What, Who and Why?



What is the WP Document Interface ToolKit?

The WP Document Interface ToolKit provides the developer with document creation
and formatting functions that are fully compatable with WordPerfect version 5.1
standards, and can be accessed from any C or Clipper program.

All WordPerfect codes created from the WP Document Interface ToolKit are
identical to any formatting codes that you would create directly from within a
WordPerfect document. These codes can be edited and deleted, just as if they
were originally created from within WordPerfect!


Who Should Use the WP Document Interface Toolkit?

Any developer who is writing applications using C or Clipper, and has a
requirement to merge application information into a WordPerfect document!


Why Should I Use the WP Document Interface ToolKit?

Seamless Interface! For any developer who is merging information from a database
into WordPerfect documents, the WP Document Interface ToolKit is a MUST!

If you have ever tried to write and debug a complex macro from within
WordPerfect, you will appreciate this opportunity to avoid using the WP Macro
features - and continue to write programs in the platform you are most
comfortable!

Sure, you can create a WordPerfect macro that merges ASCII delimited database
information into your 'preset form'...but what happens if your macro runs slowly
(especially on a LAN), or your users cancel from the macro before it has
completed? A partically completed or an empty file!

The routines that make up the WP Document Interface ToolKit allow you to merge
database or text information from your application directly into a WordPerfect
document - Quickly and Accurately! No more truncated macros, no more missing
data! No more creating macros within WordPerfect!


Compatability
-------------

WordPerfect (version 5.1)

The WP Document Interface Toolkit creates WordPerfect
5.1 compatable document files.


Clipper (Summer '87 & 5.0)

Using the WP Document Interface Toolkit's object files
CLP2WP.OBJ and CLPSUP.OBJ, linked with your application
provides compatability with Clipper Summer '87 and
version 5.0.

See Appendix B - Linking for more information on
linking object files with your application.


Microsoft C (through version 6.0)

Using the WP Document Interface Toolkit's object file
MSC2WP.OBJ, linked with your application provides
compatability with Microsoft C (up to and including
version 6.0).

See Appendix B - Linking for more information on
linking object files with your application.




Borland C, C++ (through version 2.0)

Using the WP Document Interface Toolkit's object file
BCC2WP.OBJ, linked with your application provides
compatability with Borland C and C++ (up to and
including version 2.0).

See Appendix B - Linking for more information on
linking object files with your application.

Function Reference Guide
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Document File Handling Functions wpopen()
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Function.................. wpopen()

Description............... Creates a WPC v5.1 document file, and then Opens
the file that was created

Arguments................. =character=file specification

Return.................... logical
=successful
=unsucessful

Comments/Example.......... This routine CREATES the WPC compatable
document file - that is, a new document file
will exist after this command has successfully
completed. Once the document file is created,
it remains open during the session until a
WPClose() call is made. By leaving the file
open, you have access to all document formatting,
graphics and text commands. These commands will
be placed into the document that is created and
opened by using the WPOpen() call.

Reminder: Do Not issue a WPClose() directly
after a WPOpen() if you intend to add any
formatting, graphics or text commands. The
document file must remain open to insert text and
formatting codes. Only issue a WPClose() command
directly after a WPOpen() when you intend to
create a WPC document with nothing in it.

Clipper Example:

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51"
If WpOpen (filespec)
?"Successfully created and opened document"
Else
?"Unsuccessful"
Endif

C Example:

int fspecsiz;
fspecsiz=25;
char filespec[fspecsiz+1];
filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51";
wpopen (filespec);

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Document File Handling Functions wpclose()
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Function.................. wpclose()

Description............... Closes a WPC v5.1 document file, one that was
previously created/opened from the WPOpen()
function

Arguments................. None

Return.................... Nothing

Comments/Example.......... This routine CLOSES the WPC compatable
document file - a document file that had been
previously opened by using the WPOpen() function.
By issuing a WPClose(), all text, document,
and graphic codes can no longer be written to
the document file.

Reminder: Do Not issue a WPClose() directly
after a WPOpen() if you intend to add any
formatting, graphics or text commands. The
document file must remain open to insert text and
formatting codes. Only issue a WPClose() command
directly after a WPOpen() when you intend to
create a WPC document with nothing in it.

Clipper Example:

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51"
If wpopen(filespec)
?"Successfully created and opened document"
...
wpclose()
Else
?"Unsuccessful"
Endif

C Example:

int fspecsiz;
fspecsiz=25;
char filespec[fspecsiz+1];
filespec="C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51";
wpopen(filespec);
...

wpclose();

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Text Formatting Functions wpadd()
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Function.................. wpadd()

Description............... Appends the text string specified in
to the document.

Arguments................. =text string

Return.................... Nothing

Comments/Example.......... This routine appends the text string into the
opened WPC document. This string can be a field
from a database - however it must be in character
format.

Clipper Example:

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51"

If wpopen (filespec)
?"Successfully created and opened document"
*-- Adds some text to the document --*
wpadd("Please tell your friends ")
wpadd("that they should buy this product!")
...
wpclose()
Else
?"Unsuccessful"
Endif


C Example:

int fspecsiz,bold,italic;
fspecsiz=25;
char filespec[fspecsiz+1];

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51";

wpopen(filespec);
/* Adds some text to the document */;
wpadd("Please tell your developer friends ");
wpadd("that they should buy this product!");
...
wpclose();



----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Text Formatting Functions wpcntr()
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Function.................. wpcntr()

Description............... Centers the next text string specified to the
document.

Arguments................. None

Return.................... Nothing

Comments/Example.......... This routine centers the next text string into
the opened WPC document.


Clipper Example:

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51"

If wpopen (filespec)
?"Successfully created and opened document"
*Adds some centered text to the document*
wphrtn(1)
wpcntr()
wpadd("Centering this text")
wphrtn()
...
wpclose()
Else
?"Unsuccessful"
Endif

C Example:

int fspecsiz,bold,italic;
fspecsiz=25;

char filespec[fspecsiz+1];

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51";

/* Adds some centered text to the document */;
wphrtn(1);
wpcntr();
wpadd("Centering this text");
wphrtn(1);
...
wpclose();


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Text Formatting Functions wphrtn()
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Function.................. wphrtn()

Description............... Appends a WPC Hard Return into the document
the number of times that is specified by
.

Arguments................. =the number of times to insert a hard
return

Return.................... Nothing

Comments/Example.......... This routine appends the WPC compatable hard
return code into the document that was created
and opened using the wpopen() function.


Clipper Example:

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51"

If wpopen (filespec)
?"Successfully created and opened document"
*-Add 2 hard returns to the document-*
wphrtn(2)
...
wpclose()
Else
?"Unsuccessful"
Endif


C Example:

int fspecsiz;
fspecsiz=25;
char filespec[fspecsiz+1];

filespec = "C:\WP51\DOCS\DOC00001.W51";

wpopen(filespec);
