[OPEN] Using Mergefields with Dynamic MSWord tables

kcassanova — Wed, 16 May 2012 13:44:56 GMT

Hello,

I I'm working with the TXTextControl 17.0 with VS2008....have a MSWord template with some merge fields inserted, I would now like to have these merge fields inserted into a table. The number of rows in the table is unknown as the data comes from a dataset using C#. I've designed the table with one header row for the column names and initially one detail row which contains the mergefield. Is this proper way to achieve this or should I NOT use mergefields and simply just insert the text into each cell. I assume I will need to loop through the rows in my datatable and insert a new row into the MSWord table as I iterate through the rows in the datatable.

Can I have some direction on the best way to handle this or maybe an example of achieving the above with or WITHOUT mergefields....mergefields seems a little more flexible as it allows the user to change the layout without programming change while inserting text will require programming change if the user decides to change the column order or add/delete a new column.

Thank You,

Kerry

[OPEN] How to Get Bold header in a table in Txtext Control?

Ramki451 — Wed, 16 May 2012 12:15:32 GMT

Hi,

In my wpf Project i used TxText Control.
Here i am generating Table dynamically.But i am not differentiating data and header.
I want to put header with bold.
I wrote code as

Code:

  if (labResults.Count > 0)

                {

                    this._txtextControl.Tables.Add(labResults.Count + 1, 6, ++this._tableID);

                    TXTextControl.Table table = this._txtextControl.Tables.GetItem(this._tableID);



                    // Create row header

                    table.Cells.GetItem(1, 1).Text = "Test Name";

                    table.Cells.GetItem(1, 2).Text = "Result";

                    table.Cells.GetItem(1, 3).Text = "Units";

                    table.Cells.GetItem(1, 4).Text = "Flag";

                    table.Cells.GetItem(1, 5).Text = "Reference Range";

                    table.Cells.GetItem(1, 6).Text = "Specimen Source";



                    for (int i = 0; i < labResults.Count; i++)

                    {

                        // create row data

                        table.Cells.GetItem(i + 2, 1).Text = labResults[i].TestInfo;

                        table.Cells.GetItem(i + 2, 2).Text = labResults[i].Result;

                        table.Cells.GetItem(i + 2, 3).Text = labResults[i].UnitsOfMeasure;

                        table.Cells.GetItem(i + 2, 4).Text = labResults[i].AbnormalFlags;

                        table.Cells.GetItem(i + 2, 5).Text = labResults[i].ReferenceRanges;

                        table.Cells.GetItem(i + 2, 6).Text = labResults[i].SpecimenSource;



                        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(labPanelItem.Notes))

                        {

                            // Lab Panel note found then check for Individual Test note

                            // Begin Test Notes for Panel Number: 2160 TestNumber: 2110

                            notes = CLUtilities.GetNoteFor(labPanelItem.Notes, "Begin Test Notes for Panel Number: " + labPanelItem.PanelNumber + " Test Number: " + labResults[i].TestInfo);



                            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(notes))

                            {

                                this._txtextControl.Selection.Bold = true;

                                this._txtextControl.Selection.Text = "\r\n" + "  Test Notes: ";

                                this._txtextControl.Selection.Bold = false;

                                this._txtextControl.Selection.Text = notes;

                            }

                        }

                    }

                }

When i browse regarding this i got some code like this as

Code:

int tableID = 10; 

textControl1.Tables.Add(6, 3, tableID); 

TXTextControl.Table table = textControl1.Tables.GetItem(tableID); 

table.Cells.GetItem(1, 1).Text = "Date / Time"; 

table.Cells.GetItem(1, 2).Text = "Customer data"; 

table.Cells.GetItem(1, 3).Text = "Result"; 

textControl1.Selection.Start = table.Cells.GetItem(1, 1).Start - 1; 

textControl1.Selection.Length = table.Cells.GetItem(1, 3).Start - 1 

                               + table.Cells.GetItem(1, 3).Length; 

textControl1.Selection.Bold = true; 

textControl1.Selection.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = TXTextControl.HorizontalAlignment.Center; 

textControl1.Selection.Length = 0;

After adding above example into my code i got total font with bold.

