Saving only a portion of a Microsoft Word template into a new document using LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit

[RyanWright]

I have a Microsoft Word template I want to populate programmatically with test data. The template contains both explanatory text and a data sheet section with test data placeholders (bookmarks). Using the Report Generation Toolkit for Microsoft Office, I have been able to successfully populate the placeholders with data and save the results into a new Microsoft Word document. The problem is the new Word document contains not only the test data but also the explanatory text that was in the original document template. Ideally, I would like to have the generated document contain just the test data without the accompanying text. Is it possible to do this usi
ng the Report Generation Toolkit?

Hello Ryan,

Two easy options come to mind.

1. You may want to consider using an �ink annotation� instead of regular text for your explanation.
2. You can programmatically do a find and replace on the explanatory text. Have LabVIEW find the whole paragraph, and replace it with nothing.

If none of these suggestions help, or if I�m not correctly understanding your issue, please reply with comments or answers to the discussion above and any additional information that may help, and I�ll be happy to look further into it.

Have a nice day!

I would like to print and save only a MS Word document portion which contains populated test data.  For example, after page 5 of 150 of a document is populated with data, I would like to save and print only that page 5 as needed. 

Thank you.
