Completing the same form for additional products

We are collecting data from manufacturers as to the products being displayed on their exhibition stands. In order for the data to be collected for each product, so it is listed on a seperate line in an excel spreadsheet I have put together the questions for each product on one form. The manufacturer then needs to complete the form for each product displayed, which could be 30 - 40 items. Is there a way to ask them if they wish to enter another product and if they answer yes they are given the form again to complete but without having to add their company and email address again? In effect I want the company and email address to appear automatically on all forms completed after their initial entry or any additional forms after their first entry to link to the first one so we know who it has come from and the entries are linked when exporting to excel. I also have the same issue with another form where we are asking delegates to book to attend an event and the same person is booking for 4 or 5 different delegates from the same company. It would be easier if they did not have to re-enter their company details each time.
I hope this makes sense.

Forms cannot be "connected", data cannot be filled in from another form. You can build a more complex product ordering form with "Show/Hide" logic that will show another set of form fields based on a response, but data is not populated from one field to another or one form to another.

Can you use the same form for different datasheets?

Hello! Thanks in advance for your time.
To keep this short, I have created a form at my place of work to do a type of process audit. The form has worked extremely well and now other areas of the business would like to use it. For example, let's say I wanted to perform the exact same process audit
at a supplier, but I want a separate datasheet on my SharePoint page to separate in house audits from supplier audits. The form I created for in house audits took an extremely long time and has tons and tons of fields and tons and tons of rules.
Can I simply save the form to a new location, and somehow publish the form to a datasheet view so all fields from the form appear as columns and the form submits data to the new datasheet? If so, can somebody explain how? I would be eternally greatful!

Would this be an InfoPath form?
One option would be to extend your current form to have a 'Type' field that has 'Internal' and 'Supplier' as choices. You could then create views to show 'All', 'Supplier only' and 'Internal only' subsets of the data.
Alternatively you may be able to save the list as a template and then re-use it but I can't remember how well if at all that works.

How to use same form for Editing info and creating info.

Hi all,
Here my aim is to select the user from list and edit the user info. There is one more option to create the new user.
Currently I am using two separate input forms one for Editing and one more creating new user.
Can anyone tel me, how to use the same form for both editing and creating.
Thanks,
Ramesh Biradar

Hi Ramesh,
I'll make some assumptions about how you're going about this, and then give you a possible solution:
I assume that you have a table with selection on one page. To edit an item, you wish to select it's radio button and click an edit button to take you to another page with the item filled in to edit it. To create a new item, you'd like to click a "new" button and go to the same page.
If this is correct, here's the basic steps:
1). Assuming you have both the list and edit pages already created, make sure you have a JSF navigation case defined going from the list page to the edit page. I'll call this navigation case "goToEditPage" for this discussion.
2). To make the edit button, drag a command button from the component palette and drop it on the af:TableSelectOne (the column in your table containing the radio buttons for selection).
3). Set the action property on this command button to "goToEditPage".
4). Now, to make the create button, drag a command button from the component palette somewhere on the page. I like to put mine in a panelButtonBar inside the actions facet of an af:Page component.
5). Now, for the Action property of this command button, bind it to a method in your page's backing bean. The code will look something like this:
public String performNew()
    BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
    OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("Create");
    Object result = operationBinding.execute();
    if (!operationBinding.getErrors().isEmpty())
      return null;
    return "goToEditPage";
}Hope this is helpful, Ramesh.

If a form is distributed multiple times does it count as the same form?

We are considering purchasing Froms Central to handle our post-conference participant questionnaires but have a query regarding the forms. If we use the same form for each of our 12 conferences per year, will this count as one form or 12?

If its the same form file being used then its just one form. If you made 12 copies of the form (one for each conference) then it would be 12.

In addition to the FormsCentral subscription charge ($152.87 including tax) I was billed about the same time for $15.93. I can't find any way to get in touch with anyone from Adobe. The phone number I'm supposed to call is cut off on my invoice. Can someo

Can I save each form after I fill them out? I have the same form to fill out for 250 customers and need to save each ones information. Will it do that?

Hi,
Yes, you can save each form after filling the information, but each with a different name.

The trial period for this product has expired - When trying to edit an InfoPath Form (Edit in Browser)

Hello,
When I tried to Edit an already filled InfoPath Form using "Edit in Browser" I got the "The trial period for this product has expired" message, could anyone help me where to start checking what could be wrong?

Hi,
Have you got the error when doing other tasks in SharePoint site?
The issue may be due to inconsistent permissions on the 12.0 hive in the HKLM_Software registry for the WSS_WPG and WSS_ADMIN_WPG groups. The OOB permission set
should be: WSS_WPG has Read permission and WSS_ADMIN_WPG has Full Control permission. To resolve the issue, please try to rerun "psconfig.exe -cmd secureresources" on every server in the farm will reapply the necessary permissions
on the registry. Or you can open up the registry editor and find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0 collection. Provide read permissions for the WSS_WPG and Full permissions for WSS_ADMIN_WPG manually.
Hope it helps.

