All good things (must) come to an end - NAV 2013 and NAV 2013 R2.

Hi Readers, Yes, it's true and I feel what the title says "all good things (must) come to an end". I still remember the good days when NAV 2013 & R2 was released and how happy we were. These two versions played a major role in the Product Future and also the existence of Product. If you were there with NAV at that time, market rumors were that its time to end NAV as it way behind in terms of technology.

How To Report SaveAsHTML Pre NAV 2017.

Hi Readers, Origin of the today's post is a requirement to Save as Report as HTML in NAV 2016. This also brings some learnings for me so thought to share with you all. Till NAV 2009 (if I remember it correctly) Report.SaveAsHTML was supported but due to design changes in NAV Microsoft decided to obsolete this feature after NAV 2009. But later in NAV 2017, microsoft felt a need to the function and it came back in existence. But due to this confusion, I have provided a bad estimate and end-up spending good amount of time to translate a report (in my case word layout) to an HTML file. In this article, we will see how we can transform a word file to an HTML File using DOTNET Components.