Can any one help on my issue?

[OPEN] Which version of TX Text Contorl support VS 2005

[OPEN] V17 generating non-standard RTF for Hyperlinks?

Josh Bond — Tue, 15 May 2012 17:39:39 GMT

Has anyone noticed that the RTF code v17 generates for hyperlinks to external websites or to internal bookmarks lacks the link display text in the right place?

For example, notice in the screenshot below where the link's display text SHOULD be. Now, v17 will read a saved RTF file properly. But no other RTF editor will, because the RTF standard is to show the hyperlink display link in the place indicated in the screenshot below. After opening an RTF file saved with v17, any other RTF editor (like Wordpad, MS Word, OpenOffice Write, etc) will display the content of the link (the URL or the path to/name of the bookmark) instead of the link's display text.

[OPEN] Inaccurate Word to Pdf conversion

rioka — Tue, 15 May 2012 16:07:53 GMT

Hi

I'm evaluating Tx Text Control .Net Server. I was trying to convert a Word document into PDF. The conversion does occur, but the result is quite inaccurate.

These are my first steps with TxTextControl, so I do not set any particolar options when converting the file. The code is very simple indeed.

Code:

      

      var doc = new ServerTextControl() ;

      doc.Create() ;

      

      doc.Load(DocFileName, StreamType.MSWord) ;

      var output = System.IO.Path.GetTempFileName() ;

      doc.Save(output, StreamType.AdobePDF);

      doc.Dispose() ;

DLL versions
txtextcontrol.server 17.0.200.500
txtextcontrol 17.0.1000.500
txkernel 17.0.1700.500
tx17_doc 17.0.540.501
tx17_pdf 17.0.140.501

I've attached some pictures showing the original document and the same document saved as pdf.

Any suggestions?

[SOLVED] Printing White Text on Black Background

Pops — Tue, 15 May 2012 15:32:27 GMT

Hi,

I'm currently having difficulties in printing text when the background is black and the text is white.

The version of TextControl is 16 and the printer we are using is a Canon iR3235.

This is something that can be easily replicated via TX Text Control Words, by creating a table, changing the background of a cell to black and then typing in a white font. If you then look at the Print Preview, the text has vanished.

I have tried this on other printers and it does seem to look OK, which suggests a problem with this specific printer and the TextControl. All drivers for the printer are up to date.

Any help would be appreciated.

[OPEN] PageMargins vs. PageBorder

Kawoosh — Tue, 15 May 2012 09:23:38 GMT

The PageBorder class is new in Text Control 17. Would it be wise to still use the PageMargins class? As I see it PageBorder has the same functionality plus some new features. When should I use PageMargins and when should I use PageBorder?

[OPEN] Selection.Text comparison to Carriage Return

arge — Mon, 14 May 2012 08:04:46 GMT

I have a table in the Header and Footer of a page. I want to detect if a carriage return exists after a certain position. When I run code that is similar to the code below it always return True for my Boolean variable bELSE_CR. It seems that the selected text after the last image in a Table Cell thinks that it has a carriage return when in fact it does not have anything after it. Could someone please help me.

Code:

                                   Dim txSel As TXTextControl.HeaderFooter



                                    txSel.Selection.Start = 5

                                    txSel.Selection.Length = 1



                                    If txSel.Selection.Text = vbLf Then

                                        bELSE_CR = True

                                    Else

                                        bELSE_CR = False

                                    End If

[OPEN] Error - Unknow Format 1-241c

scar_lore — Sun, 13 May 2012 14:22:46 GMT

Hello! I'm AJ and this is my first post here.

Our application develop using VS2010 with C# programming using tx text control ver 16 (no sp).

This error, Unknown Format 1-241c appear when the application merge several rtf document that were saved before. Sometimes when the document have more than 10 pages, it has no problem to save and open but when merge with other document, this error will appear. However, the error will not appear if using ver 16 sp1 but the problem is the formatting already mess up.

Any help or advice other than upgrade tx version if possible?

Thanks
