Document
Holds information about one document, especially the fields and the images. Furthermore, there is an Activate
method which lets the document get activated.
Properties and methods of the
Document object (excerpt):
Property/Method Returns Description
Activate Boolean
Activates the document. Returns True if successful.
Activated Boolean
Returns True if the document is currently activated.
DataSources DocumentDataSources
Returns the list of DataSource objects for this document.
Deactivate Boolean Deactivates the document, moving activation to the next one.
Fields Fields
Returns the list of fields for this document. This will always
deliver the complete list of fields as defined for the
corresponding DocumentType, no matter if the fields were
found by DOKuStar or not.
Name String
Name of the document. This is the DocumentType name.
Note that the
Activate and Deactivate methods return a Boolean; these methods will fire the event
OnDocumentActivating/ed, or OnDocumentDeactivating/ed respectively, which might be cancelled
by a scripting routine; in this case, they would return
False.
