Create New Form

I am trying to create a new form that is the exact size of my envelope. I click Start - Printers, then select my Photosmart C6180. Click File, Server Properties, but the create new form button is grayed out. I am using Mail Merge w/Open Office, and I can print a test of the first envelope on letter paper, but not on the envelope itself. I have Vista-64bit

I made a mistake in explaining but I don't think it mattered but let me see if I can explain better.   I create a work order in frmWO that writes to tblWO.   A relationship exists between tblVehicles and tblWO where I select the
VehicleID on the frmWO. Also on the frmWO are four dates. WOStartDate, WOEndDate, LoanStartDate and LoanEndDate.   Also on the frmWO is a WOStatus field.   This acts as a control for billing purposes. The Status can be
Scheduled, Active and Completed. As an example of what is common, I create a WO for the initial delivery. More often than not, the WO's are completed the same day. So on the initial WO, I would choose the vehicle and the Loan Dates along with the
WO start and end dates.   For instance, I create the work order for today with 4/9/2015 as the WO start date, WO end date, and the Loan Start date.   The Loan End Date would be 4/16/2015. What I want to happen is click a "Create
Return WO" button that creates the return WO with the Loan Start Date and End Date being the same but the WO start and end date now become what was the Loan End Date (4/16/2015) from the WO I was on when I hit the "Create Return WO" button.
I would like the WO Status to be "Scheduled", the VehicleID to be the same and then the dates from Above to be brought in as described. There are a few other fields I want to transfer to the new WO as well but I figured if I could get what
I have mentioned to work then I am pretty sure I can get the other fields I need by reviewing the code and adjusting it as needed.   Does this explanation help Tom? I am not sure how to use an Append Query as that seems like it would Append
something existing whereas I need a whole new WO to be created based on the one being viewed when I click the create button.   Let me know if I can provide anything more that helps clarify? Thanks, Troy

Sounds like a problem with the privileges.
Try creating a new user, say user_temp, and grant the user Manage privilege to All Portal DB Providers and Manage to All Schemas.
Try creating a form after logging in as user_temp.
The minimum privileges required to create a Portal DB provider component is Create privilege on the Portal DB Providers and Manage on the Portal DB Provider schema.

Apex 3.0 Q: "Optional Label with Help" default when creating new form?

When I create a new application, usually one of the first things I do is set the default item label to "Optional", so I don't have the annoying popup help link.
Now, when you create a new Form region, based on a table, for all the items the label is set to "Optional label with help". Am I right in hoping this is something that was overlooked when developing Apex, and that it will be fixed in version 3.0, so that it sets the items to the default label as set in the Shared Components?
And is there a way to change the labels for a lot of items at the same time, other than changing the theme templates?

AFAIK, label help in default manner is based on column coments of a table.
Later there is now way to easy reedit these values but manually...

How to create new form fields in several columns (spreadsheet) and have them named consecutively?

Hopefully someone can help. I created a new form from an Excel spreadsheet, but the form field recognition didn't "take" well and very little of the spreadsheet translated into form fields. I need to create new fields (31) for each column (about 10) and I want the fields in each column to have a keyword from the parent column and the fields numbered consecutively. I'm really hoping I don't have to do this manually!
Next, is there a way to total the values in a column of fields (the same as the SUM function in Excel?) or does the form user have to dig out a calculator and add everything?
Can I create an email (submit) button and direct how (ie email) and by what method the form is sent?
Once the form is completed, is there a way for the user to lock it before sending it - ie a button they could press to make it no longer fillable? Or can I set the document to be a regular .pdf once it leaves the host machine?
I think that's it! Hopefully someone can help soon - this is a work project that could be potentially very time consuming if I have to create each form field manually. Thank you for any assistance!
Cheers,

Rats! Thank you for your link - I may take you up on that... however for the purposes of this form I'm more than halfway done, so I might as well keep plugging away. A workaround I found was to creat 32 of something I only need 31 of, then delete the parent. Somehow even playing with spacing on the "create multiple fields" option as the fields are being created only gets the vertical alignment close - no matter what I do I still end up manually aligning (vertically) 31 little boxes for each column so they fit visually. Grrrr.
Yes, this can be very tricky. If you don't get the exact right offset between each field, the difference will accumulate and after a while it will be completely off.
You just have to play around with it, until you get it right. Or almost right, and then adjust it manually.
Another thing I've noticed, is that when you select one field and right click for properties, you get an expanded version, as opposed to select/shift/enter for a bunch of cells only yields an abbreviated properties box - what's up with that? Is there a way to change this? For instance, I had set the properties for a column of 31 cells to be number, 1 decimal place. Halfway through my project, the lady I am doing the favor for tells me she would like 2 decimal places, requiring me to manually change each box for 62 cells! Apparently cell formatting is not an option in the abreviated properties dialogue! Is there a fix for that?
No, there isn't. Some propeties you have to set manually (or get right the first time, before copying and pasting...). There is a way to do it with a script, but it's a bit complex and requires using an undocumented method.
This next question is a bit more complicated, and may not be possible. The form I am creating is for payroll purposes, so at the moment it is generic (31 days) and the user fills in the month manually. Is it possible to get the form to recognize a month value (or create a pulldown menu with a selection of months to choose from) and limit the days accordingly? Or better yet, run a calendar function so that weekends and stat holidays are highlighted on the affected row? Kind of like what you can do with an Excel spreadsheet, which is what I designed the form in at the start (then printed to .pdf - the form field recognition did NOT work well on my spreadsheet! hence me doing every cell manually). Is this even possible, and if so, is it something I could learn to do?
Yeah, it's possible, but requires quite a bit of scripting knowledge. If you wish, contact me personally (by PM or email at try6767 at gmail dot com) and I could possibly create this for you.
If you want to do it yourself, you would have to learn a lot about both the Date object in JS and about the various date printing and scanning methods in Acrobat JS.

