I am currently trying to setup a template where the user is prompted to add "tags" to their document when they open a new MS-Word file. Currently I have broken this down in a few parts.
Startup prompt
Connect the document/script to the "tag" property (so the user don't have to manually change it)
Ideally implement a drop-down menu, so I don't accidentally tag some files with small differences such as spaces, case sensitive formating etc.
Currently I have tried most of what Word has to offer, which is why I came here. The easiest answer is to go in "File -> Information -> Tags" and edit this manually, but this is what I hope to automate. I have used the feature "Quick Parts", where I can add a field which edits properties such as "Author", "Tags" etc. The problem here is that they are not customizable, so I can not implement a drop-down menu. I have tried to use the "Developer" section in Word to add controllers such as drop-down menus, but I have not found a way to connect these to the document properties. I also tried using the FILLIN command to see if it could be used as shown below, just to test if I could set these properties from the document in this way.
{ SET bkmTitle { TITLE { FILLIN "Enter the document title" } } }
The problem with this implementation is that I don't want to press F9 in these fields when I start up a new project. I have not done much research into the startup prompt because I see this as the finishing touch, but if anyone has any advice on that too, it would be greatly appreciated.
I don't have any experience with macros/VBA, but I am open to learn if that is the easiest way to realize this project. Thank you kindly in advance.
From Charles Kenyon's links I solved my problem with Quick Parts. My solution was to extract the .docx file so I could access the .xml file within. Inside the .docx file (also works with the .dotm template file found in /AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Templates). Using 7-zip I opened the .dotm archive and went on word -> document.xml.
I made a template by editing the Normal.dotm (MS-Word template file). Here I added a Quick Part for "Category", then saved the template. I then opened the .xml file as mentioned above where I could edit this Quick Part for the template from textfield to a drop down menu (was not possible to change in Word to my knowledge).
To change it into other types than drop down menu, it is possible to add other control forms from Word by clicking on the "Developer" tab and selecting other controls such as "Checkbox". When you open the "document.xml" file afterwards, you can now see the schema for a checkbox.
When editing the "Document Properties" style Quick Parts, they are automatically linked to the document properties, which is what I wanted to learn how to do. It is probably possible to also use the document.xml file to explore how to link other fields to the document properties. I hope this answer might help others if they want to explore more options in MS-Word.
we have a bit of code with "To Do" comments. Was wondering if there is a way to create a document either in VS or Word where I can describe what is planned and then create a hyperlink of some sort to the VB code?
Visual Studio has this already integrated. Go to the menu View and select there the item Task List (might be under a subnode Other Windows).
The Task List will be now shown. Make sure you select "Comments" in the drop down, to see all TODO's from the comments.
You could use file:// URIs in comments. VS will (by default) make URIs in code clickable unless you turn it off (Tools > Options > Text Editor > $language > Enable single-click URL navigation).
I have downloaded and installed various module for scrolling text horizontally using these websites.
After I created new module and point out the position of that module, I can view that module in my web page. The text didn't appear because I didn't mention it in my module.
In Both of those modules, I couldn't find out that where have to I place the text to be scrolled in that particular modules?
I have searched a lot. But I couldn't get anything.
Any help will be appreciated!
Thank you in advanced!
These extensions display text from articles. So all you have to do is simpley:
Create a category in the Content Manager
Create some articles and assign them to your newly created category
In the Module settings, there will be an option to choose which category you wish to display the articles from, simply select your category
Hope this helps
There is no need of using any other modules for scrolling the text.
I used Custom HTML as menu type and write the code on editor.
The steps I have done as below:
Go to site -> Global configuration -> set Editor-None in default editor
Go to Extension-> module Manager -> New -> select the module type as Custom HTML
Copy the html code for scrolling text and Paste it in the text part and save the module.
Check your site. Now, your site is having the scrolling text. Then, You can change the Editor as before.
I have got a word document with two pages. The margin of the page-header should be different on the two pages. I tried a lot to have a margin of 4 cm on the first page and 9 cm on the second page but with no success. I used Word 2003.
What I did:
Went to the second page and opened the "header and footer" bar.
I added the page-numbers and top-margins and clicked on "page setup" on the "header and footer"-bar
Afterwards I checked the box "different first page" and modified the header for the first page, too.
Problem:
THE MARGIN OF PAGE-HEADER IS THE SAME ON BOTH PAGES
Additional Info:
Actually I found this tutorial but it did not help me:
http://wordfaqs.mvps.org/Letterhead.htm
It's easy if you know it:
Enter the header on the second page. Add as many "returns" as you need to widen the header to the bottom. Sometime the "returns" in the header have a delay. Finally click on "different first page". That's it! Now you have a different margin on the first page compared to the following pages.
It is confusing that word has an Option for the header-margin. This option changes the header only globally.
For this you need to break the links between two pages for the header section. Follow the following step:
Create the doc and click the Page Layout tab.
