How can I notify users if form is open

I have a form which is stored on the network, the user then creates a shortcut to the form (to save email space) then emails the shortcut to a selected team to review and apply their electronic signature, what I would like to be able to do is is warn the team if the form is already opened prior to them trying to sign and save.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received

You could create a form action to save the form into initialization.
Condition: When form "youform" has finished loading: Save the form.
This save will fail if somebody else has this form opened.
The save will happen in background and you should catch the error to show a proper error message to the user.

  • How can I export a PDF form and the filled in fields to a text document?

    OK, so I have a situation.  I need people to be able to open a reader-enabled PDF form, fill out the form fields, and then export the filled-out PDF form to a basic text document.  This seems easy since Adobe Reader can save to text.  The problem is, the answers in the form fields do not show in the text file!  Each radio button shows as yes and no, and there is no indication in the text file which one was selected.  In addition, the form fields are not exported next to the questions on the form.  I tried flattening the form in Adobe pro, and that did not work either.
    How can I create a fillable form for Adobe Reader, and then let the user export their answers AND the questions on the form to plain text?

    OK, so I tried this as a starting point, and assigned it to a button on page 3 of the form.
    p=0;
    console.show();
    console.clear();
    for (var j = 0; j < this.getPageNumWords(p);j++) {
          var word = this.getPageNthWord(p,j,false);
          console.println(word);
    This gives me all the words on the first page not in fields, and each word goes on a separate line.  Now, characters in the document such as "&" or ")" cause the rest of the word to go on the next line down.
    Next, I tried this:
    console.show();
    console.clear();
    for (var j = 0; j < this.getPageNthWord(j);j++)
          var word = this.getPageNthWord(j,false);
          console.println(word);
    This only gives me the first word on page 3, the page the button is placed?
    What I need to do is run the code and place words on one line until the code hits a keyword "var cKeyWord1 = “Key1” for example?, then insert the value of field one, Start a new line in the console, restart the code where it left off until it hits the next key word "var cKeyWord2 = “Key2”, insert the value of field two, add a new line, and on and on.
    Is this possible?

  • How can we notify the Manager

    Hi All,
    Can you please give me idea for the following
    The idea is to having, some users will enter data in Input Schedule and save it as excel. This is ok
    The problem here is how can we notify to the Manager that the excel is ready to review? after that they review it and send to database.
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards,

    If you keep data outside of BPC (in Excel) then just send an email manually, like you saved the spreadsheet manually.
    Work outside of BPC can't be controlled by BPC.
    If you want to keep data inside BPC then use Work Status that allows you to send notifications.

  • How can I notify to VoiceOver an event so it can be announced (iOS)?

    Hi,
    I'm creating app for blind people. When I was developing for Mac I could use the NSSpeechSynthesizer interface to get accesso to voices APIs, but I found that this is not possible on the iOS because the voice API are not public.
    The problem I'm facing is simple. I have an application the does some things. As a result it should announce to the user the produced calculation. So, due we can't use voice apis, i suppouse the VoicOver must be active. The question is: how can I notify VoiceOver to read a label o something else when I finished the required task?
    Thank you for helping...

    If the calculation is a number, you could pre-record the various amounts needed and then formulate the answer as a combination of the various amounts and then play the resulting sound using AudioServicesPlaySystemSound.

    hi Friends,

  • How can i restrict user to access database object (procedure) or JSP

    Hi
    I have 9ias infrastructure 902, on win2k box with 9i DB.
    and I have one PL/SQL web application and another J2EE application both are hosted by 9ias 902.
    Now we are looking forward to couple both with SSO.
    I have deloyed samples of both and works fine.
    Each application have different set of users, i mean there is no common user.
    How can i restrict user not to view the web page which is not authorised to them.
    as far as i understand from the Grocery demo is pick the role (which is a string only) from OID and programaticall apply security via if else endif construct.
    can any one through light upto my concern.

  • How can I use User-Defined Aggregate Functions in Timesten 11? such as ODCI

    Hi
    we are using Timesten 11 version and as per the documentation, it doesn't support User-Defined Aggregate Functions.
    So we are looking for alternatives to do it. Could you please provide your expert voice on this.
    Thanks a lot.
    As the following:
    create or replace type strcat_type as object (
    cat_string varchar2(32767),
    static function ODCIAggregateInitialize(cs_ctx In Out strcat_type) return number,
    member function ODCIAggregateIterate(self In Out strcat_type,value in varchar2) return number,
    member function ODCIAggregateMerge(self In Out strcat_type,ctx2 In Out strcat_type) return number,
    member function ODCIAggregateTerminate(self In Out strcat_type,returnValue Out varchar2,flags in number) return
    number
    How can I use User-Defined Aggregate Functions in Timesten 11? such as ODCIAggregateInitialize ?

    Dear user6258915,
    You absolutely right, TimesTen doesnt support object types (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13085_01/doc/timesten.1121/e13076/plsqldiffs.htm) and User-Defined Aggregate Functions.
    Is it crucial for your application? Could you rewrite this functionality by using standart SQL or PL/SQL?
    Best regards,
    Gennady

  • How can i find the installed forms version in 6i...?

    Dear all,
    How can i find the installed forms version in 6i, the situation is we have given a solution which will work in only forms6i latest version, before implementing the same we need to check whether the forms latest version has been installed or not
    Is there any way to find out without opening the forms builder..?
    Even if we un install the forms from a machine, the forms60_path variable will remain in regedit, so we cannot go based on that and aslo i dont know whether regedit will have the version details and all.
    It would be greatly appreciated if any one can give a solution.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Thangaraj.

    you query the registry, the registry has the version number saved, but I cannot remember exactly where and I don't have 6i Installed on my machine.
    You just open the Forms Builder and click on Help/About.
    But Jan's method is the best.

  • How can I fill in a form, save the form such that it cannot be further altered, and email it as it was saved?

    How can I fill in a form, save the form such that it cannot be further altered, and email it as it was saved?  I created a form with 5 fields.  It is a form letter that is intended as a receipt for funds received.  I want to fill in the date, name, amount received, etc., save the form with inserted data fields so they can't be further altered, and be able to email it as a complete unalterable PDF document.  What I'm doing now, is filling in the fields, printing it, scanning it, and emailing it as an unalterable document.  The document was created on a Mac using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 10.1.13.  The document is filled in on a PC that only has Adobe reader on it, printed, scanned and emailed as an attachment. There must be a better way! 

    If you have access to a ASP.net Web Server, then the submission could be FLATTENED with FDFToolkit.net and emailed without client-side email software by only using Adobe Reader.

  • How can all the users in my computer (my kids) have access to all the photos I have in I Photo?

    How can all the users in my computer (my kids) have access to all the photos I have in I Photo? My photos only appear when I (the administrator) log into the computer. I want my kids to be able to access them also.

    For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
    What you mean by 'share'.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
    (You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

    Hi,
    OK. Following instructions, I've uninstalled the old Flash Player and installed the right one, and videos are now playing. Thanks for pointing me to the other posts on this site. YouTube and other videos are now playing
    Some of the videos still play jerkily (they don't stream evenly). A few stream evenly once they've been allowed to buffer fully. (I think I'm using these terrms correctly.) Is this solely caused by low bandwidth, or is there something—an adjustment of some kind—that I can do with Flash Player to have online videos stream evenly, even from the moment I start them?
    As I mentioned, to bypass this uneven streaming while watching online, I download the videos and watch them usually using Quicktime Player 7.6.4. Still, they don't always play evenly, but for the most part do.
    I've just tested bandwidth and I'm told:
    5.63 Bbps Download speed
