Invalid Bookmarks
« on: January 05, 2007, 07:57:23 am »
Hello,

I want to use generated RTF-Package documentation in MS-Word. I right clicked on the appropriate package node to copy the RTF-Bookmark and inserted a link in my Word document. Word told me that the requested Bookmark doesn't exist in the referenced rtf-document. I looked in the generated rtf an found a differnt Bookmarkidentifier on Packelevel. Now I looked  in the eap-File and found that the "copy rtf Bookmark" on the Packagenode give me the GUID contained in table "t_package". The rtf generator used the GUID contained in table "t_object".
Bug or feature or operating error?

regards Armin

Hi Armin,

the two GUIDS should be the same.  if you create a package manually they will be.  Which version of EA are you running?  I believe (from memory) this automation defect has been fixed in later versions.

However... If you model was automated prior to the fix you will still have mismatched GUIDs.  We fix them with an SQL query when we com across them.

HTH,
Paolo

Hello,

I created a new Package, moved the content from the "problem"-Package into the new Package and the Bookmark was correct. Thank you for your hint.
