Smart document is a document that uses programming methods to define operations that users can perform and help users. Smart Document can be used for special operation procedures, such as expenditure reports or for special content creation, such as court complaints.

Smart Document is technically flexible. You can use VB 6.0, VB. net, C #, VC ++ 6.0, VC ++. net and any.. NET Framework. You can even use Microsoft Office Smart Tag list (mostl) Schema to create a smart document that defines controls using XML.

Because smart document is designed to work with Word 2003 and Excel 2003, we can use some of the outstanding features of these two software. For example, you can use word to create a form and use range Protection Technology to specify the editing permissions of different users for different parts. The following example of "Employee assessment" is a good description. You can use the "add-on" in the document or template of Smart Document, which is similar to using macros.

In addition, Smart Document can interact with databases. For example, SQL Server or Access 2003, you can also use the BizTalk Server to track workflows. Smart document can also be used with other office applicationsProgramFor example, you can send an email through Outlook 2003 or use Power Point 2003 to create a slide. The same applies to other client applications.

Smart Document can be deployed on an enterprise's internal network, inline king, or Internet. Web Services, Windows SharePoint servces, and Office Sharepoint potal Server 2003 are released.

Application Case expenditure report

After filling out the Fund report, employees of an enterprise must submit a review to the relevant departments repeatedly until the accounting department bills them. You can use smart document to develop an Excel table, which can help you fill out the form and automatically enter the approval process. Smart Document can be programmed to ensure that all items are complete before the form is submitted for approval. Then, the Smart Document accesses the employee database to determine the approver of the document, and then delivers it to the relevant personnel. After the application is approved, it is finally sent to the accounting department. All these logics are included in smart documents and related procedures, so the Fund report can handle the relevant process on its own.

Employee Assessment

Both large and small companies must formally assess their employees. At least one form is required for the assessment process. Using Smart Document to develop an assessment form can make the assessment process smooth. Intelligent Document users are employees or users are administrators. Different tables can be displayed based on the user type. Intelligent documentation helps you complete the filling of each part. Check whether the entered data is complete and whether the "Submit" button should be displayed. The form is submitted and sent to the assessment administrator. If the information is invalid, the table may be returned. This process may be repeated. Until the assessment is completed. Then the table is archived on its own.

Court litigation and contracts

A law firm needs to develop a Smart Document to create management contracts. After the new contract is made, the employee can automatically typeset and format according to the contract type. The "document snippets" of Smart Document can insert text samples to the document. For greater flexibility and efficiency, the text sample can be in an external file, such as Word 2003 format. To change the text sample, you only need to edit and save the external file. New samples will be used for the new documents created later.

Newspapers and magazines

Documents in newspapers, magazines, and magazines often use common styles and standard styles. These are reusable components. There may also be workflow processing during the review process.
