Question again :?

Esteemed BO Gurus.,

My clients want me to have letters done to the whole world ( In the order of 1000’s).
Here the letter formats change depending on the text , the country … etc.
( The header like the address, Dear Mr John Doe, date… etc ).
What I mean is the letters contain static text and also variable text.
static text can be stored in the database but the variable text cannot be or should be replaced with static text.( every time u print a report)
The variable text is dependent on the region of the world. ( eg Africa has a different format then Americas) Now my question is :
Can BO handle letters of my type . I am sure it should be able to?
How do we change variable text - can BO handle it or should we use a data window like power builder or Visual Basic… etc.

– OR —

Can a PB or VB application call a BO on the data window…? ( OLE concepts I guess ).

Can anyone pl enlighten me …

Thanks

Please, consider this Idea. At end, I will attach the code. - You have two documents: the first contains the parameters,
the second, the document with the subject. - One script. It refreshs the first document, and gets
each data and refresh the second document. Finally, the document can be printed.

Attach the script an two documents that work with the Evaluation kit Universe.

Please, change the string with the information correct.

Const DocumentoParametros = “Paises.rep” 'Document with Par·metros
Const DocumentoBase = “documento.rep” 'Document for refresh/and
printing
Const ObjetoParametro = “PaÌs” 'This is the Text prompted
(parameter)
