View word/excel documents in ITS

Hi,
Have any of you come across the following...
In transactions like FBV3, we can attach word/excel documents with a sap document. We can then view these documents. When I try to view the attached documents through Portal and ITS, I get a 'Select Program' dialog box from windows. I then have to find and select 'excel.exe' or 'word.exe' from program files for the attachment to open. Is there anyway to avoid the windows dialog ...
Thanks,
Smitha

If you wanted to role the execookie.txt file out to your user community, assuming they all use Internet Explorer, you could role a file which lets IE determine which application to launch. The following file worked for me:
TXT
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
JPG
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
JPEG
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
GIF
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
DOC
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
BMP
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
PDF
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
TIF
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
PPT
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
PPS
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
XLS
c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

Import Word/Excel document option greyed out

For a class assignment I am instructed to import a Word document using Import -> Word Document. The problem is that the option to import Word & Excel documents is greyed out. Yes, I have the destination file open when I try to import the document. This does not change even if I create a new, blank HTML file and try to import the document into that file.
My system:
Dreamweaver CS5
Microsoft Office 10
Windows 7
64-bit processor
Could this be an incompatability with 64-bit system? That's the only thing that's out of the norm on my computer. Is there something that I can change to make this option work on my system?
Thanks.

Drumroll, please:
"Office 10 came out after Dreamweaver CS5 & is not supported"
Unfortunately, the free Adobe technical support is staffed by who are not technical experts. The answer that you received is complete nonsense.
Office 10 is the XP version of Microsoft Office, which was released in 2002. Office 2010 is actually Office 14.0.
Like you, I have Windows 7 64-bit. I also have Office 2010 installed.
I have just created a test document in Word 2010, and saved it on my desktop. I then opened Dreamweaver CS5, made sure the focus was in Design view, and then selected File > Import > Word Document. The file was correctly imported.
As I said before, it's important for the focus to be in Design view. The following screenshot shows an attempt to access Import > Word Document when the focus is out of Design view. The option is greyed out.
I then clicked inside Design view to ensure the focus was in the correct place. As the following screenshot shows, the options for Word and Excel are no longer greyed out.
Importing Word documents in Dreamweaver CS5 on Windows 7 64-bit definitely works with Word 2010. If it's not working on your system, there's a problem with your installation. It's not a bug in Dreamweaver or lack of support for Office 2010.

Add a MS Word/Excel document to a Calender Event.

How do I add a MS Word/Excel document file to a Calendar Event so that it can be saved in the Calendar Event? In MS Outlook you just either copy or add the file to the Event and save.

If it's simple text, I'd copy-and-paste the content into an Event (you have to create it first :-( ) or add the file's URL to the Event. But AFAIK Lightning doesn't let you attach files to Events.
If you do insert an URL, you may have to think about placing the linked document somewhere where you can get at it regardless of your location. Google Docs, Dropbox or similar, perhaps.
MS products do enjoy tight integration, but then each is privy to the innermost workings of its stablemates and they can use proprietary protocols and interfaces to communicate with each other. OTOH, they don't share too easily with third party software. If that degree of tight integration is important to you, you need to decide for yourself if it's worth paying for. Speaking for myself, I am mean; I'm happier with a hotch-potch of not-very-well-integrated free open source tools. Thunderbird, Firefox, Libre Office. Oh, and Linux. ;-)

PDF Viewer/Word&Excel Reader

I'm trying to find a free pdf viewer, and also to view and read Word/Excel documents - any suggestions ???

Yes indeed, I can read PDF files, but Word & Excel seem to not want to work, I get the message - ' This document can't be viewed. An error occurred while reading the document'...any ideas...
before you say download from App Store, they all charge a fee - is there a free of charge version to solve this issue ?

Hi there, I currently subscribe to Adobe Pro Subscription (yearly) and I also subscribe to Adobe PDF pack (monthly). I only require Adobe to read and create PDF documents such as converting word/excel document or a web based document. Can someone tell me if I'm doubling up as I'm not sure of the differences between the products and would like to save a few dollars.

Acrobat Pro can do a lot more than the PDF Pack online service.
Try if you can do everything you need with PDF Pack; otherwise keep Acrobat Pro.

The error message is "Download failed. Connection to server was reset."

It happens with things as small as 200K - Word and Excel documents.

