How to auto save and pre-fill some textfields

first time i open a pdf, there are some textfields. they are all empty.
i click on a button to call a web service. this returns some text and fill in those textfields.
if one of these textfields, "message", has got an auto-filled text "success", then the pdf needs to remember the text in some of the rest of the fields. next time when the user open it, those fields should be with the text generated last time.
notice that the "Do you want to save the file" auto-popup window won't meet my requirement. even if the user clicks on "no" for this popup window, now that i get a "success" transaction from the web service, the fields should be saved.
i read through this, but may not be able to use it. i only have LiveCycle Designer ES3. I don't know how those adminui or process work.

Hi,
in Designer ES3 there is an Auto Save option in the form properties you can activate.
Remember, the form needs Usage Rights to be savable through Reader, so you need Acrobat to apply those rights to your form first.

    Mike,
    Thank you for taking the time to look at my app. This is my last major stumbling block that I have to resolve for this and other forms in the app.
    Actually, I did use the Form Wizard for Auto DML to originally create the form. It was great. It created most of the Buttons, Items and Validations automatically (basically most of the page). I just needed to create some Processes and Computations. Two of which were the Processes to update the 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields and 'update_dt' and 'updated_by' fields. The Create process updates the fields just fine.
    However, my problem seems to be that the Hidden 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields aren't picking up the values from a record that is being editted. Then when I attempt to save the record those fields are NULL, causing the DB NOT NULL constraint to throw an exception for those fields. In the back of my mind I seem to remember seeing some post stating something to the effect that the information in fields with a Source Type of Database Column is just displayed and does not affect Session State items.
    Even with that, I am still wondering just why the 'created_by' Page Item shows the value that is in the DB record being updated, but the 'create_dt" does not (as can be seen in my first posting). It is the 'create_dt' Page Item (:P205_CREATE_DT) not having the DB records 'create_dt' info in it that appears to be the problem.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • How do I activate auto save and versions?

    How do I activate auto save & versions?

    Mountain Lion. Since ML, Auto Save and Version does not work with new user accounts I am creating. The accounts I moved from Lion MBA to Mountain Lion on my RMBP 15 have it enabled.
    So: ML still has the feature, but you may not access it by Preferences. It does - only on new accounts - even not work with TextEdit. With the Accout I moved from Lion to Mountain Lion no such problems.

  • How do I  save and re-use a fillable form once I have created it? It is a form i will use for multiple medcial clients I see, then print out and put in paper chart, and then do it again for another patient. - I just got Acrobat XI

    I've created a fillable form from a Word document, but how do I save and re-use a a fillable form once I have created it? It is a form I will use for multiple medical patients, printing out the filled in form to put in paper chart (no need to save filled out form), and then fill blank form again for another patient? - I just got acrobat X

    Thanks!
    That should also save the blank form for future re-use, right.?
    Can I also file the blank form in the file system, and then retrieve it as a blank form when I have a next patient need for it?
    Thanks

  • How do I save and find files on the ipad?

    How do I save and find files on the iPad?

    Files/documents need to be stored/associated within an app on the iPad, unlike 'normal' computers there is no file system which allows you to save files with no means of being able to read/use them. So if you want to store a file on the iPad you first need an app on the iPad that supports that file type.
    How you then get the file onto the iPad and into the app will depend on what the app is and what transfer method(s) it supports. e.g. some apps use the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, some apps support the transfer of files via your wifi network, the iBooks app uses the Books section of your iTunes (and the device's Books tab) to sync content, and other transfer methods include email attachments, Dropbox etc. The file is then found by going into your chosen app and opening/using the file.

  • Would a 347 MB file be slow? Auto save and auto type turn off?

    I am doing an art inventory and add jpegs of the art. I don't resize them they range from 750k to 3MB. I guess if it is slowing the program down i should? It currently is 267 rows by about 18 columns.
    Thanks in advance.
    Oh can I turn off auto save and auto type? That may help. How do I do that?

    Done.
    Enter Scrip Editor
    paste the posted script
    File > Save > as Script  on the Desktop
    Move the script to the folder :
    Macintosh HD:Library:Scripts:Folder Action Scripts:
    CAUTION, you will be asked to enter your pasword.
    Create a folder to do the job. I named mine Normalized. I created mine on the Desktop where it's easy to reach.
    Go to :
    Macintosh HD:Library:Scripts:Folder Actions:
    Double click the alias :  Configure Folder Actions
    Below the left column, click
    navigate to select your new folder
    Below the right column, click
    select the script image - normalize400.scpt
    After that, drag and drop a picture file onto your folder.
    The original will be move in the folder Originals (isn’t it original ?)
    and a reduced copy  400 x height will be stored in the folder Normalized images.
    And now, here is the script :
    --{code}
    Image - Normalize
    This Folder Action handler is triggered whenever items are added to the attached folder.
    The script rotates the image counter-clockwise (left).

