workflow to open word ducument and populate fields...
I need help creating a workflow... I have a form with a button and I need that button to push the values of the fields to a word document or template. I tried using dde.ini but I can't set it up to put the field values only(without the field name/id) to a specific location on the word template.

I believe you need to use an OLE automation action. Gidd's site has some good examples of using OLE http://www.buoyantsolutions.net/Download_OLE.html Fred -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rocky - Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2007 11:25 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: workflow to open word ducument and populate fields...

Hello Rocky, This can be done with OLE or DDE. The key is to use bookmarks and then replace the bookmarks with the values from your fields. I can parovide a specifc example if you need Ed LeBlanc, RAC, ITIL Senior Consultant RIGID Systems, LLC 10440 little Patuxent Parkway Suite 200 Columbia, MD 21044 Fax 410-715-0848 From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) on behalf of Rocky - Sent: Wed 8/15/2007 12:24 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: workflow to open word ducument and populate fields...
