Using Hotspot to link to a word document

Hi,
I was wondering does anyone know when I use a hotspot how when somebody can click on the hotspot that a word document or one alike will open once the hot spot has been clicked on.
Thanks

When you make a hotspot, you can provide the Link in the Properties panel. This is the URL of the file that you want the hotspot to be linked to. You can link to Word documents, but they are not Web documents and won't open in browsers. They would have to be downloaded. (Of course, you have to upload the file to your site, first.)

Create link to Microsoft Word document

Hi All!
I'm using Frame 7.2 and WebWorks just so you know that my file is being converted to html.
I am trying to create a link to a Word document, that shows a Word icon (not the title of the document) with a pop-up (mouseover) that describes the "action" (something like: to open the worksheet, click here.)
Any ideas?
Cindy

Hello CindyLL,
You might try the following (assuming that you use WebWorks 2003)
1. Use a special paragraph format in FM for paragraphs that contain such a link (e.g. "Link_PDF")
2. In WWP2003 map a special WebWorks Format to this FM Format
3. In the macro tab of this FM format add html code that
* displays a word icon
* and give it an alt-text that says "Click the link" or whatever
Hope this helps,
Franz.

Converting a document with multiple links to a word document

I am trying to convert a PDF file with multiple links to a word document. When the conversion is complete and the document is saved as a word document I cannot access the links - I keep getting error messages or messages that say a program is not associated with the link.

Hi laytonbarb,
We would like to help!
Are they hyperlinks? If so - you will want to insert the links back in. If they are full links do they match the links on the pdf?
Looking forward to hearing back from you!
Regards, Stacy

Command C andV stop working just in Microsoft Word. what should i do?i can't use them as shortcut keys in word documents!

Hi:
I have a really annoying problem. command C andV stop working just in Microsoft Word. what should i do?i can't use them as shortcut keys in word documents! however they are working in other applications, the problem is just in word documents!

I just had the same thing happen on my Macbook but was able to resolve it (at least for now!). Here's what I did:
Go to Tools>Customize Keyboard
You can then select 'edit' on the left side under categories. Then on the right side, you'll see lots of commands. Scroll down till you find the ones that aren't working. Ex. Editcopy, Editpaste.
Select each one and check to see if there is a command short cut. Ex. for editcopy it should read: "Command C"
If it does not (i.e. the problem), put the cursor in "Press new keyboard shortcut." Then press the command key along with the corresponding letter. Note you will not type the letters out but actually do the command. Then press "Assign." The shortcut command should then appear under 'Current Keys.' Go through and check all of the ones that aren't working for you.
BTW, this is a nifty was to add some cool commands that you use often. Ex. insert row on table, etc.
Quit Word and restart it. It should work. Hope that helps!

RH Crash when linking or importing word documents

RH9 build 9.0.1.232
Office 2010
Webhelp (custom skin)
I have created a template from a successful project which i completed over three months ago.
I am now trying to create a project using the template and getitng persistent crashes when attempting to Import or Link Word documents.
This is causing a great hold up to the project delivery.
Any help would be appreciated

Please see the article on my site about Project Templates. The script has been found to have some issues.
You say have deleted the file and then ask what will happen if you remove it. You did, you said so "Deleting the file seemed to work". If that is not what you mean, please clarify what you mean by removing the file.
If you create a project using the script, then close the project and delete the CPD, it should be OK. If there ae going to be problems, you will know pretty soon.

Links within a word-document

Hi,
I have a really frustrating problem in our portal. We´re using SAP NetWeaver Portal 6.0.14.0.0 und KMC 6.0.14.2.0
We have a Word-Document with several links to other documents anywhere in our system. These links do work.
But we also have several links to programs on the local PC (e.g. c:programsxyzxyz.exe). The word-document is integrated into a page, but we have the problem, that sometimes (not always!!!!!) the links to the local programs are changed by SAP NetWeaver Portal:
For example instead of "C:Programsxyzxyz.exe" the link is "http://npwortal.bbb.com:50000/irj/servlet/prt/programs/xyz/xyz.exe"
Why does the system sometimes replace the correct link with this wrong link. This problem doesn´t appear all the time we update the word-document. Sometimes all links are correct, sometimes after a local edit theres just one link wrong, sometimes all links and so on.
What could be wrong?
Thanks for help, we have no idea whats going on there...

Hi,
I would be really Really REALLY be surprised if KM would touch the content of Word documents. Chances are that it's Word that is malfunctioning. Try to replace one of the components (such as use IIS or Apache as store, or use OpenOffice instead of MS Office to edit).
Best regards, Julian

Link to external Word document does not work (in RoboHelp 8)

I am trying to insert a link to an external MS Word document (.doc) from HTML help (.chm) using RoboHelp for Word (version 8). When I compiled in WinHelp 2000 format, I used the EF macro to do this. We converted our Help project format and now the EF macro doesn’t work when compiling HTML Help. Is there a way to do this?
By the way, I need to stick with using RoboHelp for Word. Although I’d prefer to use RoboHelp HTML, my help project won’t convert correctly to RoboHelp HTML.

