Problems with Excel export of images

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

Dear 360 Works Team

In our FileMaker Solution we want to create an Excel report including text, numbers (dates) and images via Scribe.

The FileMaker export of text and numbers works fine. But we have a problem with the export of images in the xlsx.

After the Creation of the Excel reports all text- and number elements are in the .xlsx but the image not.

 

When we open the generated .xlsx, Excel shows the attached error massage:

992205234_Errormassage1.thumb.jpg.ac75b82202421eb15c242b6a8df291de.jpg

1116722266_ExcelError105800_01.jpg.07a89b9664fedc23ad6866e2d6f59b4f.jpg

For the export of the pictures, we test following script commands:  

 

ScribeDocValue[Name:“F5“;Value: table:: cell]

 

ScribeDocWriteValue("Table1!F5", table::cell)

SetVariable[$PicXYZ; Value: ScribeDocWriteValue("Table1!F5", table::cell)]

 

Do we make a mistake, or could this be a known bug?

 

Our Systemconfig:

FileMaker Pro Advanced 16.0.4.403

Excel 2010 and Office 365;          
360 Works Scribe 3.08 and Scribe 3.09

Server:

FM Server 16.0.3.304
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
Version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601

Could you help me please?

Thanks

Hi Franziska,

     I am not able to read the error message in your screen shot but I assume it says something like "The file is damaged or corrupt, would you like Excel to repair it?". What file types are the images that you are writing?

Hi Ryan,

thank you for your quick response.

Yes your right, the first error massage asks for repairing the file. The second massage is the information that Excel repaired ore removed some kind of shape.

The images we used are different JPGs. We have also tried the JPGs wich are in the demo database of the Scribe plugin. But it also did not work.

Regards

Franziska

Hi Franziska,

I sent you a Private Message yesterday, please take the time to read it now.

Hi Franzika,

    We had an issue reported recently that was similar to yours. Can you try this beta build of Scribe and let me know if the issue persists?

Hi Ryan,

Thanks

Apologies, someone must have deleted the file from the link. I have re-uploaded it to the same location.
