Adobe: ActiveX vs Native in web dynpro

Hello,
has there recently (the last week or so) been an update on Adobe Reader or windows xp that makes the adobe forms not work anymore with web dynpro?
Last week i had a simple form (activeX) in my web dynpro that was working fine. The form had two buttons (activeX), and on clicking the button they set a context attribute to BUTTONONE or BUTTONTWO and then they fire the webdynpro event; In my web dynpro i then check if the context attribute is BUTTONONE or BUTTONTWO and take an action depending on the button clicked. This was working fine, but now it doesnt work anymore.
When i change the buttons to native buttons and change the uielement of adobe to native in my developer studio, it is working again..
Why doesnt the activeX work anymore? The activeX buttons dont even fire an event in my webdynpro. All is configured correctly, because it worked before.
Another thing that doesnt work is the following. Binding the adobe form to the context and then an inputvalue on the form. Setting the value in webdynpro passes the value to the form, but changing the value in theform, doesnt pass the value to web dynpro, so webdynpro still has it's old value in the context.
I hope someone knows why simple things are not working.
Kind regards,
J.

Hi Joren,
Usually this is due to missing or something wrong with the ACF. I suggest to first check in your Windows Control Panel to see if the ACF is installed. If it is there but somehow still doesn't work, try to uninstall it and install the ACF again (make sure to install the ACF which is for your NW release and SP, refer to note 766191 for detail).
BTW, native forms should be the way going forward to. Perhaps you should actually stay with native forms unless you have special reasons to use activex forms.
Regards,
Marc

    Hello,
    See Note: https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1312542
    Flex SDK 3.4 and higher is not supported as documented.
    You should use Flex SDK 3.3 to build Web dynpro FlashIslands.
    Hope this helps!

  • Context not updated from adobe from fields to ABAP web dynpro every time

    Hi,
    I work through a turtorial for interactive adobe form in web dynpro. The turtorial link is as following:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3?prtmode=navigate
    I use Active X adobe form display type and submit button. Basically, it works.
    My problem is the 1st time I change the out_amount in adobe form and click 'Submit'. Everything OK. The corresponding context field in Web Dynpro is updated and showed in my own web dynpro field.
    Then, I change the out_amount again in Adobe form and click 'Submit' again. The context is not updated.
    The interesting thing is when I click 'Submit' the 3rd time, it works again. Same situation happens for 4 and 5 times click 'Submit' and so on.
    It seems I need to click 'Submit' two times and the web dynpro context is then  updated.
    Is there anyone have any clue about my problem?
    Thank you in advance!
    Trey

    Please provide the solution.......

  • Saving adobe forms in DMS through web dynpro application

    Hi all,
            I have a requirement in web dynpro where the user enters few data and clicks a generate button. On click of this button i have to generate pdf forms and save it in DMS. I have already designed the adobe form, but i do not know how to save it in DMS. So, please let me know asap how this can be done.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Vinod

    Hi,
    You will have to use the function module BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKIN_REPLACE2.
    First save the PDF file on application server.
    Then use above function module.

  • Adobe form data not being retrieved by Web Dynpro application

    Hi,
    I have created an online interactive Adobe form embedded in a Web Dynpro ABAP application.  The Web Dynpro application calls a function module to update data in SAP.  My problem is that the ABAP code that was generated to retrieve the data from the Adobe form and call the function module does not retrieve the data if it has been typed into any of the input fields.  Oddly enough, it does work if the data is entered by using the value helps that have been placed on the form. 
    I would appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks!
    Russell

    Use messageboxes on various events to find out when your value dissapeears.
    If you´re not sure about the binding, you can always drag/drop from data view tab onto the layout and check the binding which the system generates for you. Just to make sure.

  • Interactive Form within Web Dynpro ABAP

    Hi,
    I've an Adobe interactive form element within Web Dynpro ABAP view. I've more than one WebDynproActiveX buttons within the Interactive form (like Submit, Cancel, Clear).
    How can I differentiate the user selection within Webdynpro  ? Whether the user selected Submit or Cancel or Clear ? Can we associate any function code for each button ?
    Thanks
    Ravikumar

    Hi Ravi,
    You can take a context attribute lets say "STATUS"(string) in your form context.  For your buttons in the form, in click event set the value. like
    STATUS.rawValue = "1";      (eg Submit)
    STATUS.rawValue = "2";      (eg Cancel)
    And in your submit event read this context attribute and you can use CASE like when 1 , when 2 etc and you can execute your code accordingly.
    it should solve your problem.
    With Regards,
    Ravi.D
