NET is an advanced document processing API to perform a wide range of management and manipulation tasks in a variety of file formats. Excel and PowerPoint can have such a data store, but theyĭo not have any code-free mechanism for displaying the values in the store in documents (worksheets/presentations).Aspose.Words for. Only Word has the facility to insert data (usng content controls) that is connected to a "data store" in this way. You mentioned Office, then focussed on Word. One using VBA, but I do not have the necessary code. Obviously, if you don't have access to a SharePoint system, you will not be able to create such a document using this method (or maintain it, e.g. If you needed anything more complex than that, you would need VBA, as the others have said. "builtin properties" and "user-defined properties". You may also be able to see that the DIP is in effect in two parts. (In a SharePoint environment where the users have InfoPath, it is possible to customize the DIP).

That the DIP will work with all versions of Office for Windows (2007 and later, anyway). I am fairly sure that the basic DIP will also work, but it has never been completely clear dotx if you prefer.Īs far as I know, the content controls created by this process always work in Word 2007/2010/2013 even without SharePoint. I had to have the SharePoint site, create the Library, create the columns in the library, create a new document, open it in Word, add the sample tables,Īnd save it locally. If you want an example, here is a document I created from a Library with three columns defined by me:Ĭreating that required no VBA coding. The thing is that although this stuff is designed to work in a SharePoint environment and not all of it works correctly outside that environment, quite a lot of it does work. Again, you get little control over what is in this panel Word will also display these values in the "Document Information Panel" (DIP) and let you edit them. You do not have much control over what is inserted - the quick part is generated When you create a document in that library, SharePoint adds these columns to the list of Document Properties in the Insert->Quick Part list. If you have access to a SharePoint system and are able to create/modify Document Libraries, then you can get some (possibly even all) of what you are looking for by creating a Library that has one column for each item If you are one of them, you may not be aware of this facility. I mention this only because an increasing number of people have access to some form of SharePoint system these days. i do want to avoid using macros because at times i use these on locked down systems which prevent the use of macros.Īlso, if anyone has any recommendations for a really thorough Word training class i'd love to know more. if we can do it native Word then that'd be awesome. If the answer is, 'you need custom coding' then i'm okay with that. but my development and tool ignorance is a limiting factor for that being successful. I am not a developer though i have gone as far as downloading visual studio and trying to follow an msdn article.

that way i don't have to go through the document but could rather just update that list in the navigation pane. i would like to have all of these 'document property' list items show in a navigation pane in Word.if i could only do this one of the three, that would be a huge step forward. so basically, first i am looking for a way to add to the 'document property' items that can be found under Insert | Quick Parts. however, when i create custom content controls (let's say for customer), that seems to break the behavior where the data in that 'document property'Įxists. If i add and reuse any of those, updating one will update all areas where that 'document property' is used. there is functionality for this already with the content controls under quick parts | document property. create custom fields with tags that can be placed throughout the document and when i edit anyone of those tags, all other tagged text auto updates.

this has 2 elements that i am not sure how to do in concert together: i want to create a template document that i can fill in data one time and have it auto-populate throughout the document anywhere thatĭata may be. i am looking to build some document templates. I have a Office 2013 question which right now i am going to limit to Word.