Error Creating New Form Version

OIM 9.0.1.5 Build 1600.10
Whenever I try to create a new Form Version for an Object Form or Process Form I am getting an error.
The Form Version has Lookup Queries as properties and this seems to be causing the issue. We did not see this in the past but are now seeing it.
Anybody else see this issue? Know of a workaround? Know what the validateLookupQuery is actually doing?

Task List - Create New Form for Subtasks

Hi, Is this possible to create a new form for SubTasks in SharePoint 2013 task List
probably using Infopath. Out of Box, Sharepoint opens datasheet view to add the subtask for a main task. just want to know whether it is possible.
Any help will be highly appreciated
Ram Sharma

Hi Ram,
Per my understanding, you want to create a New Form for creating sub tasks.
By default, the subtasks can only be created in the datasheet view, which means that there are some fields of a task cannot be filled in when subtask created, what’s
more, there is no OOTB feature can meet this requirement.
Actually, a subtask is also a normal task, the difference is that it can be connected with the parent task through a property “ParentID”. Let’s say if there is a task
with “ID” 1, then the “ParentID” of its subtasks will be “1;#1”.
Thus, as a workaround, you can create a custom New Form page with the extra “ParentID” field to be filled in. After submitting, a new task will be created, because
the “ParentID” has a value which points to another task, this new task will be a subtask now. This can be done with Client Object Model programmatically.

Creating new forms using a button

I am trying to make a button that creates a new form which in turn creates another form etc. any suggestions

You could just create an new instance of a Form in the click event handler for a Button and display it by calling its Show method:
Form1:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
Form2 frm2 = new Form2();
frm2.Show();
The constructor of the second form can then display another form:
Form2:
public partial class Form2 : Form
public Form2()
InitializeComponent();
Form3 frm3 = new Form3();
frm3.Show();

Workbench request when creating new form routine in TMG

Dear SCN,
I have build a TMG for a custom table ZSPFLI_1 with fields.
Field Name          Data Element
MANDT               S_MANDT
CARRID              S_CARR_ID
CONNID              S_CONN_ID
COUNTRYFR       LAND1
CITYFROM         S_FROM_CIT
DOC                   ERDAT
ERNAM              ERNAM
TIME                   UZEIT.
I have created a form routine. ZCREATE_ENTRY to auto populate DOC, ERNAM, TIME.
FORM ZCREATE_ENTRY.
ZSPFLI3-DOC = SY-DATUM.
ZSPFLI3-ERNAM = SY-UNAME.
ZSPFLI3-TIME = SY-UZEIT.
ENDFORM.
The TMG and Function group and table are saved and activated as local objects.
I want to add another form routine that will modify the DOC, ERNAM, TIME for any record that is edited by TMG for the custom table ZSPFLI_1.
Every object was saved as local object.
The problem is when I am creating a new form routine, it is asking for workbench request and I don't have the option to save it as local object in the dialog box.
Regards,
Soumen Das.

Dear SCN,
Is the issue due to the fact that we can only add form routine once when defining the TMG. I think this should not be the limitation as fields may be added afterwards, and this may require to modify the form routine events.
Regards,
Soumen.

Create new form in user exit ZRGGBR000

Hi everybody
I wanted to know if we can add a new form in the user exit ZRGGBR000 or we have to use the existing ones?
Its the first time im using that user exit and I dont quite know how to proceed
Thanks

sorry, may be i wrongly posted this question
theres a form called get_exit_titles in which all the exits are listed
I wanted to know if we can add new exits or we have to use the existing ones
Sorry for the inconvenience

Created new form and whenever I try to submit it to a URL I get this error

"An error exits on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF...." I am the person who created and have no idea where to begin to troubleshoot this.
Can anyone point in the right direction. More info: I am filling in s form trhough a browser, in windows, and then submitting the form to a URL for storage in a doc management system using an SQL database. The application is called Laservault, in case anyone has any experience with it.
Thanks
jackie

