How to create a form with sequential file numbers everytime it is saved?

I created a pdf form in LiveCycle and my plan is to have people to fill in the form, then print it. Each time the person fills in the form, it should have a new file number. Like the old carbon copy receipts. I believe that either it counts and verifies if it exists or it uses an xml file. How can i make this happen, i am very new to this so any help will be truly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi sebvoid,
Did you ever get an answer to this? I am wanting to do the same thing.

  • How to create a form with two column headings

    I have a business request to create a data form to handle multi year data by month. This will require creating a form with two column headings - with the first row be Year and second row be month, and data entry will begin in the third row and down.
    I can do multiple row headings in the layout design, but somehow can not get it to work for multiple column headings.
    Thanks in advance

    If you're in the "Layout" tab, simply pull the "Years" dimension and the "Period" dimension into the Column section. Planning can be a little picky about where you "drop" the dimension as you're dragging and dropping it. Drop it in the cell directly under the letter name of the column. Other than that, there's not much to it.
    Hopefully this helped,
    - Jake

  • How to create a form with DW CS3?

    Hi all,
    I want to create a form to gather email, address information on a website. Question, can I do that using
    DW CS3? and what else do I need in order to do that? I know there is more to it than just creating a form
    with fields, that there is programing behind it. I use 1 and 1.com for my hosting.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You'll need a form to email processing script.  Ask your host if they provide one you can use.  If not and your server supports PHP, I highly recommend this one from DB Masters.  It is safe, secure and with good spam prevention built in.

  • How to create a form with jsp

    I want to create an HTML form using jsp.
    It has a couple of selection boxes. The options for the selection box needs to be read from a file.
    As I understand it can create the form in HTML. And somhow uses jsp to read a file on the server get, the data and create selection box. I can have a class on the server side that does the actual read - forexample
    SelData.class.
    Would appreciate it if some one can outline how this is done.
    - thanks

    * Pass the data used to populate the select options to the JSP page in the form of a bean.
    * In the JSP page, iterate through the bean, using the data to "fill in" the attributes and body of the option tag.
    This tutorial should help a great deal with these concepts: http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.1/tutorial/doc/JSPIntro.html#wp69778

  • How to create editable form with non-updatable vo

    Hi,
    i need to create a new form on non-updatable VO.
    My requirement is: i have Data base View, based on that view i have created VO, based on this VO i need to create new form, when ever i submit a request, web service will invoke and that validate the data and sends to the data base.
    when ever i drag drop the vo i couldn't able to enter any data bcoz all the data are coming in the form of output boxes.
    can any one help how can i create this.

    Check the setting of your viewobject attributes settings, most probably they are 'updatable never', set them to "updatable always".
    This way you can drag the view as an editable form.
    About sendind data to the database, i guess you have an idea how to do it afterwards :)

  • Creating fillable forms with Live Cycle that can be emailed, saved, printed, etc. by anyone!

