Need Help creating form with checkboxes

I am using Acrobat Standar 9, and I am trying to create a form that has a bunch of checkboxes on it. First off, the PDF that I am workin with (before I try to input form stuff) is a check list that has spots for marking (if it was printed out). Acrobat will recognize all of those places as spots for a form tool, but it always inserts textboxes. I want it to insert check boxes. So far all I can do is delete all of the textboxes that were inserted and manually, one by one, insert check boxes in all of the locations.
Is there a way to make the wizard input checkboxes instead of text boxes? If not with the wizard, is there any way to do that? (I am not familier with programming languages.. fyi)
thanks

Thanks for getting back to me. What I have is a pricing page. The feedback form is so we can see who views or is interested in services. We want only people who fill out this form to be able to view it. I have created simple contact forms that are sent to an email and directed to another page. The problem I am having is trying to figure a way to where hopefully if the same person comes back they won't have to fill out the form again. I know if they fill out the form and create a user name/login it could be a possible fix but I am trying to make it simple. I am just starting to learn PHP/XML (which I have copied from another sources) and haven't written my own. Maybe creating a cookie that is checked once the page is loaded? I have no idea how to do that either though... I am a front end "designer" and a lot of this is greek to me.

Newbie needs help creating folder with different date buckets

A simplification my scenario, I have a table, Invoice, which contains invoice amounts and invoice dates. I want to break up the invoices amounts into date buckets, such that my target report should look something like this:
Invoices<30 Invoices<60 Invoices<90 Invoices>90
$100 $250 $500 $1000
I have created a folder from the Invoice table, and would like to know if it is possible to create new items within this folder to allow me to sum invoice amounts over the 0-30, 30-60, 60-90, 90+ invoice date ranges. In other words, can I create new items that each have their own condition?
I have seen other solutions that use a custom folder backed by a SQL query using case statements to break a table down into its date range buckets. Is this considered the "right" approach to the problem?
A simpler solution I've thought of is creating a folder for each date range (Invoices30, Invoices60, etc), and setting the condition of the folder to do the date filtering. The item "Invoice Amount" in each folder ends up being the bucket I want, and I would put them together in a complex folder, and build the report off the complex folder. Although inelegant and a bit redundant, would this solution work?
Thanks everybody!

Hi Newbie
You can do this right inside Discoverer using a couple of calculations.
Calc 1:
=====
Calculate the invoice date variance, let's say you will use TRUNC(SYSDATE) - TRUNC(INVOICE DATE). This gives you a number and let's call this new calculation VARIANCE.
Calc 2:
=====
This second calculation created the buckets themself. Let's do it using a CASE statement and we'll call the calculation TIME BUCKET.
CASE
WHEN VARIANCE <= 30 THEN "0 to 30"
WHEN VARIANCE <= 60 THEN "30 to 60"
WHEN VARIANCE <= 90 THEN "60 to 90"
ELSE "More than 90"
END
You now display only TIME BUCKET in your workbook. The other calculation, VARIANCE, will be used but not displayed on screen in the final answer.
If you don't like CASE, here's the same answer using DECODE:
DECODE(VARIANCE,
LEAST(VARIANCE,30), "0 to 30",
LEAST(VARIANCE,60), "30 to 60",
LEAST(VARIANCE,90), "60 to 90","More than 90")
By the way, when you do this you will find that Discoverer runs your report very fast. This is because it can handle these types of queries exceptionally well.
I hope this helps

Michael

Need help creating component with 'application.createComponent'

I am trying to create a button component by doing the following
application.createcomponent("javax.faces.command") ;
However it does not seem to work. I can create pretty much any other component by this method but for some reason I am unable to do this with the 'javax.faces.command' component family. Shouldn't this work?

I think that the component type of the commandButton is "javax.faces.HtmlCommandButton"

Need tech help creating project with PE11, Windows 7

I still need help creating a slideshow set to music for DVD playback at my 50th high school reunion.
Video Media = 700 still images in .jpg or .tff format. Pixel sizes range from 200x200 to over 3000x4000.
I first created this project using PE's presets and original image sizes. Images added to PE were more blurred than originals & images burned to DVD were even more blurred so I asked for advice.
Last week several people in the forum tried to help. I really appreciate everyone's suggestions but would still appreciate further advice.
Forum experts said to restart my project with project settings changed to DV 720x480...and to resize my images to 1000x750 pixels. Then today in a PE11 chat session, I was told something different: use project settings changed to DVD 720p 30 and resize only larger images down to 1280 x 720 (leave smaller images alone).
So what project settings and resizing should I use for better image clarity? How do I change project settings? By clicking on "new" under "file" >change project settings >DVD 720p 30 or something else?

