Hi,



I am new to Word templates and ini files. I would like to learn more about how to use ini files which controls dynamic tables, embeeded objects etc.

Kindly request your help in getting some technical references to familiarise myself.

Thanks.

Word does not use ini files.

Thanks for your reply.



Yes. But ini files used here assists word templates to write some dynamic objects into word when generated.

I would like to know more about using ini file properties, embedded objects and dynamic tables.

Few properties to name in ini file - FieldList, MatchParam, ObjectRelativePath etc.

I tried to search these properties in Google, i could not find anything.

I'm not surprised you couldn't find anything, because Word does not use ini files and has no need of them. If your process uses ini files, that's because your document or its template has a macro that references them - and for all I know, they're not true ini files but just something given the ini extension. That is not a Word issue, per se, but of the programming code in your document or its template.

I dont see any macros in word. But the fields in these templates are populated from an internal desktop based application. Ini file which i have almost matches with VB ini file sections. but could not get more help out of the sample files i have through net.

In that case, this has little to do with Word and much to do with your "internal desktop based application", which is probably what has the code that's doing all the ini processing. Either that, or the macro code behind any processing that's being done by Word is stored in a template that's being loaded as an Addin.

Thanks macropod. I feel to understand a little bit now. Let me explore more in my system.

Thanks.
