I have a Sharepoint 2010 Custom List. I have created a Nintex Workflow to get all the data from the list i need and wrote it into a variable that contains a HTML table. Unfortunatelly Word only sees the code and not the table when i use this variable in a Content field in Word.
What i need is a way to get the filtered items of the list into a Word document (template) as a table.
I know how to do it with a single List Item but not for the complete list. With the Single item it works great with Content Controls but not for multiple items.
We use Sharepoint 2010 and Nintex. My knowledge of JS is zero and we are not allowed to use SPD.
This is not possible with nintex workflow. You need to create a custom workflow using visual studio to achieve this kind of behavior.
You could build an HTML file via a Build String and Web Request (w/ PUT) actions. Then use the Convert Document action to convert it into a Word doc.

First ever question post - so apologies in advance.
I have created the Custom Report in Google Analytics
and I'm trying to create a list of matching slugs to two different parent folders to sit within the same custom report.
I can get this to work as a custom report:
/courses/(course-slug-1|course-slug-2)$
the problem is I can't add this set of regex to it as well without breaking the custom report;
/study/faculty/(key-page-1|key-page-2)$
How is the way i should bundle this regex to show these pages. For context there is 63 course page urls and 5 key pages I want in this same custom report to bring it to a total of 68.
Thanks very much
Filters in custom reports get applied in series. The first filter limits the data, then second filter is applied to that already-filtered set, and so on.
You need to create the regex expression in a single filter:
/courses/(course-slug-1|course-slug-2)$|/study/faculty/(key-page-1|key-page-2)$
That should do it.
need to know how to get SharePoint List specific View among my Custom List Views or to modify a SharePoint List Schema... I explain :
Before i start i need to tell you that my need here is to have a list exactly like Discussion Board List just i need to modify its New/Edit forms. So i have 2 important creterias that i need to have :
1/Ii need to be able to acess the schema.xml file to add my custom New/edit forms to the list
2/ Or i need to be able to get the default View of Discussion Board List (the one with reply button and like etc...)
So, here are my Problems:
If i create a custom list (from Visual Studio) and i make it based on Discussion Content Type, Condition 1 is satisfied e.g. i can have a schema.xml File in where i can modify to put my Custom Edit/New forms BUT my list is being displayed not the way i want to (like described in Point 2) it is diplayed in rows and columns (no reply button etc...)
If i create a custom list (from Visual Studio again) based on Discussion Board list template, it is displayed (its Default View) just like i want to (as described in point 2) but in Visual Studio i only have a list instance, i don't have access to its Schema.xml where i can put links to my custom New/Edit forms.
I tried too many things; I tried to provision the Views programmatically just like in this : Thread but none helped me.
The last thing i tried is to take the desired view from SharePoint Discussion Lists (found its schema.xml in 15 hive) and i tried to integrate in my custom List, but i No relevant results...
So, in summary i need either to be able to import View from List to List or to be able to modify Schema.xml of SharePoint Lists that are based on specific list template (in my case Discussion Board template)
Any help will be welcome
I would like to create an announcement list webpart that shows the information like in this image I found googling:
Information is being shown in a column style, date, title and body, instead of the regular table layout that comes out of the box (shown in the links webpart under News).
Is it possible to do this without development or SharePoint Designer?
Thank you.
Yes, it is definitely possible using SharePoint Designer 2010.
You need to understand How SharePoint renders the data of a list. It is all the magic of XSLT which transforms an XML data into an HTML document.
You can customize this XSLT to suit your needs and modify the render pattern of the list data.
You can start from here:

In Sharepoint 2007, I wish to create a simple form on a public facing web page to insert a new list item - username.
I'm don't need anything fancy, so I'm hoping for a fairly simple solution.
I see this being accomplished in 2 parts:
1. capturing the user's Sharepoint ID, then
2. Inserting the user's ID into the list.
I thought the Form Web Part, pointing to my list, would be the way to go, but it appears the Form Web Part can't be used to insert new list items; but maybe I'm wrong.
I'm looking for any comment, suggestions, tips, examples, etc. for doing parts 1 and/or 2.
Thanks,
George
SharePoint Lists have new item forms by default. The filename of the form is NewForm.aspx.
Look for your new item form at http://[your site]/lists/[your list]/NewForm.aspx
If you'd like to add the new form to a different page than above, use SharePoint Designer 2007 and to insert a custom list form.
Also, the user's id is stored in the Created By and Modified By fields of the list.
Is it possible to automatically create Word documents which include list fields from a custom SharePoint list?
here is the scenario: - custom list (over 100 columns) - Word templates (not sure where is best to store them yet) - Entry Form will provide data for the templates (or partial data, ie Client name, Sales Rep) - a form that will have buttons (ie 'Create Order Form', 'Create PO')
the idea is to be able to generate partial populated templates from a custom list with a puch of a button.
Sorry to sound like a commercial :) but the company I work for has a product that allows you to do that: OfficeWriter SharePoint integration and in specific the SharePoint developers section. You can see some samples in there of similar things.
Good luck!
sure you want it in Word?, Excel is more often misused for this (make some connection i tihnk odbc or so).