In the Page Setup group, choose the appropriate section break option from the Breaks dropdown.
In Word 2003, choose Break from the Insert menu. Choose a break from the resulting dialog and click OK.
Double-click in the new section's header space. In the context Design tab, click the Link To Previous option in the Navigation group. Here you may found the the link is disabled. This is because of you have not selected the appropriate break. Try with different section break.
In Word 2003, choose Header and Footer from the View menu to open the header in edit mode.
Click the Link To Previous button in the Header and Footer toolbar to break the link.
Now the links has been broken. You can change you header and footer to desired height/width.
I have checked this from here and found working fine in office 2007 as well.
I am getting following errors.
libxml/tree.h no such file or directory
I have already added libxml2.dylib to my project, however I am getting this type of trouble.
Please help me.
Follow the directions here, under "Setting up your project file."
Setting up your project file
You need to add libxml2.dylib to your project (don't put it in the Frameworks section). On the Mac,
you'll find it at /usr/lib/libxml2.dylib and for the iPhone, you'll
want the
/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS4.0.sdk/usr/lib/libxml2.dylib
version.
Since libxml2 is a .dylib (not a nice friendly .framework) we still
have one more thing to do. Go to the Project build settings
(Project->Edit Project Settings->Build) and find the "Search Paths".
In "Header Search Paths" add the following path:
$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2
Also see the OP's answer.
Adding libxml2 in Xcode 4.3 / 5 / 6
Adding libxml2 is a big, fat, finicky pain in the ass. If you're going to do it, do it before you get too far in building your project.
You need to add it in two ways:
1. Target settings
Click on your target (not your project) and select Build Phases.
Click on the reveal triangle titled Link Binary With Libraries. Click on the + to add a library.
Scroll to the bottom of the list and select libxml2.dylib. That adds the libxml2 library to your project.
2. Project settings
Now you have to tell your project where to look for it three more times.
Select the Build Settings tab.
Scroll down to the Linking section.
Under your projects columns double click on the Other Linker Flags row.
Click the + and add -lxml2 to the list.
Still more.
In the same tab, scroll down to the Search Paths section.
Under your projects column in the Framework Search Paths row add /usr/lib/libxml2.dylib.
In the Header Search Paths and the User Header Search Paths row add $(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2.
In those last two cases make sure that path is entered in Debug and Release.
3. Clean
Under the Product Menu select Clean.
Then, if I were you (and lets face it, I probably am) I'd quit Xcode and walk away. When you come back and launch you should be good to go.
For Xcode 6, I had to do the following:
1) add the "libxml2.dylib" library to my project's TARGET (Build Phases -> Link Binary With Libraries)
2) add "$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2" to the Header Search Paths on the TARGET (Build Settings -> Header Search Paths)
After this, the target should build successfully.
You also need to add /usr/include/libxml2 to your include path.

Ray Wenderlich has a blog post about using gdata that solves this problem. Basically these simple steps:
In XCode, click Project\Edit Project Settings and make sure “All Configurations” are checked.
Find the Search Paths\Header Search Paths setting and add /usr/include/libxml2 to the list.
Finally, find the Linking\Other Linker Flags section and add -lxml2 to the list.
original post: read and write xml documents with gdataxml
I found the same, I had to add $(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2 for the latest Xcode (4.3.x). ALSO, what kept me circling around for hours is the fact that I was modifying the "TARGET" and not the "PROJECT" (the new UI of Xcode is so intricate that its easy to overlook this). You need to modify the PROJECT!
Another solution. do all the steps in header search path etc. and make sure your selected configuration in project in Project settings is the correct one. When you double click on project build settings ,you may be changing in Distribution settings, But you are trying to add header search path in "Debug" settings. So make sure you are in correct settings. or choose all settings
I found that with xCode 4.3.2 I had to enter
$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2
into the Header Search field rather than simply
/usr/include/libxml2
As of Mavericks (OS X 10.9) the /usr/include directory is gone. Half of the answers here are obsolete, as the application will not compile until you sort out the include directory.
I solved the problem creating a symbolic link to MacOSX SDK in terminal, using the following command:
sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/include /usr/include
The application now compiles again.
I'm not sure what the difference is but add the include path to the project as well as the target.
On Mountain Lion I was facing same issue, which was resolved by adding /usr/include/libxml2 to include paths with flag "recursive", use this if all above is not fruitful.
I had this problem when I reopened a project (which was developed on XCode 3.something on Leopard) after upgrading to Snow Leopard and XCode 3.2. Curious enough, it only affected some kinds of builds (emulator builds went fine, device ones gave me the error). And I have libxml2 at /usr/include, and it indeed contains libxml/tree.h.
