    In-Table List With Alternate Content in Presentation Document

    Note
    In this article, we will use GroupDocs.Assembly to generate a In-Table List With Alternate Content report in Presentation Document format based on the use case: Working with a Business Case.

    In-Table List With Alternate Content in Microsoft PowerPoint Document

    Creating a In-Table List With Alternate Content

    Practicing the following steps you can create In-Table List With Alternate Content Template in MS PowerPoint 2013.

    1. Add a new presentation slide.
    2. Press “Insert” tab to insert the table.
    3. Insert a 2X3 table.
    4. Save the template.

    Reporting Requirement

    As a report developer, you are required to represent your products and their prices with the following key requirements:

    • Report must show each product along with its price.
    • It must show sum of all the prices.
    • It must represent all the information in tabular form.
    • Report must be generated in the Presentation Document.

    Adding Syntax to be evaluated by GroupDocs.Assembly Engine

    Products

    Order Price

    <<if [!Any()]>>No data

    <<else>><<foreach [in orders]>><<[Product.ProductName]>>

    <<[Price]>><</foreach>>

    Total:

    <<[Sum(c => c.Price)]>><</if>>

    In-Table List With Alternate Content in OpenOffice Presentation Document

    Creating the Template

    OpenDocument Presentation (ODP) is a presentation document format which can be used as an alternative to Microsoft PowerPoint Document (PPT/PPTX) formats. Since ODP is not a Microsoft Proprietary format, there are multiple software (including Microsoft Office and Apache OpenOffice) available to create, open, edit and save this format. For more information on the available software to work with ODP, please visit Wikipedia article.

    In this topic, we ’ll not reinvent the wheel to recreate a template for generating an ‘In-Table List With Alternate Content’ report in ODP format. Instead, we’ll save the existing template to ODP format using Microsoft Office. In order to achieve this; assuming you are using Microsoft Office 2010, please follow below steps:

    1. Open existing template we created in previous topic.
    2. Click “File” and select “Save As”.
    3. Select “OpenDocument Presentation” from “Save As Type” drop down.
    4. Click “Save”.

    ODP Template and Report in Apache OpenOffice

    In order to check compatibility of ODP between Microsoft Office 2010 and Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2, we performed below tests:

    • We opened the ODP template created through Microsoft Office 2010 in Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2. The template opened successfully in Apache OpenOffice without any issues or formatting losses.
    • We opened the ODP report generated through GroupDocs.Assembly in Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2. The report opened successfully in Apache OpenOffice without any issues or formatting losses.
