Form once saved, data is disappearing on the offline form!

Hello
I am lauching my_form on IE browser on the 3/4 of the screen of GUI (Graphical User Interface of SAP), on the rest of the screen i put some GUI push buttons for SUBMIT (am not using Adobe's SUBMIT button). By chance if user forgets any mandatory field populating, then am throwing a GUI popup message, then the user closes this popup message, well, but
1) User can see physically data presenting on the form, but when user SAVEs the form by pressing Adobe's SAVE button.....the SAVEd copy on the local PC does not holding any data! all the form is blank
This is happening if popup comes up and user closes it
Pls. let me know how can i fix this issue that the form must retail the entered data all the time irrespective of popups
Thank you

Thank you. Sorry my original question is confusing, i will put it in the below way instead,
1st scenario:
I am launching 2 pages my_form on the IE browser, am entering data on first page, at this point i saved it on my laptop, it saved properly and when i checked the saved copy (offline copy) its holding all the entered data, well.
Now, the issue is,
2nd scenario:
I am launching my_form, am entering data on first page, at this point I SUBMITted the form (am not using Adobe's SUBMIT button, i have my own custom SUBMIT button outside of Adobe),
2A) Say, there is some errors (example, formatting, madatory fields not fillled, cross-depenedency validations failed)..... my application (its not adobe, i have my own custom application) is throwing some message
Now, user can see the entered data on the form physically....if user saves at this point, then, the saved offline form not holding any data
2B) Say, its successfully submitted, then my aplication (its not adobe, i have my own custom application) is throwing a message saying that "Successfully submitted" via Popup
Now, user can see the entered data on the form physically....if user saves at this point, then, the saved offline form not holding any data
Issue is coming when messages are throwing...i guess at this point some stuff/memories/nodes/fields/variables are clearing/loosing its data
Thank you

When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

It's probably the fields highlight color of the application, which you can change via Edit - Preferences - Forms.

Hi chuck,
If you ave created the form and then filling it yourself and saving the form, the filled data should be there when you reopen the same form.
Can you please send the form to me at [email protected] so that I can have a look.

With a PDF Dynamic form using show/hide actions, how to ensure that when the completed form is saved, closed and re-opened, the form still show the fields as before it was closed?

With a PDF Dynamic form using show/hide actions, how to ensure that when the completed form is saved, closed and re-opened, the form still show the fields as before it was closed?
I have developed a form with fields hidden by default, that become visible based on box ticked or radio button selections.
My problem is that, when I close the form and re-open it, it comes back to it's default presentation, regardless of the information already recorded in the form (including in the now hidden fields.
How to correct that
Thanks in advance for any hint you can provide.

I've had the same problem. This solved it...
Go to the "Form properties..." in the File-menu. Select "Run-time" to the left and in the box "Scripting" Preserve scripting changes to form when saved: choose Automatically (Script-based state changes are saved locally in an insecure fashion. This option cannot be used for certified forms).
Hope it works for you to...

Where is the Offline form stored after its emailed out to SAP

Hi All,
I have created an offline form earlier. This is getting mailed to SAP, getting processed and then stored using an Archivelink solution to an external server. This is currently working and at any point we can pull up the adobe form from the server.
I am working on a second offline form now, for which the client doesnt want to use the external server or Archivelink.
This made me wonder as to where the pdf form gets stored in SAP if we dont add any additional coding. Is it on the SAP Server ? I need to firstly check where the pdf form gets stored and secondly find the storage capacity as the client expects to send minimum one pdf form dialy to SAP. Thirdly I need to check if we can retrive the form back at a later stage for audit purposes.
Any idea where the offline form gets stored in SAP once an email is sent ? Any help on the above three ques is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance! Liz

Hi Otto,
You have a good concern. I am relatively new to SAP if you havent already guessed that and learning something new as each day passes. Therefore I do have a lot of doubts doing many things first time. Most of the time, the questions asked in these forums are way beyond me. Thus I am not able to help anyone.
However from my side, as and when I solve an issue with the help of an answer in the forum, I do post the solution to help others. If you think, there is any better way I can help, do let me know.
Thanks for your help as always, Liz

How to add/delete rows on the form without saving data

I am new to apex
I am working on project and need some help on creating a form
my requirment is to save a request that has multiple questions.
i have a request form with multiple regions
On one of the region that takes questions, I want to create a tabular form such that i can add/delete/update row without hitting database and enter multiple questions
each row is one question.
Apex has the default functionality of having a tabular form linked to a table that onload shows the data from that table and also on click of add or delete hits the data base to save the data.
However i want to load a form that does not show any data if its a new request and click of add/delete should not update the databse. It should just add/delete a row on the form
so user logs in and can create a request that has multiple questions
finally want to submit the form and save all the information of the form in multiple tables.
As of now i a m able to have a simple form and a process that save 1 question per request.
How do i achieve this. Please assist.

Do that using collections like in this example:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:176
Once you are done, you may decide either to save that or to clean it up.

I filled in a PDF form. When finished, I could not find how to save the completed form. So I took a chance and used the phone's back button. A message popped up saying the form was saved and to go to the cloud to view it. What cloud?

I tried all I could think of but found nothing. In addition, I checked the phone's memory and found the file with a created date/time only about 15 minutes old. When I opened it, I was at first relieved. The portion showing on the screen was filled in. Then I looked at the other 3 and ¾ pages. All fill spaces are empty! What's up with that? And where do I find the finished form in that illusive cloud?

Form document will automatically be saved after closing the file. As far as cloud message is concerned, it seems your Mobile link setting has been turned on. When you pressed device back button after filling the form, it was saved to your Acrobat.com account. You can access this document by going to Acrobat.com tab present in left pane. Its a cloud storage area where you can upload/save any document.

