Forms 6i (winNT) and VB GRID. HELP ME !

hi to everybody
I would like to know if it is possible to insert inside a form (6i for WinNT) a grid developed in VB6.
The grid would have to visualize the data taken on a view on a DB ORACLE.
In this case as I can access the controls of the object grid from my application Forms?
Thanks in advance

From where I can download Forms6iInstallCD.zip and its Patch?I am not sure that you can get the Forms 6i install CD anymore. (I have one, and stored it into the zip file for easy transfer to my new computer.) ...Edit: Apparently I am incorrect. See the next post below. Thank you Aleksandar .
Patch 18 is available from Oracle on Metalink, but it is hard to find.
Try this link: Patch 18 (Oracle patch number: 4948577 )
Here is how to do the search: Log into metalink ( https://metalink.oracle.com ), then click on the Patches & Updates tab, then Simple Search.
On the "Search" tab, select "Product or Family (Advanced)".
Set the following:
Product: Oracle Developer
Release: Developer 6i
Platform: Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
Click Search.
go to the end, find 4948577 "RELEASE 6I : PATCH 18 (Patchset)
You only need to apply Patch 18, since it includes all previous patches.
If you set the Release to "Developer 6i - 6.0.8.28", you will get Patch 19, ( 6194129, Tracking bug for Forms/Reports 6i Patch 19 for Apps customers, 15-Jul-2007 ). I have not installed that one, but I may try it soon. Update...(Patch 19 caused problems on my setup.)

Installing Oracle 8i and Forms 6i Messes up SQL PLUS HELP PLEASE!!!

I have Win2K, originally I had Oracle 8i (home was "orant"), and I was able to connect to oracle through SQL PLUS. Then I installed the Forms 6i (downloaded version from OTN) on separate home , and I couldn't invoke forms, so I copied tnsnames.ora from 8i to forms' directory, and I lost connection with oracle sqlplus.
I then re-installed first forms on "orant" and then 8i on "ornat\ora8i" and I still cannot connect sqlplus. I have homeworks due, and cannot afford to go to lab late nights, so please help me!!!

hI,
I have the problem backward!
I created a profile then assigned it to the user, then I launched the apps thr the browser, it worked prompting the message "...password will expire in 3 days..."
Now I reassigned the Default profile back to the user which does not expire the password, launched the apps again it still prompted that password warning message! I even deleted the profile that was first created, still got the warning.
I tried to do it alter user in SqlPlus but not able to connect to database using the same System account as Sysdba (used to connect in Enterprise Console successfully), received error :Insufficient Privileges.
What is wrong ? Thanks.

Difference between data form and data grids

Can anybody tell me what is the difference between data form and data grid.
Regards

data forms have restricted access. user can not access all the dimension and members, based on his role and authentication can access the form.
data grid r used for calculation, currency translation and coslidation and it consists of menu of options for diffrent consolidation based on cell status.
data grid can have line item information, description and cell status information.

Forms 3.0 and Reports 1.5

Hi everyone,
Will forms 3.0 and reports 1.5 work with Oracle 8.x.
If yes then how is it done.
If no then is there a way to convert forms 3.0 and reports 1.5
applications to forms 4.5 and reports 3.0 i.e. from a character
mode platform to GUI mode.
Thanx in advance

Hi there!
Now if you are upgrading to FORMS5 then you need to rename the

(F5gen32). This does work because I use this technic.

Forms 6.0 and SHA-1 Encryption

Where can I find information on the compatibility of Oracle Forms 6.0 and SHA-1? We have some users who just moved to new PCs with SHA-1 settings in sqlnet.ora for a different application and Forms gets error "ORA-12649: Unknown encryption or data integrity algorithm."
Any help is appreciated. Thanks,

Hi,
Oracle Forms 6i does not support Advances Security for SQL*Net if this is what your question is. ASO is supported with Forms 9i and above

Radio button's click event to script both ".presence" and ".mandatory" -- Need help !