Up-rezzing small Still Images, regardless of the program and the Scaling algorithm used, can lead to a diminished quality. As Steve says, pixels are created, where none existed. I try to stay away from up-rezzing, whenever possible, due to that diminished qualtiy.
If I have to work with very small Images, I often use another workflow, and a different asethetic choice. When faced with the prospect of using small Images, I will create a background of some sort (many options here), and then use that small Image at its original size, "framed" within that background - no Scaling involved, but obviously, that small Image will not fill the screen. The viewer usually has fewer problems with the small Image, than one that is larger, but has started to fall apart, due to the up-rezzing.
One "trick" that I use is to use that small Image AS the background, but alter it greatly, probably dropping its contrast and upping its brightness, and even adding a Blur to it, then do a PiP (Picture in Picture) of the Image at its original size. I might even create a "picture frame" in Photoshop, to really set that small Image apart from the background. That is but one of dozens of such possible treatments, and one is only limited by their imagination.
Another possible treatment would be to do a "photo wall" with several of the small Images in say a 3 x 2 matrix of PiP's. Sort of like a Contact Sheet.
Good luck,
Hunt

Create Documents with any Currency

Hi,
it´s possible create documents with SDK objects in any currency?
I need create a invoice in Local Currency or System Currency depending the source.

Hi Victor,
Yes, you can create marketing documents through the DI API and set any currency code (...well, any currency code that already exists in the company setup). The Documents object has a DocCurrency and DocRate property for defining the currency.
Kind Regards,
Owen

Uber Noob Needs Help Creating website!

I need help creating my webpage: It has a textbox on it were
the user enters a URL and it then redirects the end user to that
URL when they press the GO Button. It also has a check box saying
"Hide my IP", If the end user clicks this box and then clicks go
they will be directed to the website they stateted in the Textbox
but this time it shall mask there IP Address so they can bypass
proxys and surf anonomosly. Please can someone give me some HTML
code i could use for this site or a Link to a website that can give
me the code.

I assume the application is connecting to Oracle using an application ID/password. If so, check to see if that user has a private synonyn to the table. If so drop it since you have a public synonym.
Verify that the public synonym is in fact correct. Drop and recreate the public synonym if you cannot select against the synonym name using an ID that can perform select * from inhouse.icltm where rownum = 1. That is if this other user cannot issue select * from icltm where rownum = 1 without an error.
Check that the application ID has the necessary object privileges on the table.
Queries you need
select * from dba_synonyms
where table_owner = 'INHOUSE'
and table_name = 'ICLTM'
You may find both public and private synonms. Either fix or delete. (Some may reference someelses.icltm table if one exists)
select * from dba_tab_privs
where table_name = 'ICLTM'
and owner = 'INHOUSE'
Note - it is possible to create mixed case or lower case object names in Oracle by using double quotes around the name. Do not do this, but do look to see that this was not done.
You could also query dba_objects for all object types that have the object_name = 'ICLTM'

Am creating document with Pages. pages are in "portrait" orientation, but two charts at end need to be "landscape". changing the orientation for one section changes it for entire doc. can i have different orientations in Pages for different sections?

am creating a document with Pages. all pages using "portrait" orientation, except 2 appendices need to be in "landscape". in Word for Windows it is possible to have different page orientations for different sections of a document. is that possible with Pages. Even when i put the appendices in a different section, changing the page orientation changes it for the entire doc.

Make a separate document the size and orientation you want.
Turn that into a pdf and add it back into the original Pages document or into the pdf from from that document.

Need help creating a rectangle with a bunch of text scrolling up within it

Hey everyone, I'm using Motion 2 and want to add a large amount of text scrolling up. Which behavior would be best to use, the Scroll up or Motion Path?
I want to create a rectangle where the text will be scrolling within it but I'm not sure how to do that. I'm I suppose to create a mask rectangle and then add the text?
Please help
Thank You

As with most things there are a number of ways you could do it.
One way is, if your making a rectangle anyway (as a bkg for the text) you can make an image mask (command shift m) on the text object and drag the rectangle into the mask well (then turn the rectangles visibility back on). This works with a filled rectangle.
Of course you have to format the text to fit in the rectangle as it won't act as a bounding type area (like in AI, PSD).

Need help creating script to clear data with user inputs

Hi experts.
I need to create a script to clear data in a DEV system from a particular junction.
Basically, I need the user to enter a CATEGORY, ENTITY and TIME which will then be used to delete all data in a particular table which meetes those criteria.
I tried to write it in SSIS, but can't get a user input box.
Also, Stored Procedures are not designed to open input boxes for these entries.
Therefore, is there a way to do this in BPC script logic?
I believe that I might be able to write either a Stored Procedure or DTSX package and then pass data from BPC Run Package?
If this is correct, how would I go about it?
Also, would it be possible to read the DISTINCT entries for Category, Time and Entity and present as a dropdown list? (It doesn't matter too much if not, a manual entry would have to do).
I will admit that I have no experience of script logc, so any docments and/or pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thank Karthik, but I can't use the clear for this job.
Specifically, I need this to delete from the LCK tables whenever data gets stuck, so if anyone can tell me the format to use, I'd be extremely grateful
(And I appreciate that this is not recommended, but it's a DEV system and we need a way to clear these locks quickly when they occur)

Error while creating document with attachment.

