HTML 2 PDF

My project required few HTML forms to be converted to PDF on the fly. I searched lots of stuff on the web and finally i got a wonderful product from websupergoo called AbcPdf.Net.

It's is very simple to use and giving excellent output. They are giving 30 days trail as well. Just check it out.

My client/PM asked me to give a page break after the title on the PDF. I was generating my PDF stuff from HTML output. The solution i derived using one of the CSS property called page-break-before. It's a good property but has got some limitation. Please follow the link.

Quite interesting to face the challanges and coming out with flying colors...(for that definitely we need to work hard...)

D365: Security Permissions for Rich Text Editor

Image
Recently I came across this issue in my organization. We have enabled RTE (MS PCF) control on one of the memo fields in CRM form. For some reason it's not allowing users to insert image inside it (preview not showing and OK not enabled). Even when they copy paste from the local devices and saves, it is not retaining the image they copy pasted.  But all these functionalities works fine for sys admin.  After going through MS docs I came across this... https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/model-driven-apps/rich-text-editor-control based on this info I head over to CRM security roles and found this entity called Rich Text Attachment under Custom Entities tab once I gave create, read, write permissions the users are allowed to insert/copy paste the images inside Dynamics CRM forms. Hope it helps...

MS Infopath 2007

Currently I'm working on MS Infopath 2007 apart from MS CMR 4.0 and MS SSRS 2005 . Infopath is quite interesting to work on. Main advantage of Infopath is, a single form can be used as both client and web based forms. My current project is a web base .net project. All the forms are developed using Infopath. The web based Infopath has limitations compared to client based forms. The Infopath forms are deployed using MS office forms server . One of the cool features i like with Infopath is the repeating controls. The repeating controls works well in web based forms as well. Below is the code which used to populate the rows dynamically on the repeating controls. string myNamespace = NamespaceManager.LookupNamespace("my"); using (XmlWriter writer = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:group1", NamespaceManager).AppendChild()) { writer.WriteStartElement("Expense", myNamespace); writer.WriteElementString("Expense_Typ...