Hi all,
I've adopted the script stated in HightlightOneRequiredField.pdf so that the print button in my form can detect and prevent null field before pop up the print dialog. It works fine.
In my form, I've created a mandatory 2-radio buttons group with click event script written, using ".presence", in each button. When user clicks:
Button A: make subform A visible and subform B invisible;
Button B: make subform A invisible and subform B visible.
Apart from the visibility of the subforms, what I want more is to add a .mandatory script (together with the click event) in the buttons to turn some fields' mandatory in the subforms on and off so that when user clicks:
Button A: will also turn some fields' value type in subform A to be "User
Entered-Required", whereas some of that in subform B to be "-
optional";
Button B: will turn the subform B's fields to "-Required" and subform A's
fields back to "-optional"
However no luck with me. When I press the print button after any of the radio buttons checked, the print dialog still show up even the subforms' fields are null as if those fields' value type always remain "-optional"
I wonder if this problem is caused by Chinese binding name ? The script written in the radio button B is:
FormA.presence = "invisible";
FormB.presence = "visible";
if (B1.mandatory = "disabled")
B1.mandatory = "error";
if (B2.mandatory = "disabled")
B2.mandatory = "error";
if (B3.mandatory = "disabled")
B3.mandatory = "error";
if (A1.mandatory = "error")
A1.mandatory = "disabled";
if (A2.mandatory = "error")
A2.mandatory = "disabled";
if (A3.mandatory = "error")
A3.mandatory = "disabled";
B1, B2 and B3 represent the Chinese fields' binding name in FormB
A1, A2 and A3 represent the Chinese fields' binding name in FormA
(The script in radio button A is reversed in this way.)
Have I done something wrong in the above (click event) javascript?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Forms 10g installed and running on Windows Vista

Update 12-Dec-2008: Oracle has published NOTE 559067.1 -- How to Install Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 - hence 10.1.2.3 - on Windows Vista, 24-OCT-2008 with some installation help.
Update 07-July-2008: Added text at the bottom showing how to find patchsets for Forms 10g.
Update 29-May-2008: This thread was started in November, 2007. In January, 2008, Oracle released Patch 3 for Forms 10g, which makes Forms 10g compatible with Windows Vista. As time permits I'll try to keep the information in this post up to date. Updated information will be inserted as blue text.

