Binging your videos right now. Great stuff! Have you found a way to generate “generic tables” from the model directly into a word template? I have found the VTL language doesn’t make tables easy other than basic tables similar to your last example. If I pull a table as a diagram, it comes out as an image which isn’t useful. If I code it to use if statements for filtering, I get blank rows…. Any insight would be great! Thanks again for these videos!
Glad you are enjoying the videos. One potential solution which avoids VTL would be creating an excel output of the complex generic table from Cameo and then embedding that excel document within a word document. Then you could keep pushing from Cameo to Excel and that would automatically update the Word. I do realize this adds another document which may not be ideal in your situation. If you cannot have an excel output file then you may be forced to create a custom VTL script like shown in the video.
Great introductory video :) Looking forward to the next on development of the actual template
more to come!

@@CameoMagic great solution, I will try this out and see if the flow works well. Thanks!
