Modify content of Word Doc in file cabinet
When loading a file from the cabinet that is of type 'WORD', is there a way to modify the content through suitescript?
I want to do this:
var fileId = 567; var file = nlapiLoadFile(fileId); file.getType(); // this is 'WORD' var content = file.getValue(); content = replaceString(content,someNewContent);
I have a function that replaces regex matches with new content but the .doc content comes back as gobbledygook with getValue();
Anyone know a work around?
