I am new to android programming, so i have a question regarding how to open any document such as .doc, .docx, .ppt, etc. in android. I also need to implement preview functionality, wherein the file should be downloaded temporarily and user can see the file opened just by a single click. How does dropbox does this? Is there any intents available? Can anybody help me out of this issue by some example or code?

I am probably doing something wrong here but I have Documents to go (free) and I can not view word documents sent to my work e-mail. I keep getting the message that it can not open it because it is a plain text file.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for an office suite app for android tablet that lets you open multiple documents at once, with tabs, so that I can switch between them.
I thought Kingsoft Office is supposed to do that because I read a review from PCWorld, and it said just like desktop version, it can switch between open documents with tabs. I think the review is false. I have been trying to figure out how to open multiple documents with Kingsoft for HOURS, and can't figure out. I have a Galaxy tab 10.1 original with ICS.
So if I'm correct and Kingsoft does not have this feature, any office suite app that lets you open multiple docs at once? Doesn't have to be free. I just need a decent one that have this feature. I only need it for viewing docs anyway.
Does anyone know of any app that would allow me to sign documents?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a situation where I allow the user to email a number of documents from my app. The problem is that one request may result in the sending of 3 or 4 emails. Ideally I would like to get all the SEND info at the beginning and at a minimum populate all the fields so that all the user has to do is hit SEND for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc email. All is fine except that the email client seems to accept the email address only when typed in manually: Below is a snippet of my email routine:
private boolean emailInfo(File filename, String subject, String body) { Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TITLE, "Extra Title"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, "theem...@comcast.net"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "body"); sendIntent.setType("text/csv"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(filename)); sendIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION); //startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Select Mail Client"),101); startActivityForResult(sendIntent,101); return true; }
The email address that I pass via: sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, "theem...@comcast.net"); is always ignored and so it has to be manually entered on each email.
Today you can get "Documents to go" for $5.55 (Normally $29.95) but I am not really sure what I would gain over the included Quickoffice ap. I could be wrong but I believe quick office is read only while documents to go allows editing.Anyone else know the difference?
Ignoring price, what one is better functionality wise? Quickoffice came preinstalled on my Dinc, don't know if thats a gimped version or not.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have quite few books in .doc formats. All the ebook readers for android. I found don't really support .doc. The most of them don't support anything other than this new for me "epub" format. Now I can open the .docs, but would like to read them in a convenient way with the options and extras of an ebook reader software. I found something about online converter from .doc to epub, but would like to have my books accessible without pre-converting.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was going to hold out for DTG 3.0 but think that I really need this program. Also, I just read on DTG's site that the upgrade to 3.0 will be free. The unknown is when and if 3.0 will ever come out. Anyways, being not too familiar with DTG I have a few questions:
1.How do I get documents to and from my PC? Do I have to email back and forth? If I create a document on my PC and want to take it on the road to edit it how do I get it to my Droid Incredible for editing and then back to my desktop for printing, ect?
2.I use MS Office 2007 on my PC will this work with DTG?
3.What are some overall impressions of how this app actually works?
On my droid x quik office works great to automatically open word and pdf docs. The issue I am having is that once I have downloaded a document I have no way to save it and i can't find it later. I can't find the saved documents or the quick office application anywhere on my phone.

I was curious if it was possible to write documents/scripts and upload them onto my website straight from my phone.
I essentially want a phone that could best emulate my linux (text-editing and ftp. Even better it has a terminal/Command-line feature), or a phone useful for web-developers. Would the Android be able to do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a ListActivity that uses a CursorAdapter to fill the rows in the view. I wrote a database helper class that gives me back results for common queries I make for my app, and it uses an SQLiteOpenHelper implementation I wrote to open the database. I use the open helper to open the database and get a cursor to pass to my CursorAdapter.
Here's a code snippet:
CODE:...................
The problem I'm having, that I didn't have before I implemented the open helper (before I just opened the database directly without a helper), is when I click on an item, which takes me to another activity, and then go back to this activity. When it initializes everything is fine, and my list is populated fine, but when I go back from the activity that follows, the list is empty and in the LogCat I see "Invalid statement in fillWindow()".
It appears from a few post I've seen that the reason is, when I requery the cursor, the database is closed. But I'm not closing it! I'm scratching my head on this one.
I'm considering switching to an Android device after using Windows Mobile for years and years... the new Droid from Verizon really looks impressive and I'm not real high on some of the new Windows Mobile devices coming out.One of my needs though will be to read, edit, and save 2007 Office documents. However, I'd also like to have my documents auotsync'd with Google Docs. Is something like this possible?