Original message begins here:
This is a second thread I am posting to outline the steps I have used to install Forms on a Windows Vista Home Basic laptop. The other thread describes installing Forms 6i:
Forms 6i installed and running on Windows Vista
Please read through the initial part of that post for the background. I realize Oracle has not certified Forms 10g to run on Vista, but the time has come for my associates and I to upgrade our old computers to new desktop/laptop platforms, and I would hate to acquire XP machines and be stuck with them for the next 5 years. (Note: Since first posting this message, Oracle has certified Forms 10g Patch 3 (version 10.1.2.3.0) to run on Vista) So after another person informed me that he had Forms installed and running on Vista, I went ahead and bought one. I found that as long as I set the compatibility mode to run Forms programs as Windows XP (and a few other changes), Forms 6i and 10g run quite satisfactorily.
Update 29-Jan-2008: Unfortunately, it turns out that the Forms 10g Builder running on Vista had a major flaw: If you try to develop a form, the Builder will crash if you try to compile a procedure that calls another procedure in the form that has errors. The problem is reported and described in this thread: Error compiling a form under Vista
Update 12-Mar-2008: Installing Patch 3 on Vista does not help with this problem -- the Builder still crashes in the same situation.
Update 25-July-2008: Applying Patch 7047034 has corrected the problem. See this link within this thread: Forms 10g: Installing Patch 7047034 on Windows Vista
Webutil note: I am stuck in a Forms 6i client/server world, so all my forms must run in that environment. Therefore I have not used any Webutil software, and I do not know whether that part will run under Vista.
Internet Explorer note: On Windows Vista, IE CANNOT be used to run the Web Forms runtime. It crashes immediately when you try to run a form. Instead, I can use either Firefox (Firefox 2, Firefox 3.0 Crashes with Forms 10g) or Netscape, as long as they are set to disable java. [ Correction: IE7 on Vista now runs the Forms 10g forms. You just need to add "?config=jpi" to the browser URL when starting the Web Forms session. More IE/Vista info: [url=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=642973]Vista JInitiator Problem ]
The Oracle Developer Suite download page:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ids/index.html
Oracle Developer Suite Installation Guide:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25016_07//doc/dl/core/B16012_04/toc.htm
The steps below are those I followed to install Forms 10g (version 10.1.2.0.2)
I. Preliminary system changes in Windows
When I started installing, I got the following error message: Install has encountered an error while
 attempting to verify your virtual memory settings.
 Please verify that the sum of the initial sizes of
 the paging files is at least 256 MB.To fix this: Go to Control Panel, System and Maintenance, View amount of RAM and processor speed (under "System"),
Advanced system settings (in left "Tasks" column), Advanced tab, Settings (under "performance"), Advanced tab:
Virtual Memory shows a "Total paging file size for all drives: 2337MB.
Click "change", Uncheck "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives"
Click "custom size:", set Initial size to: 2048, Max to 4096
Click set button, then OK, get message:The changes you have made require you to restart your computer before
 they can take effect.Restart the computer.
II. Installing Forms 10g
1. Download two files from Oracle:
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip (626,122,752 bytes)
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk2.zip (236,880,881 bytes)
2a. Before extracting, it is a good idea to shut down any virus protection software. It can sometimes prevent some files from being created.
2b. Extract both into the C:\oracle directory, as disk1 and disk2.
3. Using Windows Explorer, change the properties of setup.exe in the C:\oracle\disk1 folder. (In windows explorer, right click, properties, Compatibility tab.) Change the compatibility to run as Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
4. Right click setup.exe and click "Run as administrator"
5. Select "Installation type" = Complete (1.11 GB)
6. Received this message:Windows Firewall has blocked this program from
accepting incoming network connections. If you
unblock this program, it will be unblocked on all
public networks that you connect to.
C:\users\steve\appdata\local\temp\orainstall...
2007-10-29_11-59-08am\jre\1.4.2\bin\javaw.exeI clicked "Unblock"
7. Received this message: "Provide outgoing mail server information" I entered the smtp mail server that I use.
8. A summary screen displayed showing 274 products under New Installations.
I clicked the Install button.
9. Received this message: You can find a log of this install session at:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2007.....log
10. The installation completed. Installed products shows Forms 10.1.2.0.2
III. After the install completed
1. Create a shortcut to the Forms 10 Builder on the Desktop.
On the shortcut line, after the .exe, add *userid=userxxx/pwxxx@orcl* so Builder automatically logs into 10g database. If you do step 4 below (creating an easily-accessible folder to use for your forms) change the "Start in" path on the shortcut so it points to that folder. Otherwise, Forms Builder will not find referenced objects and PLL libraries when it opens a form. Also do the same on the Start, All Programs shortcut for the Forms Builder.
Edit: After applying Patch 3, the following steps are not necessary.
Set its compatibility to Windows XP.
Set checkbox: "Run this program as as an administrator." (Without this, FormBuilder will NOT open a PLL library.)
Click the "Show settings for all users" and change values there.
2. Copy "Start OC4J Instance" icon to desktop.
Set its compatibility to Windows XP.
The first time it runs, I got a Windows popup to unblock program named Java. I clicked "Unblock".
3. tnsnames.ora:
Rename C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
to: tnsnames_orig.ora
If you created a tnsnames.ora file for Forms 6i, just copy it to the path above. If not, do this:
Create a new tnsnames.ora file, copying entries old file on my old laptop, which contains all the connections I use.
Delete the old laptop entry, replace with new entry for the new local ORCL connection on new laptop from tnsnames file renamed from the c:\oracle\... ...\10.2.0\db_1\ path.
