Walking cats, i.e. one person with roughly one hundred harnessed cats, similar to what is seen with professional dog walkers in Central Park, New York.  :)

Andy.
The desired effect!  :D

This is helping Andy, thank you. Many thanks for your patient efforts.

Now, just to round off (I hope), presumably the magical appearance of the RTF files in the master document occurs when they are generated to the same directory?

Thanks, Cat

PS does my callsign conjour up somebody walking like a cat, or somebody walking cats?

Hi Andy

Sorry, my Outlook rules stuffed the forum alert to a far recess folder.

It seems you know what you're doing with the linked document templates. Let me just check, we are talking about the same thing - that which is in the EA help files under the page heading "Create Linked Document Templates".

Now, I understand completely steps 1, 3 and 4. I guess I lost clarity in some of the detail of step 2. Taking each bullet point in turn, my questions are:
    [a]Where does the fixed content come from - is it standard corporate logo and speel type data?
    [c]No, not sure. What? How?
    [d]Same
    [e]How?
    [/list]

    I'd very much appreciate your insights (and have changed my Outlook rules).

    Cat

    Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / What are Linked Document Templates (RTF Reporting)

    The help files and RTF Reporter manual tell you how to work with Linked Document Templates. I'd like to know why you'd use them, what they are for, what they do for you?

    Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: RTF Template: Particular Tagged Value Notes En
    « on: June 24, 2010, 06:25:45 pm »
    I'd like to pitch in. Although I agree that the proposed approach to getting the particular tagged value out will work, doesn't it bind the template to the particular tag type? If that is the case, it means that it is necessary to have far more templates than otherwise. Or am I missing a trick (please)?

    Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / SQL Procedures in RTF Reports
    « on: June 18, 2010, 08:43:17 pm »
    It is easy to import SQL stored procedures into EA. ;D
    I'm having a nightmare trying to report the body of the stored procedure SQL into a report. Anyone clued up?

    Refinements to request. When EA reverse engineers stored procedures, any descriptions you've added to the model element are lost. So I nest the stored procedure in a component element, and alongside the procedure I also nest an analysis time diagram of the logic in the procedure. So my model package is structured with a set of components representing the analysis time procedures, each with a diagram of the logic and then the reverse engineered procedure itself.

    I want to report these one-by-one with the name, description, diagram and SQL code. Should be simple, yeh? I have found it to be not so.  :'(
