SUM(ABOVE) creating !UNDEFINED BOOKMARK- ABOVE

[southlaw]

We are using v8.0 of Aspose.Words.

When our document has a table in it and at the bottom of the table contains the following field

{=SUM(ABOVE) \# "$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00)"}

when the document is streamed to disk/end user so that field is displayed as

!Undefined Bookmark, ABOVE

The functionallity is still there when we hit F9 - it will sum all the cells above it.

In version 6.5 it would keep the display as $0.00.

I've used the following code to reproduce it:

var streamFromManifest = typeof(SimpleDocumentAssemblerFixture).Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(

"PRS.CMS.IntegrationTests.MergeEngine.Server." + "TestSumField.dotx");

// Open an existing document.

var doc = new Document(streamFromManifest);

// Fill the fields in the document with user data.

doc.MailMerge.Execute(

new[] { "FullName", "Company", "Address", "Address2", "City" },

new object[] { "James Bond", "MI5 Headquarters", "Milbank", "", "London" });

//doc.UpdateFields();

doc.Save("TestSumField - ok.doc", SaveFormat.Doc);

I've included 4 files in the files.zip attachment.

1 - TestSumField.dotx: that is the template used to generate the document

2 - TestSumField - ok -v6.5.doc: that is the output of the code above when using v6.5

3 - TestSumField - ok -v8.0.doc: that is the output of the code above when using v8.0

4 - TestSumField - ok -v8.0-update fields.doc: that is the output of the code above when using v8.0 and uncommenting the "//doc.UpdateFields" line.

Hi

Thanks for your request. Unfortunately, table cell references like ABOVE are not currently supported. This feature will be supported in a month or two. Your request has been linked to the appropriate issue. You will be notified as soon as this feature is available.

You can also try a workaround as described in the following forum thread:

Hope this helps.
Best regards.

Hi

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Thanks for your request. Sorry, I missed that the thread is private. Here is code example and documents provided there.

// Open document.

Document doc = new Document(@"Test001\in.doc");

// We will use DocuemntBuider to insert new value of the field

DocumentBuilder buider = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Get collection of FieldStart nodes in the document.

// This is needed to fing formula fields.

NodeCollection starts = doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.FieldStart, true);

// Loop through all FieldStarts.

foreach (FieldStart start in starts)

{

// Check type of teh field.

// We will process only formula like =SUM(ABOVE).

if(start.FieldType == FieldType.FieldFormula)

{

// We need also get field code.

string fieldCode = "";

Node currentNode = start;

while (currentNode.NodeType != NodeType.FieldSeparator)

{

if (currentNode.NodeType == NodeType.Run)

fieldCode += ((Run) currentNode).Text;

currentNode = currentNode.NextSibling;

}

// Check if the current node is =SUM(ABOVE).

if (fieldCode.Trim() != "=SUM(ABOVE)")

continue;

// Calculate value of the field.

// This field should be placed in the table cell.

Cell cell = (Cell)start.GetAncestor(NodeType.Cell);

// If this field is placed outside table cell, we will stop calculation.

if (cell == null)

continue;

// Get index of the cell.

int cellIdx = cell.ParentRow.Cells.IndexOf(cell);

int sum = 0;

// Loop through all rows before row, where field is located.

Table table = cell.ParentRow.ParentTable;

for (Row row = table.FirstRow; row != null && row != cell.ParentRow; row = (Row)row.NextSibling)

{

// Get cell text by index.

string text = row.Cells[cellIdx].ToTxt().Trim();

// Convert value to int.

int val;

Int32.TryParse(text, out val);

// add value to the sum

sum += val;

}

// Now we should insert calculated value as a field result.

// We shoudl remove old value first.

currentNode = currentNode.NextSibling;

while (currentNode.NodeType != NodeType.FieldEnd)

{

Node nextNode = currentNode.NextSibling;

currentNode.Remove();

currentNode = nextNode;

}

// Insert new value.

buider.MoveTo(currentNode);

buider.Write(sum.ToString());

}

}

// Save output document.

doc.Save(@"Test001\out.doc");

Hope this helps.

Best regards.

Hi,

I'm working on implementing this functionality right at the moment, so hopefully it will be available in the upcoming release.

Thanks.
