Form wher user adds or subtracts fields

Hi, This may be way over my head.
And since I only have acrobat pro for mac
it may not even be a possibility.
But I am creating reader enabled forms
and I would like the user to be able to add
and remove fields with just a click of a button.
Like this pdf does.
http://insurance.lovetoknow.com/Home_Storage_Inventory_Form
Can someone guide me in the right direction.

That particular form was created with LiveCycle Designer, which makes it easy to do such things. Forms created in Acrobat have some ability to add/remove fields, but it's more complicated and some of the methods won't work with Reader.

    How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

    You need to use LiveCycle (PC Only) to create a dynamic form like that.
    The best you can do with Acrobat to view all of the text in a field is to set the field to multiline, and set the size to "Auto" (If you don't set the size to 'Auto', you can enter as much text as you wish, but the user will need to use the scrollbar to view all of the text.)

  • Form fields in LiveCycle. I want to allow users to add URLs to a form so that they can be clicked and opened on the web by form reviewers (users). what is the best way to achieve this?

    Form fields in LiveCycle. I want to allow users to add URLs to a form so that they can be clicked and opened on the web by form reviewers (users). what is the best way to achieve this?

    Once the user has entered the URL they want to add to the form. You can use the loadXML function to implement some special text in a label...
    var linkValue = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><exData contentType=\"text/html\" xmlns=\"http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-template/2.8/\"><body xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" xmlns:xfa=\"http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/\" xfa:APIVersion=\"Acroform:2.7.0.0\" xfa:spec=\"2.1\"><p style=\"font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;letter-spacing:0in\">The new link the user have entered is:<a href=\"" + textfield.rawValue + "\">textfield.rawValue</a></p></body></exData>";
      this.resolveNode("lblURL").value.exData.loadXML(linkValue, 1, 1);

  • How to create a form where one user cant modify information entered by another user.

    First time using Acrobat. Very newbie on this. Company wants me to create forms.  As an example, new hire form where HR sends form to one department, they write in information as to what the user needs, etc. Then they send form to another department and thent they add comments or whatever to the same form
    What we want to accomplish is if the form is being sent from one person to another and each person adds information we want the infornation that was inputted locked so that other people cant edit it.
    Is this possible? Thanks for any input.

    If they're using Acrobat there's no real way of doing that. If they're using Reader, though, you can set the fields as read-only. It's far from a secure solution, though.

  • 10G-Form: How to add Email-id to the To: field in the Outlook?

    I am using 10G DB + 10G Form Builder.
    I've 'email_item' field in table where I am storing email-ids.
    I m displaying 'email_item' field and 'Send_Email_button' in the form.
    I want to add (copy) the exact email-id that has been displayed on the form to the To: field in the Outlook.
    Means whatever Email got displayed in the 'email_item' field, I want to add this Email automatically.
    I do not want to type manually the email-id of the person in the To: field of the Outlook like I am using rt. now as:
    WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger code=
    WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('mailto:hard_coded_value_of_email?subject=Testing%20Email: &body=Please%20check............');
    Pl help me.
    Gaurav

    Hi,
    For getting the email ID you can write a java code using the Iuser Interface. Have look to the following:
    public class UseremailID extends AbstractPortalComponent
    public void doContent(
    IPortalComponentRequest request,
    IPortalComponentResponse response)
    try
    IUserFactory userfactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
    IUserSearchFilter userfltr = userfactory.getUserSearchFilter();
    userfltr.setMaxSearchResultSize(5000);
    ISearchResult userResult = userfactory.searchUsers(userfltr);
    while (userResult.hasNext())
    response.write("<table border=0>\n");
    String uniqueid = (String) userResult.next();
    IUser user = userfactory.getUser(uniqueid);
    //IRole role = rolefactory.getRole(uniqueid);
    response.write("<tr><td bgcolor=Red>"+ user.getDisplayName()+ "</td></tr>\n");
    response.write("<tr><td bgcolor=Green>"+ user.getEmail()+ "</td></tr>\n");
    response.write("</table>\n");
    response.write("
    \n");
    catch (Exception e)
    for analyzing the error you just need to check the log file at your server. Visit the following path:
    <Your_SAP_Drive> :/usr/sap/<your_System_Name>/jc00/j2ee/cluster/server0/log/
    There you can view the .trc file. Open that file and look for the error or the Stack trace in that.

    I have a main fillable form.  From this main form the user may need additional forms.  I want to create checkboxes that link to these additional forms.  This part I believe I know how to do (Properties/Actions/Open a File).  What I want to add is a javascript to the checkbox that when the new file (or form) opens some of the data (the repetitive data like name, date, etc.) from the main form is placed into the form opened where the same form fields exist.  Is this possible?

    Yes, but then it all has to be done using a script. You can't use the built-in Open A File command.

  • When creating a fillable PDF form can I add a password to only selected fields?

    I am creating a fillable form which will require data entry from several different people before being returned to my office. There are certain fields on the form that need to be restricted to personnel in my office only. I have tried to accomplish this restriction many different ways but have been unsuccessful.
    The closest I have come to accomplishing this restriction is by adding a "For HRO Only" button which I can use to hide certain fields from personnel outside of my office and unhide the text field when the button is clicked. This would be perfect if I could add a password to the button. Unfortunately this is either not possible or I haven't figured out how to do it which means that personnel outside of my office can still access the fields with a click of a button.
    The only other way I have thought of to accomplish this restriction is to mark those fields as "read only" but it seems as though it would be very time consuming for personnel in my office to complete the form due to the fact that they would have to open "edit form",  open the properties for each field requiring their input, and uncheck "read only" for each one.
    Any help/options/ideas you can provide will be greatly appreciate. Thank you!

