Can a today's date be added in a date field when the submit button is pressed?

I created a form with a submit button and the form is sent via email.  Can the date when the form is submitted show up in a date field with the button is pressed?
Any help with this is much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
there is a preSubmit event for form objects you can use.
Select your date field, open the script editor and add this script (language is FormCalc) into the preSubmit event.
$ = num2date(date(), "MM/DD/YYYY")

  • Inserting data in a table when the save button is pressed

    Hello all,
    I have a form displaying all fields in a table. it contains an adjustment column which is null by default and also an adjustment flag which is set to NO by default
    Now when the form is executed the user is able to add a value in that adjustment column and this value is stored in another table order_adjustment. Entries should be made in the adjustment table only when there is a change in the adjustment column and only for that value that was modified
    create table order_adjustement
      adjustment_id number,
      oe_line_id number,
      adjustment_cnt number,
      created_by varchar2(100),
      created_date date,
      modified_by varchar2(100),
      modified_date date
    )i have created a procedure in my form to insert my adjustment value
    PROCEDURE p_adjustment IS
    BEGIN
      insert into order_adjustement
        adjustment_id     ,
        oe_line_id        ,
        adjustment_cnt    ,
        created_by        ,
        created_date     
      values
        order_adjustment_seq.nextval,
        :oe_lines.oe_line_id,
        :oe_lines.adjusted_cnt,
        user,
        sysdate
    END;i have used the trigger when new item instance on that adjustment field but the problem is that its not saving the value i am passing through it the first time but if i modify those same values then those values are recorded in the table.

    for eg
    for order 1 initially its adjustment_cnt is null
    if i insert 1 then save, it saves the null value but if i change the 1 to 10 then it records 1, if i change the 10 to 20, it records 10.If you are calling that procedure in PRE-UPDATE then it should not happen like this. It should insert always the recent updated value.
    It seems as if it keeps those values in a buffer.No nothing called buffer while updating and saving records in forms. Because you are using the field like :my_field_name so it should always give the current value which is in the item.
    i have tried calling that trigger at block level but still doesnt workWhat did you try? And in which trigger did you try?

    Hi Anubha,

    I tried sending myself a pdf document with comments from one email account and I sent it to another email account. I still get the same problem. I basically receive a pdf document with no comments.
    Am I doing something wrong?

  • Is it possible to save a data portion starting from when a "save" button is pressed?

    Hi,
    The below attached vi acquires data from a sensor. The sensor signal output can be reset to zero and the data saved into a file. However, the saved data comprises the data portion starting from when the vi starts running until the "stop" button is pressed. Is it possible to save the data portion starting from when the "save" button until the "stop" button are pressed?
    Best regards,

  • How can I automatically close a dialog box using Javascript after I click the OK button to submit it?

    How can I automatically close a dialog box using Javascript after I click the OK button to submit it? I don't want to have to X out of the dialog box after I am done.
    Thanks
    Linda

    JS can not interact with open dialogs in any way, unless it's a dialog
    created in JS using the Dialog object.

  • How can I set the submit button to email only certain pages of the pdf not the entire pdf?

    We have a pdf that is a hundred pages or so where each page is an individual product that the customer can select for purchase. At the end of the pdf is an order form. We want to be able to email just the few pages which are the form as a pdf. The default function of the submit button is to email back the entire pdf. As there any way to just select whcih pages would be submitted?

    The problem is for people not using an email client like Outlook. In the version of Reader my boss was using, you had to save the FDF file to your hard disk and then open your browser to go to your web based email and write an email and attach the file. In the newest version of Reader it will open a browser window and create a draft for you, but he thought it was to much work if people were using older versions of Reader. He was really looking for something straightforward where all they had to do is push a button and it was submitted.

  • Can't get the Submit button to work on Acrobat X

    I was having this problem on Acrobat 9 and so I bit the bullet and upgraded, hoping the problem would go away, but it did not.
    I have a simple form for an event which recipients will fill out and submit, emailing the entirePDF to others (not to me)
    I've done these forms a zillion times, no problemo, but this is the first time I've tried since upgrading from Entourage email to Outlook, and I have a sneaking suspicion the problem lies there somehow.
    Can install the button, all fine, but when I click it to test, I get this message:
    "An error occured while trying to create a mail document. Acrobat is unable to complete your request."
    Anybody know what I can do to fix this?
    signed,
    Desperate

    I gave up on the 'Submit' button long ago, as have others, I suspect.
    It fails in about half of the cases.
    Now I place a note at the top of the form instructing users how to manually attach the form to an email in case the button doesn't work – it's ridiculous. Thinking about it, it would be more clean-cut to get rid of the button alltogether.
    I also keep getting requests to provide forms as Word documents instead. Apparently people are way more comfortable with Word than willing to deal with idiosyncrasies in PDFs.

  • I am trying to delete duplicate content in my iTunes library. I have stopped the download and I can see them on VIEW Displaying Duplicates, but cannot delete them with the Delete button. Can anyone assist?

    I am trying to delete duplicate content in my iTunes library. I have stopped the download and I can see them on VIEW>Displaying Duplicates, but cannot delete them with the Delete button. Can anyone assist?

    If you've paused the download (they are partially greyed out on the duplicates screen ?) then you will need to delete them from download window, you can't (as far as I know) delete partially downloaded items from that screen. When you have items downloading, or downloads that are paused, you should have a downward pointing arrow at the top right of the iTunes screen
    If you click that arrow you should get a popup window with the items that are downloading/paused - and you should be able to select and delete them (or resume their download) from there.

  • Can the submit button be deleted

    For the convenience of our learners, my manager would like me
    to delete the submit button from the multiple choice questions we
    are using in our movie. He would Captivate to provide feedback
    immediately after the learner clicks his/her answer in the radio
    button. Is this possible?
    Note that I have tried making the submit button transparent
    and placing it behind the radio buttons for all answer options.
    When this is done and an attempt is made to click a radio button,
    the radio buttons are unavailable and a failure message appears.
    Apparently, the submit button is over the radio buttons or at least
    not transparent so that they can be affected.

    Rick:
    One more thought about eliminating the Submit button on
    multiple-choice questions.
    I now know that:
    1. I cannot delete the Submit button from a
    Captivate-generated multiple-choice question
    2. The function that the Submit button performs must be
    retained in multiple-choice questions to enable the scoring
    function, which I want to retain.
    3. Although I can make the Submit button transparent and put
    it in the same location as the answer options' radio buttons to try
    to make the learner's one click (that selects the answer option)
    activate both the radio button and the Submit button, the result of
    the click will be only clicking the Submit button. The radio button
    does not get marked as being selected.
    I would like to do some further work on trying to allow the
    learner to select his/her answer and click the Submit button on one
    click.
    On the theory that the radio button and the Submit button
    cannot be selected in one click because the is because the Submit
    button is in front of the radio button, I wonder if it might be
    worth it to try to go into the files that support the building of
    multiple-choice questions and attempt to change the layering order
    so that the radio buttons are in front of the Submit button? Do you
    think can be done? Do you think it might work? Thanks for any
    insights you might have on this idea.

  • My eBay pages don't work properly. There are parts missing. The symbols on the My eBay page have gone. The £ paid sign, checkout, feedback, and probably more. I can't list an item as the submit button has disappeared. It all works fine on IE.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