First of all, is it just this one project that has a problem compiling? Can you compile one of the tutorial projects? If so I think this may require a bit of dectective work to see what is causing the issue. Take a copy of your project. Now delete half the topics and see if it compiles. If it does, add some more content and compile again. If it doesn't compile, compile the other half. As a result of these actions (and by repeating) you'll be able to narrow down what the issue is.

Linking options for Word documents

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/WS5DFA0634-079B-4265-89D7-2A59540BAB2D.html

I'm a new user to RoboHelp10 and, based on research I've done online, I think the best use of the product for me is to link to previously-created word documents in order to create my online help project, since they are set up in a way that will translate into the topics. I am trying to create a project and to link documents instead of importing them, since I think from a maintenance perspective, this will be better long-term. I am also considering my company's my company's version control processes already in place. I chose to "Create a Copy and Link" so all the linked files are contained within the project itself, and I generated the topic for the document I'm working with right now. I then updated the Word document (via RoboHelp) and based on the help topic in "help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/WS5DFA0634-079B-4265-89D7-2A59540BAB2D.html#commu nity" I thought that updating the Word document would automatically update the topic(s) linked to it, as long as I updated the copy of the document that RoboHelp created (and I actually did this by right-clicking on the doucment and chosing edit). I saved and closed the Word document, and when I didn't see the topic updated, I right-clicked on the linked document but could not select Update (it's grayed out). If I choose Force Update I am then able to see my updates from the document to the topic. I don't understand why RoboHelp isn't recognizing the changes I make to the documents that are linked via "Create a Copy and Link". Can someone tell me what step I'm missing? And, even better, if you can understand my intntions above, and can recommend a better way to set up my project, that would be even better. Thank you, and have a great day!!!

Using OLE add Header to MS Word Document in ABAP Program

Dear Friends,
I have a requirement where I want to add Header and Footer to MS Word through OLE in ABAP Program
I am able to open the word document, through OLE,
I am stuck @ the following step.
CALL METHOD OF LO_APPLICATION 'ActiveDocument' = LO_DOCUMENT.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.     EXIT.   ENDIF.
CALL METHOD OF LO_DOCUMENT 'Sections' = LO_SECTIONS.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.     EXIT.   ENDIF.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
You have to use GET PROPERTY & SET PROPERTY attributes of OLE2_OBJECT to use headers.
Just a sample code snippet for your reference :-
DATA : GS_TABLE TYPE OLE2_OBJECT ,
      GS_RANGE TYPE OLE2_OBJECT,
     GS_CELLTYPE OLE2_OBJECT,
CALL METHOD OF GS_TABLE 'Cell' = gs_cell
   EXPORTING #1 = '1'
                     #2 = '1'.
   GET PROPERTY OF gs_cell 'Range' = gs_range.
   SET PROPERTY OF gs_range 'Text' = 'VGUID'.
   CALL METHOD OF gs_table 'Cell' = gs_cell
   EXPORTING #1 = '1'
                     #2 = '2'.
For more details search on SCN for code on creating MS word document using OLE automation.

Abhii

InDesign CS6 not linking to source Word document

When I had Adobe Cs4 when I place a word document in InDesign a link was created to the source documenent. If the word document was changed, when InDesign checked for errors it prompted me to update the link document. Now when I place a word document in CS6 it does not creat a link. If the word document is changed I cannot update the indesign unless I delete everything and place the word document again. Is there a better way?

Thank you so much. I did just that and it's working just fine.
The geniuses at Adobe told me that there was no such option.

Using menu help button to open word document

Am I able to use my USB and read saved word documents

I am wanting to know if I am able to plug in a standard USB storage device and access saved word documents or PDF's. Can this be done via a connector of some sort.
Katrina

To expand on what Diavonex has said, here is a good round-up of available devices: http://www.cnet.com/news/wireless-mobile-storage-expander-roundup-frequent-trave lers-youll-want-one-of-these/.
Also, just understand that these storage devices must be accessed using their own iOS apps and are not generally accessible as you would expect on a computer for example.

Link to open Word document

I am creating a document system with RoboHelp 6. I'd like to
create a link that would open a word document that is our business
template. This needs to open the Word program and then open the
document file.
Is this possible? How?

OK I just checked our intranet and it does in fact work the
same way as the web. Click on a link to a doc file and you get a
dialogue box asking if you want to open in Word or save the file,
that happens in both Firefox and IE and both give the user the
option to always open such files in whichever way they choose. That
option can be disabled though by the Administrator.
So what you want can be done. You might want to add a note to
the link. Otherwise it is a training matter.
Hope that helps.
