ImportRTF

Hi all,

This happens for both the GUI method and the DXL method.

I'm importing a set of headings and texts from Word to put into a module as objects.

However, I've got a script that creates new columns as well.

The problem is that whenever I import whether by GUI or DXL, the text is pasted into every single column in my module. I just want it to be in one column.

I made sure I imported the file before the columns were inserted, but the problem is still there. Sort of suggests that it's the way DOORS imports the RTF and not how I declare my column inserts.

Have a look at the snippet:

void View1(Module m) //custom function to insert views/attributes
{
current = m

//custom views - Different set of columns for each view; this is for a single view
Column c
int i, n = 0

//delete existing columns (use delete column 0 as columns keep shifting left)
for c in m do
{
n++
}//Counts number of columns
for i in 1:n do
{
delete (column 2)//deletes columns for all n
}
//module settings
level(0)
graphics(false)
outlining(false)
showTables(true)
showDeletedObjects(false)
showExplorer(m)

//after deleting, create the new columns
c = insert column 2
title(c, "Test View Column 1")
main(c)
graphics(c)
info(c)
width(c,100)
justify(c,left)

//save view
save(view("Test View 1"))

}

From what I understand, what the manual means is that new columns are created to the right of the selected column number n = 0,1,2,3

So if I create a column at n=2, it will be to the right of columns "ID" and "Prefix".

I would think that this would stop the text from Prefix being pasted in column n=2, but it doesn't work.

Any ideas?