OK, that helps. In the submit button creation you need to specify the data to be HTML data. Also, the form field names are only for keeping track of the fields. You need to have a body of information (typed or whatever - often a document page produced in your word processor) that you add the form fields too. Then you know what needs to be added. This is the same as creating a form in HTML. You have to create the appearance of the form (what it should look like and the text, etc), then you add the form fields where they are needed.
The submit button should provide the URL for the submission and also the information about the format of the submission, HTML in your case. It is not uncommon with general scripts that you have to have some hidden fields that tell the script other things that are needed. This latter part depends on the script you are using and you need to understand how that script works. You can not generally throw anything at a script, but have to be sure your information has a specific form.
Another useful bit of information is whether you are using Designer or Acrobat directly for creating the form. Also what version of Acrobat are you dealing with? There may be more questions to come, but many are basic so that we can figure out what you are doing. If we can replicate your problem, helping is a lot easier.

Creation of new forms

Hi,
Is it possible to create new forms(where user will input some data and then using business logic some workflows will occur) in oracle ucm using hcsp,hcst.Or is there any other way.

HCSF could be used to have forms. Whether the result of the form is being picked up by a workflow has to do with workflow configuration mainly.

New Form View

When creating new forms, the light blue outlines is hard to see on the screen. Is there any way to change the color?
Also, can you magnify the screen for better viewing? I catch myself squinting at the screen to see if the boxes are uniform.

Hi,
I am sorry you are having trouble seeing things in the Design tab. Unfortunately I don't have a good answer for either issue, the color of the fields is fixed, you can change the background color to try to obtain a better contrast but the white background is probably clearest.
For the zoom, our site doesn't zoom in browsers, the best I can recommend is changing your screen resolution so everything is bigger including FormsCentral, I know that isn't a great solution.
Thanks,
Josh

Speed up process to create web forms that put info into database

Hi All
Basically what Im trying to ask is that I have been developing jsp pages with some javabeans to insert information into databases and then to insert/retreive this information. I have been doing this by hand and it takes time even though I have a library of beans that I have built overtime. My management wants me to deploy new forms within 30 minutes.
Current method of creating forms
==========================
1 - I make the form in dreamweaver
2- Copy and paste the code into my IDE jpadpro
3- Put in the bean connection in the jsp page and create new insert statement
4 - Create the result page
5- Ftp pages to server
I am looking to speed the process of creating new forms which connect to ms sql server (insert) information. I have already invested in crystal reports to make reports which i think has cut my development time by 10 foldes. I am looking for something similar to insert information into the databases.
If there is no such software then is there a java IDE where I can design web page forms visually (like dreamweaver/ microsoft infopath) and create the jdbc connections through wizards. I think microsofts visual studio does this, but i cant use this as i am working with j2ee with ms sql server database.
I am currently looking into eclipse with the myeclipse plugin to see if it will speed things up. Any suggestions from anyone most welcomed.
Also will JSF be better to use?
Regards
Antek

Cutting down development times of forms applications is probably why they created Formular (http://formular.redeye.no/ ).
In my company, we use Formular to define the data we wish to collect. We do this in XML. The XML is pretty straight forward to grasp. Formular uses this XML to generate the actual HTML form so you do not need to build several JSPs for each form you display. Formular handles multiple pages gracefully.
After building a few forms this way, you quickly learn ways to save time by establishing a library of commonly used components such as data field validators.
These are components you always end up using in many forms (such as data formating, value range checks, required checks, etc.).
The Formular package allows you to reuse those.
The other fine feature is the availability of data sources. These are classes that Formular uses to populate your forms (or example generate select lists, or radio buttons from data you have in a database or even a file).
Finally, you might be lucky to be in a position to create a single form processing model for your applications. What we have is a generic form processing class that receives data collected by Formular, and use the configuration data from the XML to determine how that data will be handled. You could for instance have a class that you call/invoke dynamically depending on how the form is configured.
I use the XML file custom parameters for this (these params and their values are invisible to the user but accessible by the generic form handler that comes with the package).
You might use these to specify the table you want that form to be posted into, and also maybe even specify exactly which fields.
For our usage, this package is of great value, and we found the licensing costs very attractive. A license is around 43 dollars per site if I remember well.
For the amount of work you put in, I'd recommend this software for you to evaluate.

How to create editable form with non-updatable vo

Hi,
i need to create a new form on non-updatable VO.
My requirement is: i have Data base View, based on that view i have created VO, based on this VO i need to create new form, when ever i submit a request, web service will invoke and that validate the data and sends to the data base.
when ever i drag drop the vo i couldn't able to enter any data bcoz all the data are coming in the form of output boxes.
can any one help how can i create this.

Check the setting of your viewobject attributes settings, most probably they are 'updatable never', set them to "updatable always".
This way you can drag the view as an editable form.
About sendind data to the database, i guess you have an idea how to do it afterwards :)
