How to Import Document into NAV server through FORM??

pskannaa

Hi,
I'm working in NAV 4.0, I want to import the Documents
(.doc,.pdf,etc) into NAV sever any of the location like "e:\xxCompany\Import\" . Here needs to store all the doc through the FORM with Functions->Document Import, once i click the function menu it will be asking the dialog to select the file for import, that would be maintained on the server path. Whenever i wants to open the attached doc through Functions->Open Document

Please suggest your inputs !!

Regards,

You need the import in the Database in a BLOB field or in a Folder (FromPath to Path) of your FileSharingServer?

Thanks for your inputs,

I do not want to store file in the db(blob), just wants to maintane the file in the NAV
server any path which i specified earlier instead maintain one flag is called "Attached" Yes/No. If any file is attached for the particualar record the Attached flag should be "Yes" and also provide the option for "Open" the attache file from the Server location (eg: E:\NAV\Attached Doc\...").

Like Open dialog window for selecting the file and store into server location.


Thanks & Regards,

You can use the File Open Dialog for this or W(indows)S(cription)H(ost) (to copy from Path to Path).
To open the Document u can use hyperlink() or also WSH.
to know, is a doc for the Nav Record in the specific folder, you can use (if exist()).

Here's the sample Form

Here's the sample Table

This is an old idea that can be expanded upon, if you add another option field for Customer/Vendor/Item?etc. To make the attachments specific and able to show on the cust/vend/item card.
