I am about to develop a MS Power Automate flow for a shared Glossary (in MS OneNote). For this, all details shall be provided via an MS Forms document to be filled out. The data that was entered in the MS Forms document shall then issue a new page in a specific section (i.e. if i want to define "Glossary" it shall move to section "G"). Any solution to this?
Secondly, i would like to bring the MS Forms data in an standardized format (in a table) to the OneNote Page.
Your help is very much appreciated!
Tried to insert the table in the MS Power Automate flow, not possible
Tried to mention the First letter as an page title, not possible

When I tried to find the dynamic content in Power Automate for the fields from Microsoft Form which I designed previously, I couldn't find any of them except the names of the "sections" (from Microsoft Form) which are used to group the fields. Everything works well when I remove those "sections". Is there any solution or workaround?

Thanks for the suggestion!

Microsoft Teams
Scenario:
Within Teams we have a team with a tab that contains a spreadsheet. Users can enter information w/ a new number and the name of the person responsible etc.
Is it possible that when this item is entered that an email can automatically be sent to the person responsible from within Teams?
I have done some initial research and so far I do see where you can create apps BUT I just would like to know if what I am proposing is possible and if so would it be a monumental undertaking or shouldn't be too difficult.
Any thoughts/feedback appreciated,
Thank you
There are actually two problems to solve here. One, how to detect that something happened in Excel. Two, to take action on that event and send email.
For both of these, you can create Excel macros using VBA (transforming the file from xlsx to xslm). XSLM files require the full Excel client though and don't run well on the web version of Excel. I can't think of another way to do it using Excel.
I'm looking for some high-level help with determining the best type of Visual Studio 2010 project to use for an Excel custom application.
I will be developing a program that requires the user to enter a dataset in a particular way. Not using a form per se, but rather in columns and the program will need to do some custom validation on the items in order to prep the data. From there, the user will be able to conduct various operations on the data via a custom Ribbon and associated options. The program will also transmit the data via web service.
I've fooled around with the Add-In project and that gives me a lot of what I need but I'm wondering if a Template or Workbook project is better for this in terms of data entry and being able to "guide" the user a little more.
How do you go about choosing between which project type to use? Do all the project types support a custom Ribbon?
Sorry if this is too far off topic. I'm referring to VBA, not Visual Studio, but it might still be relevant.
With an AddIn, compared to a Workbook, you can separate your code from the user's data. So, if the code is complex, and you'll need to update it separately from user's workbooks with data, this is not a bad idea.
With an AddIn, you can add buttons that do things like check to make sure the user data workbook is ok, or process it in someway. However, the AddIn custom buttons will load ever time a user opens any Excel worksheet. This doesn't sound good, but in practice, isn't so bad. You can code your AddIn so it does nothing as long as no one uses a button, so it almost doesn't hurt load times, etc...
A Workbook might be useful if you need to really guide the user - that is, you cannot rely on the user to hit a button to verify something, and instead you need to verify on every change, for example. However, the workbook solution incorporates the user data and your code in the same workbook, so if you need to update the code for existing users' data, that's harder.
I use a combination of AddIn (.xlam) with buttons, and a template (with minimal self-describing data only).
I'm not sure about the template-only option, so won't comment on that.
I have set up a reporting tool using sql server 2008 R2 with a single report containing 4 datasets on a single page. Each dataset is basically a table and a chart. I would like to have it set up in such a way as to have two datasets on one page of the report and the others on the next page.
Is there anyway to format the layout of a single report or would I have to design a second report and call that from the first somehow and if so how do I do that?
These reports will be later binded to a web application using the reportviewer but not sure if this is possible with visual studio 2010.
Add a page break. You'll maybe need to add an extra rectangle per page to hold the table and chart controls for that page (been some time since I designed a report, sorry)
I've recently customized the lookup functionality of MS CRM 4.0 to filter a contact list to only those contacts owned by a client using techniques similar to the one presented here:
http://advantageworks.blogspot.com/2008/02/pseudo-filtered-lookup-dialog-in.html
My question is, can I apply the same type of logic to the Form Assistant pane within the window? I've currently disabled the form assistant to prevent confusion, but I'd very much like to filter those contacts as well. I like the inline AJAX presentation of that data more than the lookup pop-up window, but I can't find any information on how that thing is working.
Anyone out there done this before?
Thanks in advance!
Bob
As far as I can tell from the research I've done - customization of the Form Assistant pane in MS CRM 4.0 in this manner simply is not possible. In those cases where we required this customization we opted to hide the Form Assistant to prevent end-user confusion.