    Thank you so much for the quick response. This will be a huge help! I hate to be a bother, but can you tell me the steps to create the script or give me a reference/resouce to use? I have used adobe products quite a bit, but this is my first time creating a PDF Fillable Form that will be distributed for use by several people so I am a little lost.
    Also, I seem to be running into one more problem that I am hoping you can help me figure out. On the form there is a question for the recipient  to answer by checking one of two boxes, yes or no. Depending on the answer an action is initiated. This feature works perfectly, however the issue is that when the recipient choses "yes" he/she is directed to fill out four additional fields that I currently have set as "required", but when the recipient choses "No" the four additional fields are hidden yet still required. This becomes an issue when the recipient has completed the form and tries to submit the form. An error message pops up notifying the user there are required fields that are empty and must be completed before submission.
    My thought is (in a perfect world) one of these two options would be ideal:
    1. When the "No" option is chosen the four additional fields are changed from required to not required, or
    2. When the "No" option is chose the four additional required fields are autopopulated with NA.
    Either remedy would work just fine, however I am open to suggestions... Again thank you so much for your help with my previous question and thank you in advance for any information/help/advice you can provide in regards to my second question. 

  • Is there a way to create forms where certain fields would become required only if there was a certain choice made in a dropdown box in another field?

    Is there a way to create forms where certain fields would become required only if there was a certain choice made in a dropdown box in another field?

    Yes but you will have to create some custom JavaScript to do this.
    Also you should be aware that the "Required" property is only processed when the form is submitted to a scripted web page or "mailto:" process.

  • How to add a new Field to the WEB User Interface in CRM 2007

    Dear experts,
    I have been struggling to add a new field to the (CRM 2007) user interface from available fields for a specific view.
    I have maintained settings in BS__WD_CMPWBàRuntime Repository editoràComponentàViewàConfigurationàNew ConfigurationàAvailable FieldsàField Propertiesàand save.
    But the field is only appearing in display mode in the Web UI, which doesnu2019t allows any user input.
    I need your help to resolve the issue, I would be grateful if you could provide step-by-step documentation with screenshots or any other kind of documentation.
    Each suggestion will be appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Raghu ram.

    Hi Raghu Ram,
    I think you added a new custom field using some method like EEWB etc.,
    Then, you are adding the field onto the UI using UI Configuration Tool .. right ?
    These are the steps to diagnose:
    Method 1.Check the field properties in the model browser first.
      It should be showing 'C' i.e., CHANGEABLE. If it is showing as 'R', it is only READABLE.
      In such a case you need to find a BADI to change the field properties.
      For example, in Marketing Applications OBJ BADI has a method CHANGE FIELD PROPERTIES for this purpose.
    Method 2. Debug and check what is the value coming for RV_DISABLED parameter in the GET_I method in BSP_WD_CMPWB. This should be FALSE.
    Method 3. Check what are the field properties in the UI Configuration tool.
    Make sure it is not a display only field.

  • How to add a user defined HTTP header field?

    Hi, everyone!
    I want to add a user defined HTTP header field to a HTTP
    response header.
    I use the following statements in testHeader.jsp
    response.addHeader("myheader", "123");
    response.sendRedirect("middleHeader.jsp");
    in middleHeader.jsp,
    out.print(request.getHeader("myheader"));
    But the output in middleHeader.jsp is null!
    How to add a user defined HTTP header field to a HTTP
    response header? Are there some sample codes?
    Cheers,
    George

    the send redirect actually creates a new request (through the client) and thus a new response
    thus the headers you set in the response are gone for the next request/response
    You can try servletDispatcher.forward

  • Can users add an attachment & save the form?

    I am attempting to create a form that users can download, fill out & submit with an attachment. It appears that the only way to add an attachment is the use an online (web form). But I don't see how users can save the online (web form) prior to submitting it.
    Is there a workaround that will accomplish adding an attachment & saving the form?

    Basically you are correct. Web forms currently have no way of locally saving them prior to submission. You could turn on email notifications found in the options tab to allow the user to see the data they entered.

  • Where does Lion get its usernames? (former Linux user)

    Just some minutes ago, I opened the lid of my Macbook and noticed that something was using the CPU for 50% continuously. When I opened Activity Monitor, the only two CPU-using processes were kernel_task and WindowsServer, but not enough to cover 50%.
    Safari also wouldn't respond. Force-quitting worked, but starting it again would show the window but then result in a spinning beachball of death.
    When I opened the terminal, the prompt said "I have no name!@macbook$ "
    When I typed the command "id", it gave me a user ID (502) but no username!
    After killing all apps and mucking about, the CPU suddenly went back to the normal 3-5% usage, and everything worked fine again.
    Obviously, something went wrong with the process that does the user identification. As a former Linux user, I'd say the user data resides in /etc/passwd but that's not where it's at. Where does Lion get its usernames and passwords?
