPHANA.COM. Please read those first.
All this had been discussed broadly a couple of times.

CS3 Data Merge - Missing Fileds in Data Merge Dialog Box
Indesign CS3 5.0.1, XP SP2
Hi all,
I have a document that I have applied a Data Merge to.
I use a table in Excel 2003 with contact details, name, address etc...
When I open the Automation> Data Merge Dialog box I no longer see the list off all the fields as in Excel.
However, I can preview and create the mail merged document and place items using tags e.g <<Field 1>>.
When I try to remove the Data Source InDesign always crashes But I can relink to a new Data Source, this does not solve the problem.
Thank-you all for your time and help!
Alu>>Did you perform the merge? Once you do, ID creates a new document. Which document are you looking at?
I am using the original document, not the product of the mail merge.
>>I assume it's a CSV file. ID can't use and Excel file for data merge.
Correct.
I have tried saving the document as an .inx file and then re-opening, but I still cannot view the .csv data merge fields from the Automation> Data Merge dialog box.
Any Ideas? - thx for the response Bob & K -
Data Merge not picking up all data fields
Hi,
I've been having a problem, posted here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1217090
Essentially, I have been using the script 'CSV2Tables' to prepopulate simple 2 column tables with information drawn from a CSV data source.
The tables consist of a title, and a block of information about that specific subject. Many of the blocks of information I am importing also contain data tags (<<DataTag>>)
The plan is to use CSV2Tables to populate the tables, then change data source and run a normal ID Data Merge to replace all of the <<tags>> within the tables with information from a second CSV data source.
The problem is, CSV2Tables is importing the data and prepopulating the tables just fine, but the data tags that are found within each body of text are being picked up as plain text (as Peter Spier has pointed out, they are being drawn from a plain text stream rather than being dragged from the Mail Merge panel) so when I try to run the ID Mail Merge, none of the fields are found within my document.
My question is - is there a method, or script available out there that can essentially do a Find/Change within a document, and replace plain text that appears like this <<PlainText>> with a Data Tag that is recognised by ID, which will allow me to run a Data Merge?
I have been told to check out some of the commercial plugins available out there, but registering and setting up demo's would require me to contact our IT provider for each, and that would be an exhaustive process.
Any help is much appreciated.Hi,

Multiple record data merge into paragraph styles-applies the wrong style
Hi, I've been working on this project for sometime and everytime I manage to get one part of the workflow to work another seems to break. My agency publishes catalogs in multiple formats: large-print, audio, braille, and HTML. I've been trying to redesing our work process so that the catalogs will be laid out from merged data out of comma-separated file. The data merges have worked fairly well in Word, but InDesign is a challenge. I'm merging multiple records on a page, like a mailing label. The paragraphs need to be formatted and I'm trying to apply a paragraph style to them. After much work, I think I've finally got the data merge to work correctly, but the wrong paragraph styles are applied. I'm going to apply a new master page to the data once the data is merge that uses the paragraph styles for text variable running headers and I need to build a table of contents based on the paragraph styles so I need this to work. Attached are some screenshots.
Master page set up for data merge with paragraph styles:
Here is the merged document with the wrong paragraph styles applied:
I have only a few weeks to get this process ironed out to keep to our rigorous production schedule. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.
thanks,
LinaI don't remember this happening in past versions. But I mainly use XML. And a quicky test converting your file to XML worked fine (and besides, it ends up all in continuous text frames...).
I don't do much GREP. But you can do this via a Find/Replace.
First, in your main document, you can delete the tags--but do this on a second copy of your working file!
Change your Content Placement options to not remove blank lines (these are in the Datamerge panel).
Then after the merge, change the format of the two blank lines at the beginning of the records without the two lines of data:
Note the Change Format style is changing those two paragraphs to Title.
Then rerun the find to remove the two blank paragraphs.
I suspect this can be done easier. I am sitting awaiting an appointment and cannot go much further than this for now, sorry. -
Data Merge - Change Text/Cell Characteristics based on Data Value
I am working on a letter that is sent to our diabetic patients during their birthday month...the letter will contain the last known test results and date for several measures and then recommend action based on those results.
The data comes from a text file (csv file separated by "^") generated by our Electronic Medical Record (EMR) database...
What I need is a script or tool that will recognize specific text and then change the font size and cell background for that particular field...
In the first example below, everything is normal, so there is no notification necessary...
In the second example, the BP is too high (calculation is performed by our EMR), so the csv file includes "Due Now" and "Yes" for the final two columns in the table. The script needs to recognize "Due Now," enlarge the font, change the color, and change the background color of the cell, and then recognize "Yes" and do the same.
Is this possible? Is there a tool/script/method that I need?

