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.

I want to create one query, where the user has to entered a max value when the query is started, so that only the query rows will be listed, where the key figure value (integer) of the row is smaller than the max value given.
How can i define that variable which has to start at the begin of the query; and also the restricted key figure iin consideration of the KF variable.
Thanks for helping

Hi Arnaud,
Go to Conditions-> Right click -> New Condition -> Edit -> NEw -> Selct the KEy figures from the dropdown( the KFs that are used in the rows/columns) -> Select Less than from the operator drop down (less than is for you case) -> Values, there is an option to create a variable -> Select the variable -> transfer.

How to create a form that requires thousands of checkboxes?

Hello forum members,
I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional. I've been searching the internet/forums for the past few hours and I can't seem to find any information on how to create a form with many checkboxes. I do not want to have to give individual names to thousands of checkboxes. I'm hoping there's an easy solution to my problem. Maybe I don't even need to use checkboxes.
Here it is...
I'm a DJ and wedding season is coming up. For each wedding that I do, I usually give the bride and groom a list of my songs and they choose a bunch of songs that they'd like to have at their reception. In the past, I've just been sending them a webpage word document with the songs and they'd send me their selections in a different document or directly in the reply email. I'd like to make this process easy for them (and myself) by making a pdf document where they can simply place a checkmark beside the songs that they want and then send it back to me. As a bonus (if it's possible) i'd like to be able to export the songs that they selected into a separate document so that I don't have to go through the entire pdf (with thousands and thousands of songs) when they send it back to me.
I would be ever greatful if somebody help me or direct me to a link with some additional information.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

George, thank you very much for your quick reply and good advice.

How to create an infotype with one of its field length eq 1000.??

hi ,
i need to create a infotype where one of the field length is 1000 characters how do i achieve this. if i give more than 255 in the PS structure it will not allow. then how do i get a text field of 1000 chars in the screen ( which is an input field)

You can use those function calls even inside a PA Infotype.. they just invoke the text ediotr table control.. I gave you the reference of the PD infotype 1002 just for an idea. I don't think you will able to meet your 1000 char reqt without using the text editor.

How to create a form or data input field

I would like to create a form of one cell (A1) and so create several tables with just one cell (just copy the tables). The value in that cell will change every day via a manual input. I then want to have one sort of aggregation table which will aggregate all (daily) values into one sheet, and show me all the daily values in several columns (each column has its own table)
Would be great if you can help me
Bart

Hello
If I understand well, the answer is available page 90 of the PDF User guide ( in the english one).
+To refer to a cell in a different table, use the table name followed by two colons (::) and+
+then the cell identifier (Table 2::B5). To refer to a cell in a table on another sheet, use+
+the sheet name first (Sheet 2::Table 2::2006 Class Enrollment) if the table name isn’t+
+unique in the spreadsheet.+

How to create two respone for one request

Hi
is there any way for us to create two response for one request
the scenario is as below
1. user click on update button for particular record in the datatable (
after its get updated and status get updated = 'UPDATED' it will remove the object from ObjectListDataProvider and clear the tablePhaseListener ).
2. After it gets updated successfuly , i want to prompt the user with generateExcel function which using response.getOutputStream() using Apache POI.
How can we combine 1 and 2 together
Here what i have tried and didnt work
1. i tried to put the generateExcel function in destroy() method after page is rendered but it gives me Exception
2. i tried to put the generateExcel function in prerender() method
but the page will only execute the generateExcel function
- the data still get updated to the database but it doesnt refresh the page ( i meant the removing object and tablephaseListener.clear() doesnt work )
3 . i tried to put generateExcel Function after it process the data
public String updateData()
       //update data
       if(success){
            // prompt user to save excell sheet
        return null;
     }This one also doesnt work and gives the same behaviour as number 2
The Prompt to save excel sheet still gets popped up
but the page just doesnt get refreshed
Thanks
is anybody know the workaround?

yea i did set some alert message and clear the table by calling
provider.removeRow and commitChanges
it just doesnt reflected in the page that we see
by actually is already removing the row from the provider
Thanks

I have created a form which will be filled out by customers and sent back to me via 'submit' button. What I am trying to figure out is when we receive the filled out form, is there any way to have it as a pdf. To clarify, when the form is filled out and sent, the receiver opens the email and attached is a non-editable pdf. This way the customers information is no longer editable.

Hi Tina,
To copy either a Script or a Smartform fron one client to another client i.e from reference client 000 to any client say 010 follow instructions as given below:
Go to Tcode SE71->Give Form name MEDRUCK then go to Menu path Utilities->Copy From Client, give
Form Name: MEDRUCK
SOURCE:000 (it will be already there)
Target Form: Zmedruck(here give ur form zname)
Execute
It will be copied into all languages.
Then come back to SE71
Give your form name Zmedruck
Language:: de then goto change mode
then menu path->utilities->convert original languge to En and enter you will get a message original language of form zmedruck converted from de to en,
now change language de to en in se71 main screen and then do what ever changes you want to do , this is how you can copy a script or smartform from one client to another client.
