We are trying to generate documents from DOORS 5.2 using the Word exporter. The problem we have is that a number of objects contain OLE objects, many of which originated from Word. When exporting to Word, we do not find a reliable way to achieve lay-out dependent sizing of the OLE-objects. I.e., an OLE object in DOORS (e.g. a table) does not resize automatically in the Word table to which it is exported.


  1. Does anyone have the same experience?
  2. Is there a solution other than diving into the word.dxl exporter script and try to correct the problem?
  3. What happens when we go to DOORS 7? We did some tests, and found that (Excel) tables in DOORS re-size under 5.2 but not under DOORS 7? Although, after the export to Word, the two cases (dis)behave similarly

Pieter,

I've found a solution that requires the use of the InlineShapes object. For more details, please feel free to contact me at any time.