4. Optional: Create an easily accessible folder to store fmb files:
C:\users\steve\.1\fmb10
You don't really want to keep drilling into C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms, and then find your .fmb file among the several dozen oracle-supplied files.
To create a folder named .1, you have to open a CMD.exe (Windows DOS) window, and type the Make Directory command:
MD .1
That will create the folder within the current directory -- mine defaults to C:\users\steve
Note: If you also need to use Forms 6i like me, DO NOT EVER open a .fmb file in the Forms 10 Builder from the Forms 6i folder. If you compile it, or even worse, save the .fmb, Forms 6i *cannot ever* access the file. Instead, always use the File Manager (Windows Explorer) to copy the fmb from the fmb6 folder into the fmb10 location.
5. Change the Forms 10g Default.env file using a text editor.
This file replaces all the settings originally written to the Windows Registry (GREAT idea, Oracle! I hate the registry.) No more Regedit. The default.env file is located at: (DevSuiteHome_1 path)\forms\server\default.env
Locate line with: FORMS_PATH= and add:
;C:\users\steve\.1\fmb10
Add a new line:
FORMS_MMAP=FALSE
The above allows compiling an fmx while the form is running.
Add a new line:
FORMS_ROWLOCK_OPTIMIZATION=FALSE
(This fixes Oracle bug number 3949854, which prevents automatic skipping if the same value is typed over another value. TAR 4806199.993 Automatic Skip failure...) See bug 4068896
Add a new Line:
FORMS_RESTRICT_ENTER_QUERY=False
This allows use of Query-Where window in enter query, after entering a colon in any input field. Without this, Forms returns FRM-40367: Invalid criteria in field nnn in example record. Oracle shut it down to prevent "sql injection" attacks.
6. Jiniator setup:
Run file jinit.exe in C:\oracle\DevSuiteHime_1\jinit\jinit.exe
It installs Jinitiator 1.3.1.22.
I installed it in C:\oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.22\
For Firefox, make sure a copy of file \bin\NPJinit13122.dll resides in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins.
For Netscape, the path is: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Navigator 9\plugins
7. Browser settings
See the note above about using Firefox 2 and not Firefox 3!
In Firefox 2 go to: Tools-> Options-> Content
Uncheck the "Enable Java" checkbox
--Firefox terminates if this is not done!
Note: After my system automatically installed updates to either java or Firefox, re-check the "Enable Java" setting. I am suspicious that one of these installs re-enables java in the browser.
Also note: some web sites cannot display properly if java is disabled. Example: U.S. time website: http://www.time.gov Use Internet Explorer to view these.
In Netscape make the same changes as Firefox. Without disabling java, it also terminates when you try to run a form.
Creating a url to use in the browser:
Try this:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet
If it does not work, change the 8889 port number as follows:
Open file: C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\install\portlist.ini
Note the number in line:
Oracle Developer Suite HTTP port = 8889
Use the number as the port number.
You can also change the 127.0.0.1 to the computer name:
Control Panel, System and Maintenance, See the name of this computer (under "System"). Mine is "steve-PC"
So the alternate URL is: http://steve-PC:8889/forms/frmservlet
To try out the URL, start the OC4J instance set up above. Then start either Netscape or Firefox, and enter the URL. You should get a welcome screen.
If the above URL works, start up the Forms Builder, and open Edit, Preferences. On the General tab, uncheck the "Build before running" check box (optional). On the Runtime tab, set the "Application Server URL to the url above.
To run a real form, add this to the URL after frmservlet, (with no spaces):
?form={formname}&userid={userxxx}/{passwordyyy}@{connect-string}
but replace the parts in curly braces with the appropriate values. Example:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet?form=ABC&userid=abc123/zyx@orcl
Setting up Forms Builder to directly run a form in the browser:
Run the Forms Builder. Go to Edit, Preferences, Runtime tab.
Set the Application Server URL to:
http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet
(or use whatever URL string you developed above)
Set the Web Browser Location to:
"C:\Program Files\Netscape\Navigator 9\navigator.exe"
(or an equivalent to run the Firefox browser).
8. FORMSWEB.CFG file changes
The file is located at:
C:\ORA_DS_101202\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\server\formsweb.cfg
I changed the following two lines in the file, but these are my personal preferences:
separateFrame=true
lookandfeel=Generic
9. FMRWEB.RES file changes
For Oracle help: Enabling Key Mappings
The file fmrweb.res defines actions (triggers that run) when a function key is pressed while running Forms. The one released has unix-style key mapping, but I prefer keys originally mapped for Windows PC Forms users. There is a fmrpcweb.res in the same folder that can be renamed to fmrweb.res.
In the C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms path, I renamed fmrweb.res to fmrweb_orig.res.
I have a file that I prefer to use, so I put it into the folder as fmrweb.res. The contents are listed below. It is organized so the most important keys are listed alphabetically at the top (URFD column is the sort column), followed by a group of less-important keys. These are keys that are available to users, but they either would not use, or are disabled within most forms. The URFD column in the second set starts with a hex A0 character, which is a high-order space, so collates after normal alphabetic characters. (Note: If you want to copy the text below and use it, the hex A0 character has been changed by the forum software to a space. So you would need to use a text editor with hexadecimal character capabilities to replace the space with the original character. )
My file has special keys defined for F2 (I use it for a debugging Key-F2 trigger in my forms), and a "Cursor to Home" F12 function. All the rest are pretty much the same as in the released fmrpcweb.res file, only mine are organized alphabetically on the URFD column.
The Web Forms fmrweb.res file is editable using any programming editor (NOT MS Word!!!). The old Client/Server key mapping file, fmrusw.res, could only be changed using the Oracle Terminal program (and it is a pain to use).
Here is the main part of my fmrweb.res file:#

