Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I make documentation using the command line application?

Run the application BIDOC.exe which is located in the BI Documenter application directory from a command window to as a scheduled task. 

Each time you run the command line application BIDOC.exe a new snapshot is created and given an automatically incremented name e.g. Solution Name 4. The documentation is then created from that new snapshot as either a CHM or HTML files depending on which argument you gave when running the application.

Usage: BIDOC [solution name] [output type] [output location]

  • Example 1: BIDOC "Adventure Works" chm c:\tmp\AdventWorks.chm
  • Example 2: BIDOC "Adventure Works" html c:\tmp\htmlfolder
