The data is in tables and strings. The beginning and end of the word report is quiet easy. The difficulty is the middle part it can be consist of different numbers of items.
How can I made this?
thankyou

Word report with Cyrillic text

Hi all,
I've never used one of these forums before so hope I'm doing right.
I need to produce a word report with Russian & English text , if I set the system language to Russian I can type Russian characters in to word, but if I have a string constant in labview which I insert into a table in word the text from string constant changes.
Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Hi Mike
Thanks for the reply.
The document that I will be working on hasn't been translated yet, so I took the string constant from UM_confirm Exit.vi http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/24D845629A22AB6A86257473005ECF35?OpenDocument and wrote a small vi (see attachment) to see if I could put the Russian string constant into a table in word I separated the Russian & English strings and entered them into different cells in a word table. The Russian characters no longer look like Russian characters (see attachment 2). If I set the system language to Russian on the language bar I can Type Russian characters into word.
Regards

Word report with ActiveX

I would like to generate a report in Word via ActiveX. I found an
example on NI's site that should make it fairly easy. However, I
noticed that some of Word's ActiveX methods parameters have changed
between whichever version the example was written with and Word 2000.
(With Word97, the example runs fine, so it may have been written for
that version. If Word 2000 is on the machine, you need to reset the
method nodes the refresh the parameters list.) My problem is that the
target machine will be using Word 7a, installed on a server not on the
local machine. So I have two questions:
Does anyone know how stable the ActiveX interface was between Word 7a
and Word 97?
When Word is installed on a server enterprise-wide, and th
e computer
starts it up over the network, will the ActiveX components be registered
on the local computer?
Thanks in advance,

This should be pretty easy to do with the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit for MS Office:
http://www.ni.com/toolkits/report_gen.htm
In fact, the toolkit includes the MS Office Express VI, where you can specify a template document, and you can wire in whatever values you want inserted at certain bookmarks in the document.
Let me know if you have any other questions,

Multipage word report using template

Hello I am using the report generation toolkit and would like to use a template with the New Report.vi. The problem is that my report is multiple pages and I have no way of knowing how many pages until after the report has been made and so I cannot preset the number of pages in the template. So when the template is used it cuts the report down to as many pages as the template is long. Is there a way to have the full report inserted into the template having pages created as needed? Please let me know if you dont understand what I mean and I will make a second attempt for clarification.
Cheers!

How to send a 100 plus page MS Word Report with Word and pdf. attachments?

Sir or Madam,
I am not able to e-mail or have a 100 plus page report received and need your support. It contains a combination of MS Word and pdf files and attachments.
I am using MS Outlook 2007 and Google Chrome.

If your mail service allows all of that to be sent as attachments or however you are attempting that then it's possible the email server or servers receiving the email do not allow attachments that large.
You say you are sending "a combination of MS Word and pdf files and attachments". I've never sent anything like that. I have zipped various files into a zip file then attached that to an email for sending.
Googles mail appears to allow a total of 25 megabytes of attachments in a single email.
Yahoo mail appears to allow a total of 25 megabytes also.
Microsofts mail appears to allow a total of 20 megabytes of attachments in a single email.
Another option would be to upload everything to your onedrives public folder and provide a link for others to download all of it in the email you send out.
A single users onedrive supposedly can have up to 10 gigabytes loaded onto it. I suppose all of that could be used by the public folder but maybe not.

Malfunction in generating word report out of an app (using the report generation toolkit)

I placed in my program some features that generate a word report with some graphics and text using the report generation toolkit. When I'm in the developing system everything works. But the point is that I have to create an exe for a user and in testing this the report is not generated (and no error msg occurs). Does anyone handeled this problem already and could give me some hints? Thx.

Hi muchalla,
the report generation toolkit for MS office depends on the version of MS Office (not the OS). You must generate your application for the version of MS Office or use some dynamic technic.
The different versions of the llbs you need are on the CD in a subfolder called compability.
Here I have asked if some ideas to do this will work. Until now I haven't got the time to verify it by myself.
You will find here more information about using the report toolkit with applications.

WORD Error message -- Report from Template

Hello everyone,
I try to generate a "Report from Template" with transaction CG03.
I can select the generation variant and the parameter values in the next two pop-ups.
WORD is starting but then there is the error message:
"Word cannot read this document. Maybe it is corrupted. Try the following:
- open and repair the file
- open file with repair-textconverter".
This message is a translation from german to english so the correct messagt might differ from this.
When I look at my frontend PC in the local settings I see that the respective files are written, but I can´t open them.
This problem started two days ago out of nowwhere.
Additional information: Visual Basic pops up after the error message is closed with "runtime error '1055'.
A debugger is opened and this is the content of the window:
Private Sub TmpDDE()
Dim Template
WordBasic.FileOpen "C:DOKUME1chgiLOKALE1TempRehsfil0.WWI"
WordBasic.FileTemplates Template:="C:ProgrammeSAPFrontEndsapguiwwiwwi.dot"
WordBasic.Call "wwiES.S", "S", ""
End Sub
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance for your help!!!!
Best regards,
Christoph

Hello Christoph
any change happened on your client? New Windows version? New Word Version? New WWI Version installed? Did you manupulated Standad Dot path etc.? Did you change Standard.dot of Word?
Can you open in cg54/cg50 any document (ready, released or historic) without a problem and the problem is related only to "report from template"?
During WWI process a number of files are passed on to your client. Can you use Wordpad to open the files? I am not sure but I believe per WWI document there should be something like 4 or 5 documents in your local WWI path. One containing the data, one containing the template and some others (named something like resfil, lesfil etc.).
An error like you described is normally related to one of the above mentioned changes. Can you use "Report from template "regarding the same spec, same genvariant same language with a different client without a problem => then it is clear you have a local problem
With best regards
C.B.

