Word 2007 Add-in

Word 2007 Add-in

A perennial problem in document management is that you create or edit content using a tool such as Microsoft Office Word and then you have to remember to put the results into the document repository.

One way to solve this is to have a handy sidebar available to you when you are using Word that will allow you to:

• Browse the CogniDox repository category structure as a hierarchical tree from a Word 2007 sidebar
• Fast and accurate search on all content within CogniDox (using Lucene/Solr search engine)
• Open files directly into Word for editing, then save back as new draft or new issue
• Create new files from document templates held in CogniDox
• Save new Word documents under a new part number as a draft or issue in CogniDox
• Compare two or more versions of a Word document stored in CogniDox; and highlight changes using Word change tracking and/or review panes

This is done using the CogniDox Add-in for Microsoft Office Word 2007, available in CogniDox 8.1.

The CogniDox Word Add-in is compatible with Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 operating systems. It is not available for earlier versions of Word (e.g. Word 2003, Word XP) due to architectural changes made for Office 2007.
