Hello,
The request is kind of vague as I cannot understand what is being asked.If a category template had for example display names such as State,County,Zip code with initial values would you be wanting to create a "Document" object in livelink that would look like the content in it
Texas,Harris,77375 ?
OR
do you want to "TAG" documents in livelink with category metadata like people normally do? so after all said and done people can use livelink metadata search to find it?This is easily done with lapi,websvcs or oscript or OI.
Hi Appu,
The first paragraph that you describes is the correct. I mean, how I fill a document with values from a category?
There is some way of ding it?
Thank you.
Obed
There seems to be something wrong with the looks of what you are trying to do.In livelink when you create a category definition(template,structure) etc etc what you are doing is basically providing the end user a means to "categorize" the stuff one adds .Normally in my experience in a livelink there may be many "category objects subtype=131',but the number of objects that gets applied in many many thousand/million fold.
The Category Definition you have means in lapi like FetchCategoryVersion.All you are going to get there is the initial values a admin put there.I could use any programming language that will let me create word documents and add the values there.Then I could upload the document back to livelink.
Unfortunately I am not convinced that why a organization would like the category definition to be written back into livelink as a word document.To me it looks like even somebody could open up the categories one by one and cut and paste that info.The old request handler func=attributes.dump now restricted I beleive used to give that on the web page.
I have seen requests where people want livelink category info "APPLIED ON THE NODE" to make its way into word form fields so when you open the word document it has "automagically" filled fields.e.g the transmittal macros.That too is possible.Ask OT for a quote on that.I really do not have the knowledge to suggest doing that kind of work for free as I think it is way too involved.
very valid what you say, but just wanted to know if there is a possibility and some initial orientation to do so.
Regrads,
