HELP! Feasibility in FORMS 9i

I have the following requirement to be done from a front end application.
1. PDF has to be called from the Forms 9i application.
2. Pass some values from the Forms 9i dynamically into the query of the PDF.
3. Based on the values passed dynamically into the query,
some values have to be populated in the PDF from the database.
4. Should be able to enter additional values in some blank columns of the
PDF and save it.
Please suggest me whether Forms 9i could cater the above requirements. If so please advise as how to work on it.

Hi,
1-3 can be done with calling Oracle Reports from Forms. For 4 you need to have PDF writer installed

Creating help in a form

Hi,
I need writing a help in a form and I have some informations to put in the help.
I tried, this but I get an error at the end indicationg a @ is missing:
$x = @"
-Nom du produit tel que publié par le fabricant
- Ne doit pas contenir d'espace
- Débuter les mots avec des majuscules Exemple: Office
$helpprovider1.SetHelpString($TxtNomLogiciel, $x)
Also, I give a try to that but the text is not well format and the help box will be off the form probably because the string is too long.
$helpprovider1.SetHelpString($TxtNomLogiciel, "-Nom du produit tel que publié par le fabricant
- Ne doit pas contenir d'espace - Débuter les mots avec des majuscules Exemple: Office")
What should I do?

Hi,
Finally I found out this will be working:
$x
=@'
-Nomduproduittelquepubliéparlefabricant
-Nedoitpascontenird'espace
-DébuterlesmotsavecdesmajusculesExemple:
Office
$helpprovider1.SetHelpString($TxtNomLogiciel,

How to use F4 help on PDF form

Hello,
I'm using Adobe Interactive Form with WebDynpro for Java.
I'd like to use F4 value help on Adobe Form.
Does anyone know how to implement F4 help on PDF form ?
Regards,
Koji.

Hi,
SAP Note: 1013227.
But you should have ZCI based forms. Note: 1055911 and 1042394.
It always makes sense if you specify the NetWeaver SP release you are on along with any other information that you think is important.

Value Help on Adobe Forms

Hi,
I'm trying to implement one search help (F4 on sap) on adobe forms. I just do this process
For standard value help in Adobe forms:
1) In layout chose UI element 'Value Help Drop-down List' from WebDynpro Native Controls of Library Palette.
2) In Object pallete ->Binding tab, update Default binding with corresponding field .
For ex: You have context like below
-NODE
-FIELD(type LAND1)
In Default binding, $record.NODE.FIELD
since LAND1 is a standard type, you will get all the values in value table T005 in the F4 help
3) Make sure the 'Type' of the field in Object pallete ->Field tab is drop-down list.
But i can't see any action on adobe. May the properties of the the attribute field on context are wrong.
Anyone can help please.
Thank you.

This is the code that the program create:
                var processingValueHelp = ContainerFoundation_JS.getGlobalValue(event.target, "processingValueHelp");
                   if(processingValueHelp == false) {
                       ContainerFoundation_JS.setGlobalValue(event.target, "processingValueHelp", true);
                       this.rawValue = "";
                       this.clearItems();
                       ContainerFoundation_JS.SendMessageToContainer(event.target,
                                                                     "valueHelp",
                                                                     this.dataNode.somExpression.replace(/(xfa.?\.)(datasets.?\.)(data.*?\.)/, ""),
                                                                     this.rawValue,
                                                                     event.target.mouseX,
                                                                  event.target.mouseY);

Field Level Help on Tabular forms

Hi,
Is there any easy way I can add field level help to tabular forms?
If I create a form on a table I can add help for each field, however if I create a tabular form there seems to be no way I can associate field level help with a column.
I know that I can add page level help and could describe all of the columns there, but it would be nicer to add individual help to each column.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin!
Take a look at these sites which will provide you more information about your problem.