I followed your instructions and installed Developer Suite 10G on Windows Vista Home Premium edition. I have Oracle 11G DB running on the same machine.
Two points, Steve:
1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?
Regards

HT1296 Hiya, I am thinking of buying my first Apple Ipod the new 32gb Ipod Touch. Will I be able to import the music that I currently have in the form of CDs and other music not purchsed from Itunes and if I can how do I go about doing this? I have heard

Hiya, Im thinking of buying my first ipod the Ipod Touch 32gb model. Will I be able to transfer the music I currently have stored in the form of CDs and already on my laptop onto the Ipod and if yes, how would I do this? I have heard from some friends that Apple and Itunes is notoriously limited in the types of formats that are accetable? I dont want to pay £249 on an Ipod only to find that Im locked into buying all my music from Itunes and I cant use the music that Ive already paid good money to buy from other sources. Many thanks for any help and advice that you may give me?

Many thanks JEM24 for your help. Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone the actual cost of each additional gigabyte of storage to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.

Can I create a form in muse and have it work with a different hosting service?

I contacted a hosting service that I need to upload the site I built in MUSE to. (Hosting has already been purchased). I asked OMNIS:
I want to create a form with Muse and then upload my site to OMNIS, not muse, the forms will display as I designed them, but they will not function. I have someone to help me who is experienced in working with code. I can use Muse to export my site and then open the files in an HTML editor. "Update the source code of the form to make it compatible with the form processing technology used by your hosting provider (OMNIS) before you upload the files to their server." Can you help me with this? Do I need to get a script or something from you?
OMNIS ASKED me:
What are MUSE's site requirements?
I will be building other sites and my clients may want to have the site hosted elsewhere. Can you give me the easiest way to deal with forms?

Thank you for getting back to me Morgan.
I read in another forum:
There's a handy piece of software from CoffeeCup Software called "Web Form Builder". It's pretty affordable and easy to use and it can be hosted on the server of your choice provided that server uses an up-to-date PHP script.
This is what I have been using....but I would rather not have to deal with a third party form builder at all.
Do you reccommend this?

Mouse Over Toolbar In Forms 4.5 and Registry stuff too

Is it possible to create an MS Office 97 /ie3/ie4 type of mouse
over toolbar in forms 4.5.....
I'm trying (with litlle success) to use images as buttons ...
unfortunately i have a lot of problems
1. each button has 4 states: flat, up, down, disabled... which
leads to 4 bitmaps...... 16 buttons * 4 bitmaps = 64 bitmaps to
be loading depending on what buttons are doing....
2. 1 could be solve by an array of images ( i think.... )
which would be loaded at runtime and swapped into the buttons as
i'd go.....
3. programming all those triggers... to deal with the mouse
states is very labourious and tricky (so what) but also i would
think quite ineffient.......
so if anyone could help me i'd really appreciate it
Also... does forms 5 maybe suppourt mouse over toolbars????
and lastly..... does oracle provide any mechanism for reading
from the windows registry..... to allow username and company
name to be extracted at runtime for use in a splash screen a la
MS word/excel/vis c++ etc
all help would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks

