Hi, Can anyone get me jsx coding to open bunch of files in Framemaker?

Hi, I have a basic sample here on how to open a single file:

Might give you some ideas.

Hi Russ,

I have already checked on this site and am still unable to open all the files.

Looking forward you help here.

Thanks,

Always start with the smallest possible task. Can you open one file? If not, why not? What is going wrong?

Hi Raj, hi Praveen,

please help us to help you and give us more informations:

- have you managed to open ONE file? (Russ' example and Ricks question above)

- did you debug step by step?

- at which point you get the problem?

- How does you "var InputFiles" look like? Array of Strings?

- how does your function "get_File" look like?

etc.etc.

Hi, I've used the below code to open the files, but getting an error saying "Internal Error 15024. FrameMaker has detected a serious problem and must quit."

var path = ChooseFile("Browse for file", "", "", Constants.FV_ChooseOpenDir);

var InputFiles = get_File(path,[],['.*'],"FILE");

for(var i=0;i<InputFiles.length;i++){

                  Open(InputFiles,false);

}

Hello Raj,

From the source lines you are showing it is obvious to me that you have not read the Scripting Guide, and you have not used the search on this forum to find an answer that has already been given.

The Scripting Guide specifies which parameters the Open( ) method requires, and you are not providing them. Please try to use the Guide before you post your requests for help on this forum. We all have jobs to do and even though we are willing to help newbies, we should not be spending our time repeating what was said before or what is written in the Scripting Guide.

Kind regards and good luck with the learning curve