Help with Custom Forms Report

Hi there,
I recently created a new custom web form in BC that appears to be working fine.
My problem is that when I go to custom reports, in filter criteria I can't see my new form under the 'Custom CRM Form Filter'. All my other forms are appearing here however.
Am I just missing one small step?
Thanks for the help!

Yor form must not have any custom fields, which is why it isn't in that
dropdown. You can use the case subject to filter the cases where the case
subject is the webform name.
Cheers,

Help fix my form

Hello everyone,
I have been reading the forms for a couple weeks now and I have learned greatly from them. I have experimented, tried to implement different things on my form and I have in my limited Adobe experience came close to what I am trying to achieve.
However; I am still having a couple issues and I am asking for help again. I have created my form and have created dynamic fields that duplicate when you choose the "add row" button to my table. It will also delete the added row with the delete row button. This works successfully. After that I have a text field that I have told to allow multiple lines and that works successfully and I will need it to expand to multiple pages if necessary. I think this might work however have not fully tested that feature. The issue I am having is when my table rows are added they cross over the text field just below duplicating table row. I know that the form can be told to push down the fields as rows are added so this will not happen however I just can not seem to figure it out. I am not sure if it is something in my subform settings, hierarchy structure or what.
I have also created a second table at the bottom of the form which I need to add rows on demand also. I used the same java code for that table and row adjusting for the second table name ( ) (Table2._Row1.addinstance(1);) however it is not adding the rows on demand.
I have seen many people post their form on here and others "fix" them and provide helpful guidance. I would like to ask for help with my form and would like to post it so it can be reviewed by any kind person that is willing to help but I do not know how to link my form.
Can anyone help me with my first issue of telling me how to post my form and then possibly help with fixing my form??
Thanks,
Shane

Shane,
You need to configure your subform as Flowed. By doing this when you add rows, it pushes the other fields automatically.
Let's say, for example, that you have in your page a group of textfields then a table and finally another group of fields:
Page 1
textfield1
textfield2
textfield3
table
row1
row2
textfield4
textfield5
You should put all of this in subforms and set up as follows:
Page 1 -> Flowed
Subform1 -> Positioned
textfield1
textfield2
textfield3
table -> Flowed
row1
row2
subform2 -> Positioned
textfield4
textfield5
The subform1 and 2 you can either set as Flowed os leave as Positioned, but have in mind that when you want some field to have dynamic behavior, like grow, you need to set up it parent subform as Flowed. Thus your dynamic fields won't grow up in front of other fields.
This is how I work, if anyone has another idea, please come up
Hope this helps.
Diego

SAP Search help in Adobe forms

Hi ,
Can any one help out by mentioning the steps to capture details using webdynpro with search help and then switching on to pdf application with those details?
Regards,
Deepthi Lakshmi.A.

hi, Jkuma,
we met the similar situation with you while developing a anpplication form for HR.
our conclustions are:
1. it's not feasible to put all the data into the form, it will make the form too big and slow, so it must be a online interactive form
2. you may put a search field to let the user to input some kind of criteria and do the search on the r3 side and return the hit list on the form , but it's not so easy to develop a table control on the form using javascript to get the selected one.
3. so we built a 'selection screen' , using webdynpro for abap,
it will show up before the form, while can use ddic search help, to make the selection, then put all the selected entries into the adobe form for further processiong.
how this is helpful hint for you.

Help with HTML form,please!

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to write an HTML form that would allow user to login if he/she has already created username and password AND that would let him/her create an account in case the user is not registered yet. The code below creates a form that allows the user login after what this provided data would be sent to some servlet:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Meeting-scheduling</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H2>Login To Meeting-Scheduling Program</H2>
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="someServlet">
Username: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="username" SIZE="25"><BR>
Password: <INPUT TYPE="PASSWORD" NAME="password" SIZE="25"><P>
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" VALUE="Submit">
<INPUT TYPE="RESET" VALUE="Clear">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Now,I can't figure out how to add another button, for example, that would trigger another servlet and/or open another form and that would allow user to create an acount. Is this feasible at all? What I basically need is two forms on a single page triggering two different servlets. Thanks a lot,Jimmy.

