    attribute exchange with word 2013

    Hello,

    Using this Bentley article, on attribute exchange with Word

    http://communities.bentley.com/products/projectwise/content_management/w/wiki/5517.projectwise-attribute-exchange-with-microsoft-word-tn

    I found sample templates under

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\ProjectWise\Samples

    When I open idAttributeExchangeConfig2003.doc with Word 2013 , I get a message ... This Sample is for 2003, for 2007 and later use ATTRIBUTEEXCHANGE.DOCX

    If possible, please provide a link to download ATTRIBUTEEXCHANGE.DOCX ..

    And... is anybody having workable success with attribute exchange using Word 2013?

    Thanks for reading.

    Kevin.

      IS it possible to reverse this process? Attribute exchange from the word document to the attribute properties. I know it's possible if the Custom tab is updated, however I want to be able to complete the…

      Kevin,

      We're still on Office 2010, but I'd guess the process hasn't changed much. We have an individual here who owns this process, but I believe it's not terribly complicated..

      We typically take our doc templates, open them up..click File > Info..

      On the right hand side, you'll see "Properties" with a drop down arrow..select "Advanced Properties" from this drop down.

      On the Custom tab is where we enter the name that matches the office attribute exchange entry in PWAdmin..

      .. and that should do the trick.

      hth,

      Paul

      sorry for not responded quicker ... I believe this should be straight forward... I am going to compare PW Word 2010 integration with PW Word 2013 integration before making an additional post here...

      Hmm.. that's slightly alarming as we're moving to Office 2013 shortly.

      Hopefully someone can chime in with an answer here..

      Please keep me updated if you find anything..
