I imported a large MS Word document into door. It worked fine except it gave me lots of extra line breaks.
An illustrative example: Req_1 The chain shall keep a 100lb dog Req_2 attached to the tree. Req_3 The chain shall not pinch the Req_4 dog's skin. What I want Req_1 The chain shall keep a 100lb dog attached to the tree. Req_3 The chain shall not pinch the dog's skin. This problem exists in 200+ cases. Is there a simple way to: 1. append the object text of the next cell to the current? 2. delete the next cell? |

You need to go back into your Word document and fix the line breaks there.
Somebody that did not know how to use Word was the author of the document. You will use search and replace function to look for special characters to replace: ^s^p with ^s In the above, search ^s^p (= a space followed by a paragraph mark), which is clearly wrong, to ^s (= just a space character). The correct way is .^p (=dot followed by paragraph mark). Edited: 15-Jul-2008 at 15:13 by Octavian Stanescu |

You are so right!!! Unfortunately, I've already begun linking and joining manually. Is there a DXL function that can speed this up?

There is no function that will do what you want.
And I think it is very hard to come up with a DXL script that will be smart enough to combine adjoining objects without mistake. Depending of how much manual linking is done, but I would still try to import the fixed document into a new module. Then I would save the linking info somehow, printing it maybe and try to recreate the links after. |

Check for object text that does not end in a period through DXL. Filter on these items. Should be a bit reliable. Won't be completely automated but should filter down the stuff to look at.
