Importing Word Document into DOORS NG Anomaly When Using Delimiters
Good day,
The comment is: "This is a test comment to verify that comments will go into DOORS NG."
Accepted answer
Hi Mary,
When I have used the delimiters feature for Word imports I have always put the delimiters around whole paragraphs.
Those paragraphs then get imported as artifacts of the chosen type (User Requirement, System Requirement,... etc.) when those import options are selected.
You are putting delimiters around single words within a paragraph.
I think I can see what your intent is: You want 'actor' artifacts to get created and maybe somehow an embedded link to be created from the word in the paragraph to the actor artifact (?).
I don't think the delimiter option on importing is as clever as that and so the importer is getting confused and not importing your comments correctly.
I would suggest that you could try putting the delimiters around entire paragraphs instead of words within paragraphs and see if the comments then get imported correctly.
eg.
"<The Reviewers return their comments, which are used by the Editor to make a decision on the article.>"
<> delimiters = User Requirement Artifact type
This will not achieve your 'actor' artifact creation intent but it may debug the problem to some extent and may show that the importer delimiters are maybe not designed to do what you are trying to do.
