Hello Elly,

The WordTextArea Control is avialble in Pega 7 but it is not working. Because this control is using ActiveX based code and Pega 7 is not support the ActiveX controls word  generation. 

Did you implemented WordTextArea in pega 7?

Thanks,

Sreeni

Hello

Which version of Pega 7 are you using?  Take a look at this PDN article for v7.1.9 https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/help_v719/procomhelpmain.htm

If you take a look at the Internal Notes this may help you:

Internal notes

This feature requires the prVisioInterface ActiveX control and Word macros contained in the template WordMacroManagerDot.Dot template file. Both files have certificates digitally signed by Pegasystems. See  Configuring Microsoft Word for inline display or editing. Operation of the ActiveX control and macros is automatic and requires no user interaction.

Which part of the LSA course is this question relating to?

Kind Regards

Elly
