You can import and export repeating fields (arrays) in Filemaker, but not from. Repeating fields from Filemaker first and taking a look at the file from within a. Within the data tag in the Transform file use an structure to iterate.
I have an XML file with the data that I need to be populated on a Word document.I need to find a way, to define a template which can be used as a base line to populate data from an XML file and create an output document.I believe there are two ways to do this. Create an XSLT file which will be the 'template' and use this to generate Word documents using it in conjunction with the XML file. Use content controls in Word to create a template document and somehow map to an XML file.I just don't know the details on how to implement either way. Or not sure if there is another, easier way to accomplish this task.Could someone show an example of how this can be implemented. Just a simple example would be sufficient.I prefer C# for any coding.
I am using Word 2016 but want it to be compatible from Word 2007 to Word 2016 and everything in between if possible since users will be using these versions. Ok, found a detailed guide on using XSLT as a template to generate the Word document here:.Looks like even though this article is for Word 2007, it works perfectly in Word 2016.Only issue with this method is if changes are needed to the template later on, it takes a lot of effort to update the xslt file and it's not user friendly to do so since it cannot be updated in Word itself and the actual XML of the document needs to be manipulated.On the plus side, document generation is VERY flexible with all the power available through XSL (foreach, variables, if conditions etc.).