Yes u can trigger as many as servlets u want ,by using Javascript.make a normal button to act as submit button
for e.g
document.frm.action="/servlet/servletname"
dovument.frm.method=post
document.frm.submit()
I hope this helps u :),if u still have problem mail me at

Urgent help - MUSE email form not working - PLEASE HELP

HI to all!!
I'm having a big issue here with Adobe Muse cc 7.0
I have my personal domain www.shepherdtextiles.com
and third party host (here in China which is 72e.net (and yes, got all php and so on requirements Adobe Muse needs)
I follow carefully all steps to add a simple contact form, adding first [email protected] and changing it to my personal hotmail when I saw it wasn't working to try if with hotmail could work, but didn't.
I have checked the Muse PHP Diagnostics and as you can see the mail one failed.....
I used first the simple contact form that comes with Muse and later I used one from museresources.com but none of them seemed to work
I'm just guessing that something is not well setup on my server because I just follow all steps Adobe mentioned and I watched many videos where people do it very simple.
The error I get on my website when I click on submit button is "The server encountered an error"
There is NO error when I export to html or warnings, just exports fine.
PLEASE HELP
Many many thanks!
Vic

I'M having a similar problem with my Muse website Formally hosted by GoDaddy. The contact me widget does not send an email when you click submit button. Normally, it accepts with a green check mark in another screen. It does not do that. The submit just turns black when clicked, but nothing else happens
THe he regular email works. I am able to send and receive. It just does not work with the contact widget

Help with exporting forms based data to Excel 2007

I have a user who is attempting to export forms based data to Microsoft Excel 2007 and when he attempts this he receives a message stating that Windows does not recognise this file type (tsv). I am not too familiar with Office 2007 so I am unable to direct this users as to how to correct this issue.
Is someone able to give me the navigation path to help me to assist this user? thanks

Did you verify the file type from Windows Explorer?
1) Right click on My Computer > Explore
2) Go to Tools > Folder Options
3) Click on File Types tab
4) Check if TSV file is defined there or not. If it is not there, click on New and add the File Extension

</form>
By the way, the date boxes work so excuse the Javascript in there!
To prevent SPAM I've used a trick where there's a hidden URL field which must be left blank for the form to submit which you can see in the PHP.
Below is where I'm at with the PHP which is placed above the header of contact.php...
<?php
if (array_key_exists('submit', $_POST)) {
    $position = $_POST['position'];
    $arrive = $_POST['arrive'];
    $nationality = $_POST['nationality'];
    $parttime = $_POST['parttime'];
    $depart = $_POST['depart'];
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $telephone = $_POST['telephone'];
$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Recruitment Application";
$message = $headers;
$message .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
$message .= "E-mail: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: My Website <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
$message= "
$url = stripslashes($_POST["url"]);
if (!empty($url)) {
header( 'Location: http://www.go-away-spam-robots.com' );
exit();
if (!isset($warning)) {
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
header( 'Location: http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/sent.php' );
?>
I would like to make pretty much all the field compulsory so if a field is left empty (other than the hidden URL field), a warning message is displayed next to that field.
Also I would like the file upload field to attach to the email that is sent to me and have the results come through to me in a table format.
Can anyone help me get my form working?
Thank you and I hope to hear from you!
SM

Hi Nancy,
Great stuff, thank you for the reply.
I've managed to get the Formm@iler working and running as I need it to.
The only thing I'm struggling with is when the user clicks submit, they are taken to a page of whatever results the form returned but it is just a white background with Times New Roman text.
How can I have it so the user is taken to the form results in the websites' page layout?
I tried sending them to a generic 'thank you' page by adding the following code but it just took them there whatever the results of the form so that's no good...! I have a feeling it's a bit more complicated than that...
header( 'Location: http://www.nofussbus.co.uk/test/sent.php' );
Thank you for your help!
