Work with Word Objects

Word objects are primarily used to present textual information in a report in CDM.

CDM can leverage existing reports by importing them directly into the Word object for use in the report. You can add text, images, graphs, or data to enhance the report. Every time you save a Word object, the data is saved in the CDM database.

Note: Any Alt Text added to Excel object charts, tables, name ranges, or print areas is maintained when referenced in generated Word objects. You can view an audit trail for the report object information and content in the database and you can compare different versions.

Important: Word objects in CDM have the same functionality as Microsoft™ Word. The advanced functionality for Microsoft products is beyond the scope of this guide. However, some topics are included for your convenience. For more information, see the Microsoft documentation. Depending on the version of Microsoft Word that is installed on your computer, some of the steps that you must follow might vary slightly.