  • Auto Save and Versions not working

    Auto Save and Versions are not working in pages or numbers.  I've worked on a project for over five minutes when I "Xed" out the drop down box opened up and asked if I wanted to save.  Any ideas why?  Also, how do you open up versions?

    There is the problem with that sentiment. I don't like the loss of "save as" either. I think the new save/duplicate paradigm has more steps and is poorly implemented to boot. Yet, people complain far more about Versions and Autosave than they do about "save as"? Why on earth would anyone complain about Autosave? There is no user interface change involved with Autosave. It is entirely in the background. If you don't like Autosave, you are free to randomly delete files from your machine and from Time Machine if you want. I don't see what the point of that would be, but it would give you the same effect of not having Autosave. There is more a user impact to Versions, but it still a really cool feature. Why would you not want to have access to old versions of your document? It isn't going to eat much disk space. The last time someone complained about disk space usage by versions I calculated that it would take 38 years for them to run out of space due to Versions. If you don't want to use Versions, don't click on the Versions tools. Problem solved.
    I don't want people lumping clear losers (like no more "save as") with clear winners like Autosave and Versions.

  • I'm not seeing the Auto Save and Versions features

    I have a document open in Pages '09 and I'm running Lion, but I am not seeing the auto save or versions features that you supposedly get my clicking on the document name. Can someone help? Do I have to turn this feature on in preferences?

    I'm actually working on a Word document that Pages has converted and opened, but the document does have a title bar name. So..I have to do a manual save before auto save will start working?!?
    You don't have to do a manual save. Pages will auto save the converted Word document. If you quit Pages after editing the converted document without saving, Pages will reopen the converted Word document, give it a temporary window title of "Untitiled" and have saved your edits.
    I did think I see a preference setting for auto save that wasn't checked in my preferences.
    I don't think Pages every had auto save. Word does though, and this may be what you're remembering.
    Also, how does all this auto save and versions stuff work…
    Have a read of Apple's support document titled OS X Lion: About Auto Save and Versions. This explains both and how the two features are related but different.
    NB While Pages auto saves new, untitled documents it doesn't create a Version of these documents.

    How do I save and import my bookmarks from another hard drive? When I try to open the installed Firefox on the old drive, it (obviously) opens a browser from the new main drive, free of bookmarks. Is there a way I can save the bookmarks on the old drive without opening a browser?
    The guts of my computer were rearranged and I got a new main hard drive. My old one is still in there and I can get stuff from it, but when I go to the Mozilla folder on the old one, I can't figure out if there's anything I can do to get all my bookmarks from that drive to my new one, where Firefox is newly installed.

    If you open Firefox then Firefox will always use the default profile folder as found via profiles.ini on your system drive.
    You either need to import the file in your current default profile or copy the file to your current profile folder while Firefox is closed.
    Firefox 3 stores the bookmarks and the browser history in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/places.sqlite places.sqlite] and no longer creates an HTML backup by default.
    There are also (five) JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder.
    You can either copy the file places.sqlite to your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] or import the most recent JSON backup from the bookmarkbackups folder of that old profile.
    See:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
    Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders".
    You may want to un-check the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files.

  • Auto Save and Versions

    Where can I control Auto Save and Versions? I can't find it in System Settings.
    Can I control it by terminal commands?
    On http://www.apple.com/macosx/what-is/ Apple claims:
    Versions creates a new version of a document each time you open it and every hour while you’re working.
    While here http://www.apple.com/macosx/whats-new/auto-save.html Apple claims:
    Forget about manual saving and forge ahead with confidence. Auto Save in OS X Lion automatically saves your work, while you work, during pauses and every five minutes. And Lion saves changes in the background so you're never interrupted with progress bars.
    So I wonder every five minutes or every hour? Would be nice to make sure on each Mac itself whether it auto-saves every five minutes or every hour and to actually allow its user o set the frequency.

    It does both. It saves your work in the current version every 5 minutes. Every hour, it creates a new version of the document.
    I haven't searched for any version settings, yet.

  • How do I save and manipulate an attached document through gmail?

    How do I save and manipulate an attached document through gmail on my iPhone?

    I had a client that had hundreds of session variables
    scattered in hundreds of CF pages. There was very little CFLOCKing,
    and consequently the apps were quite unstable in a loaded
    environment.
    What I finally did was to copy the session scope variables to
    ses.request scope variables of the same name, then did a global
    replace of session. with ses.request. In OnRequestEnd.cfm, and
    immediately before all CFLOCATIONs, I copied ths ses.request scope
    back to session scope (locked, of course). There was no measurable
    performance hit, and the apps were rock solid.
    Perhaps you could copy your client variables to session
    scope; then back again in OnRequestEnd.cfm

    PSE keeps your keywords, categories, albums, stacks, version sets, captions, notes, dates, and star ratings in a file in a "catalog folder".  (Do Help > System Info to find the location of your catalog folder).  When you make a backup with the PSE File > Backup command, it copies all your photos and the catalog file into the backup.   When you restore from that backup, it copies that catalog file and all your photos to the location you specify.