Hi,
I am getting an error "An error occured while creating the original attribute for PDF"
I tried with out file attachment, it works as you know it is simple....
I tried with various types of attachments like .TXT and .WRD (changed both wsapplication and docfile parameters), however i get the same error. I tried both from presentation and application server (by providing   pf_ftp_dest                = 'SAPFTPA'    pf_http_dest               = 'SAPHTTPA' )
Any idea on how to solve this?
All i need is create a DMS document with a PDF attachment from application server. Are there any other ways to solve this issue?

Create document with refrence + update some fields by passing some values

Hello Experts,
I have a small problem . I have to create the sales order from BAPI ...but the scenario is
      have to create with refreence to another document
      some fields like condition types or material or order quantity etc are passed from an excel sheet
hence some information which is populated in excel sheet should be picked up rest everything should be picked up
from the refrence document
How can use both information (from the refrence document and externally passed from the excel) and create a new document
please suggest!!!!
regards,
Khushy

Hi,
I am not sure whether I really understand your request. Let me try to help.
> Example: <FT_TAB> TYPE STANDARD TABLE,
>                 <FS_TAB> TYPE ANY,
>
> DATA: INT_TAB is my dynamic table values.
>
>
> LOOP AT INT_TAB.
> ASSIGN COMPONENT 'MATNR' OF STRUCTURE <FS_TAB> TO <F_VALUE>
> <F_VALUE> = INT_TAB-MATNR.
> APPEND <FS_TAB> TO <FT_TAB>
Here <FT_TAB> must already be assigned to some internal table with a given (dynamic) structure. Did this happen before this piece of code?
What I would do is to create a dynamic table (see documentation to CREATE DATA) with MATNR and the STYLE field (LVC_T_STYL). See the documentation for CREATE DATA - creation of internal tables. When collection the field descriptions for that internal table I would also build the field catalogue for the ALV.
Then assign <FT_TAB> to that newly created internal table, <FS_TAB> to a newly created structure (same as a table line).
Move the MATNR to component 1 (or component 'MATNR') of the table and fill the style table according to your needs. Then insert the <FS_TAB> into <FT_TAB>.
Finally call the ALV SET_TABLE... method with your dynamic table and your field catalogue.

Need help to start with some file and text manipulation

Hello script mavens,
I need help with starting a script that does the following:
-within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
-moves all the files into the images folder
-within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
-writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
-then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder and renames in indexX.html
-in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
The task is more complex but this would help me tremendously do the rest.
If I am asking for too much on this forum please let me know

This should get you started.
The description of how you want to write the data isn't clear, but the rest should work (untested):
property imageNum : 0 -- last used ImageNumber
-- within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-- get the folder:
set baseFolder to (choose folder)
-- now get the files within it:
tell application "Finder"
set fileList to every file of folder baseFolder as alias list
end tell
--creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
tell application "Finder"
set imageNum to imageNum + 1
set newImageFolder to make new folder at baseFolder with properties {name:"images" & imageNum}
-- moves all the files into the images folder
move every file of folder baseFolder to newImageFolder
--within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
set textFile to (open for access file (baseFolder as text) & "images" & imageNum & ".js" with write permission)
--writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
write "//-" to textFile
-- then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-- need more info here
-- a blank line between each instance of the file name? or all file names, blank line, all file names again?
-- an example, please
close access textFile
--from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder
--and renames in indexX.html
--in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
-- the easiest way of doing this is to read the file and write a new copy with the changes - that's easier than changing it in situ:
set indexHTML to (read file "index.html" of folder (container of baseFolder))
set {oldTIDs, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, "replaceThis"}
set indexHTML to text items of indexHTML
set my text item delimiters to "imagesX.js"
set indexHTML to indexHTML as text
set my text item delimiters to oldTIDs
set indexFile to (open for access file ("index" & imageNum & ".html") with write permission)
write indexHTML to indexFile
close access indexFile
end tell

Creating document with content from a remote system

Any sample code that I have seen for creating a new document requires that the file (the content) of the document resides on the Server machine.
What is the best way to create a document with content that comes from a remote file?

The Java code which is trying to load a file into IFS must have access to the file to load it.
If the file you are trying to load is in a remote location from the Java code, then you would need to use some remote access protocol, such as NFS, to ensure the file was accessible to the Java code.