1. Check the tnsnames entry in forms 4.5 and 10g home
2 open a command/dos prompt
set the ORACLE_HOME (eg set %ORACLE_HOME%=C:\dev10g
set the TNS_ADMIN
3 Run tnsping <Enter your hostname>
4 Also check if you have recently installed any virus scanner /any other appln
5 Also run sqlplus from the command/dos prompt

Creating a purchase order form that has a flowable layout" Help Tutorial

Regarding the "Creating a purchase order form that has a flowable layout" Help Tutorial, I can't seem to get the data to pull in for just the PO in question, is there a secret?
Ideally, it should create one form for each PO with the detail lines for each PO on the individual forms. Can we do this?
Many thanks!

Hi
If the smartform purchase order is not available in your system
means you can download the form IDES and you can upload the form in ur ecc 6.0 system.we faced a similar kind of problem in our system and we did as i said.
Once you uploaded the things you can easily view the form interface and rest of the things related to smartforms.
Thanks and Regards

I bought a new MacBook Pro (Mac Os 10.8.4) when conecting my mobile broadband dongle (Huawei E122) the computer does not read it at all. I do not have problems when connecting it to my former computer (PC) and a Mac from last year. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Yes, I did that. They have uppgrades for the dongles, but just untill Mac Os 10.7. Their solution is to buy a new modem from them or getting one for free if I sign a contract for 24 months! So, i think from that side not very helpful.
It is just that I do not want to buy a new modem, when it works in quite recent computers and after having spent money in the new Mac.
But thank you for your reply!

Acrobat 9 Form won't mail from Vista- help please?

Id like to thank all past help from the forum. Sorry I haven't written my gratatude before this. That doesn't mean I don't apreciate the help. I've gone from one super frustrated and dissapointed user to someone slowly begining to apreciate exactly what Adobe 9 Pro really is, mainly from what I've picked up in this forum.
So far I've managed to make a registeration form that can be e-mailed to people, they fill it in and click the send button and I get it back. When it arrives, it even updates the database properly. I'm so proud about this achievment too... Except for when a Windows Visa and probably Windows 7 user tells me it doesn't work. They report an error when trying to send the form back! Grrrrr. What have I done wrong?
Just when I thought I was doing so well, this happens. It's been very hard for me to learn the fundamentals of Acrobat 9 Pro at an age when most people around where I live are struggling to understand how to program their microwave! -- Well not quite but I'm sure you get the meaning.
When I get a problem like this all I think of is that if I took the time to understand what I was doing it wouldn't happen. Then I wonder if maybe an easier solution exists. When I calm down and realise there are still some people in the world who are willing to help and not trash your efforts, I'm sure someone here will know the answer and hopefully, point me to it.
Once again, thanks for the help in getting me going with this software. I'm glad now I didn't buy some cheap clone stuff.
Doug.

I'm unsure if I can post a link here to the form. But I'll give you a run down. I used the "forms" selection of Acrobat 9 Pro to create a registeration form. It can be downloaded from my web site and sometimes we attach it to an email. Interested people fill in the form (at this stage it is being seen with acrobat reader in a web browser). There is a purple line at the top of the form with instructions to click submit form to return the completed form.
The form is "distributed" although I'm unsure what Adobe mean by this description. My guess is that the return end that does the record keeping is activated.
I might point out that I've had a lot of problems with forms and the Adobe solution is one my instructor at night school suggested. I thought offering the ability to return it by email or if that didn't work, print it and fax it back was enough until I learn a better way of doing it.
Although this looks like quite an nice way to do it, the delay in loading the form is one issue I am concerned with and the fact at least 4 of my 40 replies (so far) have had to fax it bothers me. I'm open to any suggestion (costly or otherwise) that is going to overcome this problem as forms become more and more important for my operations.
Thanks for your reply. If I can discover it it is in order to post a URL here to the form, I will.

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.
