How do you add a button that will email the PDF its on?

I need to create a form but they want it to have a button that will open up an email to send that PDF as an attachment or something along those lines.  Is that possible?

Just a bit more info. E-mail can be used, but has potential problems -- often related to the client machine that you have no control over. Use the data submissions (either FDF or XML) rather than the full PDF so you do not have to deal with Reader Rights and the related license issues. The FDF and XML data files are easily imported into the original form so that you see what the client sees. With those aspects in mind, just go ahead and try one. Be aware that you can add form fields using the form tools in the Advanced Editing tools, OR use the forms menu that will take you to Designer. You might want to try both to see the pros and cons. Be sure to keep such a test simple so you are not wasting time on your final form just for testing. I typically create a 1 page form that has all of the possible fields for such a test.

  • If i have a form with check boxes. Can I add a button that will display the boxes that the user selected on a new page?

    For example, there are 10 check boxes and the user selects 5 of those boxes. Then they click a submit button. Just the information from those boxes would be displayed so they can print it. Is this possible? Any help pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.

    That is definitely possible.
    Option 1: checkboxes are all named differently.
    In the click event for the submit button, add some code like this...
    if (cbChoice1 == "1") p2.tfChoice1.presence = "visible";
    else p2.tfChoice1.presence = "hidden"; //can use "invisible" if preferred
    if (cbChoice2 == "1")...
    Option 2: checkboxes are named the same
    In the click event for the submit button, add code like this...
    var checkboxes = xfa.resolveNodes("cbChoice[*]");
    var textfields = xfa.resolveNodes("p2.tfChoice[*]");
    for (i=0; i<checkboxes.length; i++){
        if( checkboxes.item(i).rawValue == "1") textfields.item(i).presence = "visible";
        else textfields.item(i).presence = "hidden";

  • How can I make a button that on press the object appears and on second press the object to disappear

    Hello,
    I'm quite new to flash programing, and I don't know how can I make a button that will make the object appear and disappear.Till now I have this code for the appear:
    on (press)
        _root.top1.gotoAndStop(2);
        _root.topp.gotoAndStop(2);
        _root.mm1.gotoAndStop(2);
              _root.m1.gotoAndStop(2);
    but from here I'm stuck.
    Thank you for your help

    What you can do is use the _visible property of the object to make it appear and disappear, or more correctly, use the opoosite of the _visible property.  You should not put code "on" objects, keep it in the timeline.
    If "object" is the instance name of the object you want to toggle, then in the timeline code you can use...
    object._visible = false;  // start with the object being invisible
    yourButtonName.onRelease = function(){
        object._visible = !object._visible;
    That one line in the function sets the object's _visible property to be the opposite of what it currently is.

  • Does anyone know of a VI or how to go about writing one that will prevent the computers time/date from being disabled while an application is running.

    Does anyone know of a VI or how to go about writing one that will prevent the computers clock/time from being disabled while an application is running. The time and date can normally be reset while an application is running by clicking on the time/date in the lower right-hand corner of the computer screen. I have an application that runs over several days and it is critical that the time and date of the computer not be changed. Is there an easy way to lock this out from the user? Note that I am what I consider an advanced beginner in LV.
    Thank you,
    Chuck
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That is not something you can do from LabVIEW, as it is an operating system operation, and it will depend on the operating system that you're using. On Windows you can use a group policy to control this. Please Google on "prevent time and date change in windows".
    Also, please try to refrain from stuffing your entire message in the subject block. Keep the subject short, but descriptive enough so it can be understood what you are basically asking. Thanks.

  • Can you create a button that will go to multiple key frames?

    Hi, I am trying to make a rpg style character select interface.  What i am trying to do is very similar to the picture below. How do you create a button like the stats, gear, and supplies that will each show a different image or text depending on which character you choose. If noone have played this marvel facebook game before, if you choose for instance Ironman, then the buttons on the right change to stats, bio, and gear. Each character will show a different bio when the bio button is clicked. Do i create a different screen for each character with the same button layout in the same place? I think i just answered my own question but i want to make sure that is possible. Should each character portrait, stats, bio, and gear be on its own layer and have the buttons go to those specific keyframes? thanks

    While you could create a different screen for each, a better way to do this is via some form of database.  The buttons cause functions to be executed and the functions utilize data resources based on the selections that are established.
    So if you pick a particular character, a variable is a assigned a value that indicates that.  That variable is then utilized to extract the data associated with the character and to build the screen elements related to the options for that character.

  • How can I creat a control button that will allow the vi to run?

    Instead of pressing the run button, I want to creat my own run button that will allow my vi to run.
    Any idea?
    Thank you

    First you need to set the VI to Run When Opened (VI Properties>Execution). Then you create a front panel Boolean. On the diagram what you need to do is have some sort of idle state where nothing is done until the Boolean is pressed. It could be a separate while loop that doesn't exit until the Boolean is pressed, an Event Structure, or as part of a state machine. Look at the shippings examples Queued Message Handler, New Event Handler, Using Buttons for Options to name just a few.

  • How do I add text message to this email with PDF attachment?

    Good day, everyone!
    Okay, we have a "z"-version of program RFFOUS_T and some of its include codes.  One include code, RFFORIO6, has a form called MAIL_PDF_ADVICE.  It is in this form that we are emailing a remittance advice form.  The actual form is attached as a PDF file.
    Unfortunately, there's no text in the body of the email -- it's just the attachment -- so the users would like us to add a couple basic lines in the body of the email that explain the attachment.  I'm pretty new to using this particular FM and emailing the PDF attachment, and I've gotten stuck in my research trying to find out exactly how to do this.  I'm guessing this shouldn't be all that difficult, but I'm not finding the right solution.  Here's the form:
