Knowledge Library Link tab - Section dialog
Use this command to modify a link that updates the active document from your organization’s knowledge library. To create a new link, access the Insert tab and click New Link.
Identification
The filename of the Knowledge Library document and the Section Label are needed. They are taken as a calculation to permit increased flexibility and automation.
Knowledge Library File name
Type or select the Knowledge Library document you want to insert. Click Browse to locate the file manually.
Two functions can be useful for specifying file names when creating templates with Knowledge Library links. If you want to place the Knowledge Library document in the library directory you can refer to it by the calculation: prgdir()+"library\filename.cvw". This will eliminate the need to hardcode an absolute path that would require modification if the destination document is moved to another system. Similarly, CLNTDIR() retrieves the path to the client directory.
Section Label
Select the name of the section you want to insert.

Note: This feature does not prevent users from deleting the content by other means, such as selecting the section and cutting or deleting it from the document manually. Permissions can be used to prevent deletion of sections yet allow for inserting of Knowledge Library links.