Have you considered programming the database application to perform the logic tests, combine the data with the appropriate InDesign tagged text markup, and output the result as an InDesign tagged text file in .txt format? You can then place the tagged .txt file in a new blank InDesign file.
Search Google for terms like "InDesign tagged text user guide" without quotes for the tagged text guide and related links. Export an InDesign file as tagged text to get an idea of what's involved. In fact, you can use the tagged text exported from your data merge setup as the basis for what the coded database needs to do. You need to open the tagged text file in a text editor, not in InDesign.

CS4: can I apply logic based on data merge?
Hello all,
I'm creating an InDesign document using CS4 that has variable text in it. Some of that variable text is "static", in that it's inserted directly from a data merge. In other cases, though, I'd like to display one block of text (I'd specify) if an element in the data merge had one value and another block of text if the data merge element had a different value. Can I do that with a script? Here's an example: in the data merge file I have a "WorkingHours" element. It can have a value of either "8-5" or "24x7". If the value is "8-5" I want to display "8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday - Friday" and if the value is "24x7" I want to display "24 hours, 7 days a week". I want the text to display in a cell in a table in my document.
If I can do this, do I just create the script, save it, then select it via the data merge panel to insert it in the cell where I want the output data to be displayed?
Thanks a lot,

Hi, Ed:
It's probably more conventional to perform this kind of logic when creating the source material for the merge, However, if the text items "8-5" and "24x7" will always require the exact substitution that you describe, you can probably create a GREP paragraph style for the cells that expect the content that needs substitution. I'm not a GREPper, but perhaps a GREP guru on this forum will suggest the proper notation to make it happen...automatically, of course. The GREP action will ignore any paragraph that lacks the exact item to be substituted.

Dynamically Update External Table Data
I loaded a data table from an external csv file. But the csv file is an output from a program that appends a new line to the csv file every couple days.
I made a Report with the loaded data, but in a couple days when a few new lines of data appear in the csv file, I want my report to update as well.
Is there a way to create a "Refresh Button" in my application that will load the data from the csv when pressed?
I have oracle database 11g express with APEX 4.1.1Hi,
what you describe could certainly be achieved, but it would have to be designed and built, it is not going to be provided "out of the box". I would probably go with an external table based on your file and a process that you would build would be callable from the button and this would do some sort of a merge of the external table data into your database table. Apart from being callable on demand, the process could also be made to be a scheduled process that loads the data on a regular basis, say once a day or once an hour, depending on your requirements. To use an external table it is assumed that the file will be available on the database server. If not and the file is available on only a client machine, then doing an on demand load process would still be possible, but a little more difficult.

Indesign Data Merge repeating images, mixing up data, etc.
I'm using ID CC and using data merge for a catalog.
when i create the merged document it repeats some of the images, uses data for other products and repeats it.
I've started from scratch, I've avoided the "preview" mode like the plague, I've used CSV and TXT. I've searched for line breaks in Excel. What am i doing wrong?"Show Import Options". , this will tell you what sort of data file you are uploading
@Shiv – only to an extend. InDesign cannot see a difference between Unicode UFT-8 or Unicode UTF-16 at this point, it just detects Unicode.
CSV is an old, can we really say, "file format"?
It's basically a text file with a csv suffix and some rules, that are or are not implemented. InDesign tries to detect the rules: what character for separating the fields? What character for a line of fields ending?
InDesign does not verify very much, if there is a orderly grid-like structure in the fields (a row and column structure) with an equal number of "cells" on every row. And a header row that holds the discription. In fact it cannot "see" a header, because the csv-"format" cannot provide a hint…
CSV is not a file format, see it more as a lose convention and not standardized very much…
I think Adobe should provide its own format for merging data and a converter tool together with InDesign where you could output to and input from a InDesign table with a header row using whatever formatting is available in InDesign.

Problems importing a datasource for a Data Merge? It might be one word...
For the life of me, I could not figure out why this one CSV file was not importing correctly into InDesign CS6. I could see the datasource in the Links panel but nothing showed up in the Data Merge panel.
Through trial and error, I figured it out.
In the CSV file, one of the column headers used the word table. It's what the client gave me, so I never thought much about it. Once I changed the word table to seating, the CSV imported properly into my InDesign file and all was right with the world.
One word, I couldn't believe it...
Hopefully this will save you from all the trouble I went through.
