Error during Opening Layout on PDF Forms

Former Member — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 08:01:35 GMT

Hi All,

I am trying to develop a PDF Form and I have succcessfully created interface and when i try to create a form, upon pressing the LAYOUT Tab or Button i get an error message and the trnasaction closes down

Error Details are:

==================================================================================

Error while opening document

Message no. SOFFICEINTEGRATION143

Diagnosis

An error occurred in the desktop application while opening a document.

Procedure

Check first whether you can insert a document from this desktop application as an embedded object in another application. The necessary menu item is usually 'Insert --> Object'. The application then lists all of the OLE document types. Choose the type corresponding to the desktop applciation. If the insertion fails, the error is in the desktop application itself.

This error has various causes. Often, it is caused by activating certain add-ins. Sometimes, the desktop application is wrongly installed. The error should not recur once you have disabled any add-ins or reinstalled the desktop application.

Procedure for System Administration

If you cannot solve the problem as described above, enter a problem message. There are notes relating to how to generate the log file using the program SAPROFFICEINTEGRATIONTRACE.

===============================================================================

I check with the guys who do the SAP GUI installation and he did all he can do with no success. My GUI is 710 version with Patch level 7

Can anyone help me in identifying what I should be doing to have Layout opened in my system?

Thanks in advance to all of you,

Rgds,

Lakshmi

Please follow these steps.

1) uninstall all adobe related stuff

2) uninstall sap gui also

3) again install sap gui

4) Then install all adobe related stuff like ALDsetup.exe, xACF_NW04_SP21.exe

5) Just open the formdesigner.exe from Designer 7.1 folder from your desktop

6) Then go to T-code SFP and try to open the layout, it will work fine.

Take the help of basis if required.

Hi,

First check whether you have installed ADS on your local machine. If not then ask your BASIS team to get you installer for ADS. Install it on your local machine and then you can open the layout tab. If you have installed it already then try to reinstall. There might be some problem with the installation.

Cheers,
