What fixes and enhancements were delivered in RQMExcelWordImporter for releases 5 and 6?
I am trying to find out more about the RQMExcelWordImporter software updates. I am currently using version 4 which is documented on the Wiki, but I have not been able to find any release notes or documentation for either version 5 or version 6 of the RQMExcelWordImporter.
Where do I find this information?
Accepted answer
Hi, Bob
I am not sure if there is any official site listing the fixes and enhancements for RQMExcelWordImporter as I can not find any. From RQM defect site, I found the below defects fixed in v5.0.x and there is no enhancement:
https://jazz.net/jazz02/web/projects/Rational%20Quality%20Manager#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.runSavedQuery&id=_6TikkOWGEeWeu-zcnN1lQQ
(I guess if you have jazz.net id, you should be able to access to this)
The fixes in v6.0 and v6.0.1 are:
https://jazz.net/jazz02/web/projects/Rational%20Quality%20Manager#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.editQuery&id=_GaYakOWHEeWeu-zcnN1lQQ
Regarding enhancement in v6, I found this one planned in v6.0.2:
https://jazz.net/jazz02/web/projects/Rational%20Quality%20Manager#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=144483

One other answer
In the Wiki, it clearly states
To find out all the defects and enhancements, you can log on to the RQM project (you should have access)
https://jazz.net/jazz02/web/projects/Rational%20Quality%20Manager
And then create a query with condition "Filed Against in subtree Excel & Word Importer".
Compatibility
So essentially you should use the same version of RQMExcelWordImporter as the server. Are you going to upgrade the server in order to use a new version of the importer?The RQM Excel/Word Importer is built on the RQM Reportable REST API, which is not compatible between Rational Quality Manager versions.