    So I started using livecycle because the forms one can make are astounding, its a great program except for sending the forms out to be filled in especially to those only with reader. I've looked over a lot of past discussions and the answers seemed too complicated. Here is a workaround for not so computer savy folks like myself.
    First, create your form, use everything the software has to offer to make your form exactly like you want and yes you can use the "submit by email button" that's what it's for.
    Second, once the form is complete one seemingly complicated step to fix the "attach as pdf instead of xml" if your form keeps attaching as "xml" if it already attaches as "pdf" then skip the rest of the "second step"
         go to the top and click the "view" menu, then select "xml source"
         then go back to top and click the "edit" menu then select "find"
         type "xml" without the quotations and keep clicking "find next" until you see the "submit" line (eg. <submit format="xml")
         change the "xml" to "pdf"then go back to the "design view column" if you get a "parts of this or that cannot be whatever" message just click ok or ignore
    Third, assumming you used the "submit by email" button like you should be the find that button and click the center somewhere, too the right a "field" box comes up
         enter your own email address, you can enter an stock email subject to or leave it blank
         also, a bit further down it says "presence" then "visible" I like to change "visible" to "visible (screen only)" this way it does not show on the printed version. That is one of the things i like the most about this program, you can put text boxes, signature boxes, any kind of
              box and make it visible, visible only on print, only on screen, etc. you just have to play around. It's nice to put a large text box with instructions for how the person should fill out and what to do that helps them and doesn't show up on print.
    Ok, the above is a lot of words but if you print it out and follow step by step you'll see how easy it is and after a couple runs you won't have to look at your cheat sheet again.
    Fourth, So, it was easy to figure out how to make a form the frustrating part was sending it out to be filled in save, printed whatever then sent back to me (now you). the problem is, the form has to be distributed to be approved so to speak. If it is just for one person that is no big
         deal, just first click "file" "save as" give it a name it reverts into adobe pro and asks how you would like to distribute, follow the instructions you send it to whomever you like they fill it out and submit it back because your email address is linked to the "submit as
         email" button. But what if its just a form you want on the company share drive anyone can open fill out, save, send to you or send to someone else, that's where it's tricky.
    Fifth, Distributing to yourself so you can approve the form for world wide dissemination.
         Same procedure as above for the single recipient but instead of sending to someone else you send it back to yourself by entering your own email address again when it asks "how would you like to distribute your form--same as above"
         click "send now via email" enter your address they will return it to (but it's not they this time its really yourself)...follow the instructions, specifiy a generic folder that will collect data (you can delete later, you don't have to collect data unless you want)
         put in your email address as the recipient. change the stock email subject and message if you'd like, then click done, it will email you the form. close out the live cycle and adobe programs and go to your inbox (may take a min)
    Sixth, open your attachment.(no remember you submitted the form to yourself but think of yourself as someone else like a customer) when the form is open you can enter stock fields if you like or do nothing...click the submit by email button, follow the instructions and s
         send it back to yourself again (don't get confused...it's really you as the customer sending back to yourself as the owner of the form) if you are a criminal think of it as like "laundering money through a bank" you are laundering the form through your own email system
         close out the form and go to your inbox again an open the returned form. now when you open it there is something new. there is a box that says "this file is a completed form (even though you didn't enter any data---it's a laundered form now) and leave it on the
         "add to existing data set" which is the one you created earlier in the generic folder....click "ok", now the form changes once again, there is a new look to the top, don't worry about it just go to the top right of the form and click on "options" then "save file as" give it
         a name again and remember where you saved it to. then close adobe and say yes when it asks you if "you want to save changes to your data set"....say yes!!
    7th, forget the data set, no longer is important...find the form you saved and open it. go to the top and click the "advanced" button then "enable user rights in adobe reader" then click "save now" this is the final form so name it appropriately and place it where you want
         people to find it, they can now open, fill out, print, save as, email, whatever. The only downside is if they use the submit by email it automatically defaults to your email but when their email client opens they can delete your address and put someone else if they want.
    thats it...lots of words but it really is easy after you do it a couple of time. the final downside, if the final form works but you decide to change anything on it with LiveCycle, you have to go back through all the steps or it will tell whoever opens it in reader that the original
         has change and they cannot do anything with it, but it's ok, make your changes or improvement, by now you are an expert at laundering live cycle forms, take you 5 min, no worries!
    Happy Laundering!!

  • How to creat a document with a file

    i'm coding a texteditor-like programme.
    I did use a Jtable instead of a JtextComponent's subclass to display & edit text.
    however, i want to realize some function just like a texteditor such as undo & redo.
    Shoud i must creat a document to realize function i mentioned above?
    if yes, i searched in the google to find that always use method jtextComponent.setDocument () to automatically creat a document by files loaded in the jtextComponent.
    if i just creat a jtextarea for creating document & did not make it visible, whether it will waste too much resouces
    or i should make a subclass of AbstractDocument to transformer file to document?

  • 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.

    However, the view large images is an issue for a form that is being distributed. Either a note needs to be added to the PDF to tell how to enable the view or the images need to be changed so that the enabling is not needed.

  • I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this?

    I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this? I have 4 blocks of Single Choice fields in order for the summary page to give me each day in the final report. But, I need the user to be able to make a selection of any day and time and that apointment to no longer be available to future users when they log in. Plus, when the user clicks on the time, they are unable to change their mind and choose another time. Here's the link if you want to see what I'm talking about: 2015-2016 Workload Apportionment Review

    I'm afraid not.    It's not rocket science but you need to do some coding. 
    You'll need to find a script (php) and save it to your local site folder.  Then reference the script in your form's action attribute like so.
         <form action="path/form-to-email-script.php" >
    The input fields in your HTML form need to exactly match the script variables. 
    I'm  assuming you're hosted on a Linux server which uses PHP code.  Linux servers are also case sensitive, so upper case names are not the same as lower case names.  It's usually best to use all lower case names in your form and script to avoid confusion.