Run BI Publisher report (with Excel template) on Windows 7

Hi, All.
Sorry for my English :)
I have some problem:
I use BIP standalone for my reports. Some reports are in Excel (with Excel template). When I run it on PC with WinXP - all is OK. But, when I try to run it on PC with Win7, then Excel is opening and writing this "Native file format and file extension does not mismatch. Before open be sure of file does not damage" (this is my translation). If I try save file on the hard disk, then file is 0 kb. But if a report has RTF-template, then it opening normaly on Win7's PC.
Have you any ideas?
Thanks!

option1:
The query should be same @ detail level, only the template has to be different for summary and details.
@runtime, user can choose to see the detail/summary
Disadvantage, if the data is huge,
advantage , only one report.
option2:
create two separate reports summary and details
and create diff data and diff layout and keep it as different report
Advantage, query will perform based on the user run report, summary/detail, so that you can write efficient query.
Dis advantage , two reports query/template to be maintained.

BO xi 3.1 u2013 schedule a template for multiple reports with different column

Hi,
I need to migrate the existing reports from SQL Server Reporting Services to BO, and the column order in the report is very important to the clients since clients have existing code to ingest these reports into their database. Now I want to schedule a single template with different parameters for all reports in BO, or create a single template with lot of parameters for all reports. My question is how I might use one template to create multiple reports with different column orders in the reports?
For example, client A has the following column order in their report: firstName, LastName, DateBirth, SSN. Client B has the following column order in their report: SSN, DateBirth, LastName, FirstName. Can I use one template to create these multiple reports?
Thanks!

Hi,
The only approach I can think of is to create a template report which uses variables
For each column you would need to variable
v_columnAName and v_columnAValue
v_columnAName would have a if statement in it
=if([client]="clientA" or [client]="clientC";NameOf([firstName]);if([client]="clientB";NameOf([SSN]);NameOf([lastName]));
v_columnA would have a if statement in it
=if([client]="clientA" or [client]="clientC";[firstName];if([client]="clientB";[SSN],[lastName]));
This would only work when you had a small set of clients.
This might be more managable if it was done in the universe

I need to make a report with graphs, and generate an exit file to word

I have to do the acquisition for a laboratory and to make inmediately a report with graphics and a constant test about the method of the experimentation

Probably your best bet is to use ActiveX and control Word from LabVIEW, this way, you can act as you were using Word directly, automating all the steps to create your report. Look for examples in the developer zone, although there will be more examples relating Excel, that can show you the way to act. If you need to use this intensively, i think NI has created a Word toolokit that you can buy.
For any particular question, just ask.
Good luck

Design a single template for multiple reports with different column order

Hi,
I need to migrate the existing reports from SQL Server Reporting Services to Crystal Report 2008, and the column order in the report is very important to the clients since clients have existing code to ingest these reports into their database. Now I want to create a single template with lot of parameters for all reports. My question is how I might use one template to create multiple reports with different column orders in the reports?
For example, client A has the following column order in their report: firstName, LastName, DateBirth, SSN. Client B has the following column order in their report: SSN, DateBirth, LastName, FirstName. Can I use one template to create these multiple reports?
Thanks in advance.

-As I mentioned you can find Template Field object in Insert menu of crystal report Designer 2008.
As soon as you select Template Field object you will be able to see a box beside ur mouse cursor. Drag and drop this box at required place. Now when you place this object in report you will get some thing like this "<TemplateField1>" listed under Formula Fields tree. Double click "<TemplateField1>" formula to add your conditions.
-I have not tested it for large amount of Customers. However as the number of customer increases the number of conditions will get increased.
For the customer that want the same ordering of columns you can put those customers under one condition.
    for Example...
          if(?Client in ['clientA','clientA']) then
                    <TableName>.<Field>......
-What do you mean be 40 columns? Do you mean 40 fields or you want to show 40 columns in report? Please elaborate.
Regards,
Amrita

1. Create one more template in WAD by copiing 0ANALYSIS_PATTREN. we have an TABs Web Item. You need to use this web Item in your WAD Template. You need to do this using Commands. When ever you click on any Tab, it should call specific Bex Query (Not Web Template you Created).
1. Create one temple which copy of 0ANALYSIS _PATTREN.
2. drag TABS web Item .
3. define the Sequence of reports in TABs Web Item Properties.
4. Set the Properties of the ANALYSIS Web Item upon execution of every Tab. you need to set these parameters using Commnds.
2. Create a brand new template by coping 0ANALYSIS_PATTREN. make necessary changes to new template use this template for where you want. this template will be different from earlier 4 Tabs one.
Hope this helps.