Even the magic "Clean" did not work, but "Empty Caches..." under the "XCode" menu (between the Apple logo and File) did the trick (was that menu there in previous versions?). Beats me the reason, but after a clean there were no more complaints regarding libxml/tree.h
Also select "Always Search User Paths" to YES. In XCode 4.3.3 its by default NO
Please follow the following steps
Adding libxml2
libxml2.dylib can be found on your mac machin at /usr/lib/libxml2.dylib
Change "Header Search Paths"
Click on [Project Name] (in left panel) -> Project -> Build Settings -> Select All (default is Basic)
Type Header Search Paths in search box
Double click on Header Search Paths -> + -> "$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2"
Add -lxml2 to "Other linker flag"
Search for "Other Linker Flags" as search in step 2
click on the "Other Linker Flags" row. Click the "+" and add "-lxml2" to the list.
Change your project type to ARC -> No i.e Automatic Reference Counting to No
You can search ARC as per in step 2
Xcode 4.5
I have used The CW's solution entirely.
The only exception is that $(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2 didn't work for me, and I had to add "$(SDK_DIR)"/usr/include/libxml2 to my Projects Header Search Paths and User Header Search Paths.
After that project builds successfully.
EDIT: I have Google GData project inside my project (called MyProject) (my project uses). GData requires libxml. To build project MyProject successfully, I add "$(SDK_DIR)"/usr/include/libxml2 to Header Search Paths of MyProject and no to Header Search Paths of GData . If I didnt add it to MyProject, project did not build).
I found this visual tutorial useful.

This is working and for Xcode5 too! Thank you!
Don't put libxml2.dylib under frameworks folder put it under root just below the root(Top left blue icon )
Then Click on the Project (TOP Left blue icon) ,GO to Build Settings,in the search box type "Header Search Paths" and then add the this "$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2"
This code resolve my issue hope it will help you fix this
#Aqib Mumtaz - I got it working by following the instructions in Parris' note above entitled "Adding libxml2 in Xcode 4.3 / 5 / 6". The step in using a Framework Search Path does not work and the compiler complains. Big kudos to that fella anyway!
I am using Xcode 6.2b3
Regardless of the version of Xcode you are using, it is buggy. Don't always assume that compile errors are real. There are many times when it does not follow header search paths and includes clearly listed are not found. Worse, the errors that result tend to point you in different directions so you waste a lot of time dinking around with distractions. With that said...
Recommend baby steps by starting with this exactly...:
create a single window Mac OS X Cocoa project called "Bench Test"
add XpathQuery into your project source directory directly in the Finder
click on the tiny folder icon under the project window's red close button
drag XpathQuery (folder if you contained it) into the project assets on the left of the project window's display
drag /Applications/Xcode/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.10.sdk/usr/lib/libxml2.2.dylib into your project assets, at the bottom. This will add it into your "Build Phases" -> "Link Binary With Libraries" the easy way
click on the "Bench Test" project icon in the project assets column, top of the left
search for "Other Linker Flags" under "Build Settings"
add "-lxml2" (sans "") to "Other Linker Flags" under the "Bench Test" project icon column
search for "header search" under "Build Settings"
add "$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2" (sans "") to "Header Search Paths" under the "Bench Test" project icon column
add "$(SDKROOT)/usr/include/libxml2" (sans "") to "User Header Search Paths" under the "Bench Test" project icon column
Notes:
Mine would not work until I added that search path to both "Header Search Paths" and "User Header Search Paths".
To get to the libxml2.2.dylib in the finder, you will need to right click your Xcode icon and select "Show Package Contacts" (editorial: what a hack.. cramming all that garbage into the app)
Be prepared to change the linked libxml2.2.dylib. The one inside Xcode is intentionally used to ensure that Xcode gets something it knows about and in theory was tested. You may want to use the dylib in the system later (read up in this thread)
As I am using Xcode 6.2b3, I may have a newer libxml2.2.dylib. Yours could be named slightly different. Just search the folder for something that starts with "libxml" and ends with ".dylib" and that should be it. There may also be an alias like "libxml2.dylib". Don't use that right away as resolving an alias adds another variable into the Xcode "what could have bugs" equation.
For sanity sake, I make aliases of the external libraries, rename them to indicate which one they are, and keep them at the same level as the project file in the Finder. If they change location, change name, etc, the alias will have in it's Get Info, the original file's full path for later detective work to get the project compiling and linking again. (symlinks break too easy and are not natural to the Mac)
Last thing, and very important, see http://www.cocoawithlove.com/2008/10/using-libxml2-for-parsing-and-xpath.html where you can download XpathQuery and get some more goodness.
hope this helps.

I solved in three steps inXcode 8.0 + Unit Test Project
1) I added libxml file to the Build Phases.follow this link
2) I added Other Linker Flags as -ObjC (For both project and test project targets)
3) I setup Header Search Path as "${SDKROOT}/usr/include/libxml2" (Don't forget double quote in either side) (For both project and test project targets)
One of them will solve the issue. If not you have to apply all three of the above.
i tought i added wrongly, then i realize the problem is it not support arc, so check the support one here, life saver -> http://www.michaelbabiy.com/arc-compliant-gdataxml-library/
