 |
|
I have a OO-template (*.stw-file) which contains several text-fields. If I create a document out of the template then a modal dialog-window pops up asking me for text input. I m doing this via OLE-automation (using VB) therefore I loose control on creating the document because my "workflow" stops (-> modal window).
Is there any possibilty to open the document in some kind of silent / quiet mode? The user should do the field-inputs after the creation of the document has finished, e.g. by <CTRL>+<SHIFT>+<F9>.
Thanks, any help would greatley be appreciated |

Have you tried to load the document with the property UpdateDocMode?
May be it's the right place to look. It proivdes the settings:
NO_UPDATE Do not update document.
QUIET_UPDATE Update document if it does not require a dialog. Otherwise do not update. For example a link to a database can require a dialog to get password for an update.
ACCORDING_TO_CONFIG Produce update according to configuration settings. If there are no settings use dialog.
FULL_UPDATE Update document even if it does require a dialog.
Using NO_UPDATE or QUIET_UPDATE could help you with your problem.
But It's just a guess!

I have tried both properties with no success:
| Code: |
args(n).Name = "MacroExecutionMode"
args(n).Value = 0 'NO_EXEC |
and
| Code: |
args(n+1).Name = "UpdateDocMode"
args(n+1).Value = 0 'QUIET_UPDATE |
There must be another approach... |