My iphone 4 locked up for several hours. i then tried to reset by holding down the home button and power button at the same time for 10 seconds and then the home button for 10 seconds. it is now completely black. what do i do? couldnt restore it in iTunes

My iphone 4 locked up for several hours. i then tried to reset by holding down the home button and power button at the same time for 10 seconds and then the home button for 10 seconds. it is now completely black. what do i do? couldnt restore it in iTunes. Has anyone had this problem? Help!

Same thing happened to me today. I wasn't even using the phone for the past 6 hours and suddenly I can't connect to the internet, none of my internet apps would work - nothing. I tried to call AT&T from the iphone and it locked up - couldn't turn it off, change to the home screen - nada - brick.
Did the Home/Power button thing and that worked but this I've only had this phone for about 4 weeks and it's locked up more times than my 3GS did the whole two years I had it! Ridiculous

I cannot close or import or any function to iphoto. I have been getting the same message for many days "Photos are being imported to the photo library. Please wait for import to complete." I do not know where the photos would be importing from.

I cannot close or import or any function to iphoto. I have been getting the same message for many days "Photos are being imported to the photo library. Please wait for import to complete." I do not know where the photos would be importing from. How do I get it to proceed?

After Force Quitting, as LarryHN recommended,
Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. By default it is in your Pictures folder.
Ctrl-click or right-click the iPhoto lIbrary. Select "Show package contents" from the panel, that will pop up.
Look for a folder named "Importing" or "Import". Remove this folder, but don't touch anything else.
Then launch iPhoto again.
If iPhoto now is working again, check the folder you removed, if there are any photos that you want to keep and save them.

How to insert a UUID into multiple tables in the same form

I am trying to insert a UUID into 2 different tables at the
same time ie to let this be created in the form and then insert
this ID into 2 linked tables in a database using Access.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Thanks very much

So you have one form that processes information for two
tables, or do you
have two forms (one for each table - except the UUID)?
If it is one form just run two SQL insert statements. One for
the primary
table, then one for the related table.
If it is two forms run the above two SQL statements then an
update statement
to finish filling the second table.
Or am I completely misunderstanding the issue?

Use the same form with different button turned on in different calls

Can I use the same form with different buttons turned on in different calls?
Thanks!

This is to avoid piracy. What could happen is, people could buy music, and give it away for free online. Usually it is then you buy a complete album off iTunes that it will only be available on one device. It is tied to that account, and the device must be registered to that account to listen to it.

Genius - You did not complete the entire form

When I try to sign in to Genius with my Apple ID it gives me the message:
You did not complete the entire form
The only bit to fill in is the Apple ID. I tried using me.com but that didn't work either.

Jeez I have survived such tricky stuff with this kit! I had the same problem here. I did'nt see it either and probably never would have! Thought that was AOL. Are Apple forms becoming more cryptic or I am becoming more stupid? I hope not, on both counts. Thank you. Paul
No, it's been that way for years, ever since Apple & AOL agreed to let AOL members access the store from AOL.

Prevent multiple users accessing the same form

hi,
i am working in forms
i have a requirement like this
if more than one user are using the same form and try to access the same record then the second user should not be able to do transaction
he should be popped up with a msg saying that other user is working on it
can any one suggest how to do this in my form
thanks in advance
selvaraj s

That is pretty much exactly the way Forms works automatically.
Two users can use the same form, and can even display the same data record. One of the users can make changes to the record -- Forms locks the row upon the FIRST keystroke in the first field the user begins to change.
Once the row is locked, the second user is free to look at the record, and won't even know if another user has begun making changes. However, if second user tries to change even one field in the record, Forms pops up the message, "Could not reserve record (2 tries). Keep trying? Yes / No"
There are also protections so if the first user actually changes the row and commits, then the second user tries to make a change. Forms will automatically detect whether changes were made, and if so, will undo the change and issue the message, "FRM-40654: Record has been updated by another user. Re-query to see change."
The above automatic processing works very nicely. If it will not work for you, then what is it you need?

Upload image to directory and data to database from the same form

Hello all
I'm playing at building a shopping cart (never done one
before) from a tutorial by Gordon Knapp at www.webthang.com.
I have created the site and it works perfectly. Now I want to
extend it.
There is a form that allows the user to add data to the
database. I would also like to be able to upload an image to a
directory on the server and add the data to the database at the
same time from the same form. It would be good if the input field
"<input name="product_picture" type="text" id="product_picture"
tabindex="6" size="50" />" could be populated automatically by
the filename of the image being uploaded, but this isn't a
neccessity.
I have looked at various ASP Upload packages and I can upload
an image alone but none of them make it clear how to upload the
image and add data to the database at the same time.
As this is a private project I need any suggestions to by
free.
The tutorial shows how to create the site in Ultra Dev but
worked perfectly well in DW. The page concerned looks like this. It
is named 'admin_add.asp':