Hi Gary Jiang,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
This forum is for developers discussing issues about

Based on the description, it seems that you got an issue when you deploy the code sample. If I understood clearly, I suggest that you contact the author of the code sample from the "Q and A" tab.

Accessing Word/Excel Documents

I have some documents on my Laptop which would be handy to have access to when I update and save these...is there any way that when I log onto ITunes, that it can have access to these documents to view somehow...if there a free way to do this ??
Are there any free programs you can suggest that will auto update and that I can access easily on my I-phone...and...If I have comments on these spreadsheets, that it will show these???
I know - big ask...just curious is there is a way...

You ask for a lot of things here... but a free version of FileApp is available (have a look at what it does: http://www.digidna.net/products/fileapp
I use it (because it's free) to copy ad view some excel and word documents on the iPhone, it works fine.

How to attach a word/excel document to an html DB application

Hi,
We have a requirement to attach a document (word/excel etc..) to a customers record in a HTML db application. How can we do this?
Are there any application wizards to attach a document to the record, which can then be stored in the database as a BLOB field or can be stored in a file system on the application/db server itself.
I really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Sudheer

Sudheer,
If you look at the How-to below you should get a good idea of how you can solve your problem, just modify to suit your application.

Can I synch Word/Excel documents?

I'm running OS X 10.9.5 on both a iMac and a Macbook Air. I'm new to the use of iCloud, so bear with me. I'd like to synch Word and/or Excel documents between my two Macs (i.e., edit the file on either Mac and then have the latest version of the file available on the other Mac), but it appears I'll need to wait for Yosemite to do that, right?
If I log on to iCloud.com and click on the "Pages" icon, I get the following message:
"To use Pages, you'll need to upgrade your account to iCloud Drive. iCloud Drive will allow you to store any file in iCloud and access it any time, on any device."
BUT, the message goes on to say: "Important: If you upgrade, you won't be able to access documents in iCloud from devices with IOS 7 or OS X Mavericks. You'll need to install iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite on the following devices..."
This sounds a bit like a "Catch22". Since Yosemite is not yet available, the message seems to be saying, in effect: "to use Pages (to store a document) you need to upgrade. If you upgrade you won't be able to use Pages"
I'm confused. Any help is appreciated.

With MacOS X Mavericks on your MacBook Air and iMac, you should be able to use "Documents in The Cloud".
But it works only with iCloud-enabled apps. You would need to open your Word Documents with Pages and the Excel documents with Numbers. Pages and Numbers can store documents in the cloud and they would be synced to your other Mac.
If you want to keep the Office documents as Word documents, but still sync them in the cloud, try Winston Churchill's user tip. You can create your own iCloud drive, see this link: Using iCloud to sync multiple document types.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_mac/content?filterID =contentstatus%5Bpublished%5D~objecttype~objecttype%5Bdocument%5D
This will only work, if you did not upgrade a mobile device to iOS 8 and enabled iCloud Drive on that device. In that case you will have to wait till Yosemite will be released.

Store Word/Excel Document in Database 9.2.5

Will iWork open Microsoft Word & Excel documents ?

Do I need to install Microsoft Word & Excel or Apple iWork to open documents that are emailed in Word & Excel ? I am going to run Windows XP Pro on this machine.

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
Apples iWork or better said Pages can open Word documents and Numbers can open Excel documents.
But iWork is only avaiable for Mac OSX, not for Windows.
When running Windows you either need the MS Office package (or MS Word and MS Excel as standalone programs) or you can use the free OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/
OpenOffice is also avaiable for Mac OSX.

How to View Word 2013 Document in ActiveX Object

I know that the old method of viewing Word docs was to use a webbrowser object. This doesn't work now since the document opens in word instead. MS has a workaround, but suggests not to use it for new projects(it involves changing the registry and I'llbe distributing this app to other machines so this isn't an option). I'd like to know if why webbrowser2 doesn't show up as a usuable ActiveX object in LabVIEW 2012 and if anyone knows how to use the Word document object so you can scroll and navigate a word document.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks, But that doesn't help when there are figures(pics) in document. As A workaround, for now, I have switched to rtf files. The attachment shows what I was trying to achieve except I had to save the word document as a rtf document and load it into a rich text document container (found under .NET & ActiveX). This preserves formatting and pcitures whereas the method above does not. I still think this is not optimal as in older versions of MS Office, this was done easily as shown in the Diagram Disable Structure.
Thanks.