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':

After this TS17900100 task i have email step that telling 'Data has been updated successfully' but i haven't wriiten any activity after TS17900100 . with the process form, is it possible to save data in backend..

Hi,
This task does the automatic update if the config is designed to do so in backend. Else it will just modify the 'procstat' variable and depending on that you can proceed further. Let me know what exactly error you are facing.

PDF Interactive Forms Not Saving Data in Preview

Interactive PDF forms opened in Preview doesn't seem to save data you fill in when you save the document. Acrobat seems to save and retain the document without a problem. Anyone know what's going on?

Adobe wants to keep you using only Adobe software so they have designed in incompatibilities with the OS. I don't know of any other PDF tool that can do fill-in forms. If you want to use fill-in forms, you'll have to print it using CUPS-PDF (I haven't tried this with Leopard yet). You could also use Skim to turn any PDF into a fill-in form.

Form converts to XML data and I need the pdf form to be visable

Hello all,
I just created a form in pro 8 for our salesmen and it is a sales order form. I have sent it out to them to fill out and return it by pressing the email button in the form and some have come back as XML date stream and some came back as the original form with all fields filled in. I want to know how to get all of them to come back filled in instead of the XML Data. All salesmen have Reader 8 installed on the machines. Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Adobe form not saving data.

hi Experts,
I am facing strange problems with Adobe forms.
I am working on both Offline and online adobe forms.
adobe form which i make does not allow to save data.
I am using the Adobe liveCycle designer 7.1.
The Adobe reader version is 7.08
and service pack is SPS 11.
I have used both the tutorials for offline and online adobe forms.
Online Problem :-
The project for online works fine and it also allows to save data(when i save the form on my PC).
But when i create a new form on my machine it does not allow to save data.
Really confuse what the problem is.
I have also tried this.
Copeid the XDP file from the Online tutorial project into my project
if i use this work around the the problem is resolved. But i am no able to understand why the XDP CREATED on my machine does not work.
Offline problem:-
In this case i am not able to save data in the form at all.
As the PDF created itself not allow to save data.
Please help.
Points would be awarded to helpful answers.
Regards,
Sanjyoti.

Hi Satya & sanjyoti,
I am facing a pecular problem in using Adobe forms.
I am able to pass data from webdynpo application, to the Interactive form(using mappings, as mentioned by satya).
But for the same form & WD application, i am not able to pass data from the Interactive Form, back to the WD application.
My scenario is like this:
I need to show a form, with some prefilled data, such as date, userID, etc. I populate the node in my WD application, & then call the form.
The form displays the above prefilled data. Now the user has to fill the remaining fields & click on submit(Submit-to-sap button). The onsubmit property of the Interactive form is mapped to a onaction event, where WD tries to read the data entered by the user.
The problem is that on clicking of the submit button in the form, the event is not getting called.
If i use a button in the WD view itself, then the action gets called, but there is no data. In short, the data is NOT getting passed from Interactive form to WD application.
Can you please help me out with this?
Thanks,
Hanoz

Interactive report's data not displaying on the edit form.

I have an interactive report that contains 3 rows. When I click on the edit button next to one of these rows, the edit form displays the data from that row.
But when I click the edit buttons next to the other 2 report rows, I get an error message that states: "ORA-01403: no data found. Error Unable to fetch row."
I do not see why this is happening. The PK of the table involved is "Request Date", so the report's "Link Column" region sends the value "Request Date" to the item P54_Request_Date in the form page.
Any idea why this would work correctly for one of the report rows but not for the other 2?
Clearly, each of the report rows must have a value for the PK, so why would the form not be able to find the same row that the report displays? Is it a problem with the form's "Fetch Row from" process?
Thanks.

Hello:
Your problems are primarily related to in your choice of a 'Date' type as the PK for your table. The Automated Row Fetch (ARF) process uses a SQL statement similar to the one below to retrieve a record from a table select c1, c2, c3 ... from tab where PK_col = :page_item_containing_PK_value . This would work find if the the 'page_item_containing_PK_value' were of the DATE data type. However, all APEX binds are done using varchar2. This means that the 'page_containging_PK_value' needs to have the char representation of the date that matches the default date setting on your database. So the page-item needs to be something like 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI'. In your case the PK item is probably being set to 'DD-MON-YYYY' and therefore the fetch fails.
Now, for the 'issue with the :' in the character representation of the date.The link on the report page uses the standard APEX URL syntax to construct the link
f?p=App:Page:Session:Request:Debug:ClearCache:itemNames:itemValues:PrinterFriendly
As you can see, the ':' acts as the separator that delineates the components that make up the APEX URL. So, having a ':' in the 'itemValues' component will make the APEX engine treat whatever follows the ':' in the value passed as a delimiter as opposed to being part of the value being passed.

Is there a way to change the time of a saved data to be as the same as the time-axis of the waveform graph?

Hi,
I've a problem while saving the waveform to a spreadsheet.
The problem that I'm facing is that I'm not able to save/change the time-axis of the waveform graph into the excel spreadsheet.
The attachments below are what I've programmed on.
1st file that would be asked to save is the results of the waveform.
2nd file, supposing to be the time-axis
3rd file, is the multiplication of results of CH 1 and CH 2.
Would be glad if someone can enlighten me with a solution which is suitable for LabView version 8.2 and Tektronix DPO 72004.
Thanks. ((((:

I've saved it as text file which could be read if I open it with excel spreadsheet.
My aim is to get the time-axis (x-axis) in the file rather than to get the date and time in the file.
The attachment is the waveform results that I've obtained.
