getDocumentFieldName | |
public java.lang.String getDocumentFieldName() |
If you have a mapping from a document field name to a different data source field name, then this is the original field name as specified in the document.
If you specified a field name prefix, for example "Image:MyFieldName" in the document, then DocumentFieldName returns field name without the prefix, that is "MyFieldName".
Example:
Shows how to mail merge HTML data into a document.// File 'MailMerge.InsertHtml.doc' has merge field named 'htmlField1' in it. // File 'MailMerge.HtmlData.html' contains some valid Html data. // The same approach can be used when merging HTML data from database. public void mailMergeInsertHtml() throws Exception { Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "MailMerge.InsertHtml.doc"); // Add a handler for the MergeField event. doc.getMailMerge().setFieldMergingCallback(new HandleMergeFieldInsertHtml()); // Load some Html from file.

public Field getField() |
getFieldName | |
public java.lang.String getFieldName() |
If you have a mapping from a document field name to a different data source field name, then this is the mapped field name.
If you specified a field name prefix, for example "Image:MyFieldName" in the document, then FieldName returns field name without the prefix, that is "MyFieldName".
