LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Need multiple signatures on one form

Hi
I am very new to LiveCycle Designer, and do not have ES, and probably cannot get it. I have created a form that needs to accept multiple signatures from 6 or more people. The form was initiated from a Word-generated PDF.
I created a table that has four columns, one for the person's title, another for the signature, the remaining columns are irrelevant for this discussion. The person associated with the "title" signs in the Signature column in that same row. In the PDF version of the form, Acrobat 9 allows two signatures, but no more. How can I get Acrobat to accept signatures for all 6+ individuals? The two sigs I got were in subsequent rows. If I can get Acrobat to accept additional sigs, do the sigs need to take place in strict order (1st row, 2nd row, 3rd row...), or can the signers sign in any table row?
Please let me knowif you have additional questions for me that can help you understand how to solve this issue.
Thanks,
AR

Thank you Srini,
This is what I did, for anyone else with the same issue:
Tocreate signature fields in LiveCycle Designer:
Highlight the field. In the Object pallet Type field, select: Document Signature Field.
On the Document Signature tab, make sure that Lock Fields After Signing is not checked.
These fields are a quick way for users to add a digital signature in Adobe Reader.
This seems to work well. I appreciate the help.
Just to bring it full circle, how do you delete a document signature field? Haven't found it in the Help.
Thanks much!

I am creating a form on LiveCycle Designer and I am trying to create a form that has a e-mail submit button. When the butten is utilized it attaches the form to the e-mail in an plain text .xml format rather than the pdf format. Is there a quick fix?

Hi,
You have the choice between xml or pdf, in later versions of designer you can choose with a dropdown on the email button Object palette, the "Submit As";
In earlier version you had to edit the XML Source and change the format from xml to pdf (or vice-versa);

Adding data to multiple tables using one form in Access 2010?

Hi All,
I have a access database with two tables and I want to create a single form to enter data into that tables.
How to adding data to multiple tables using one form in Access 2010?
I don't have to much knowledge of access database?
Please help me
Thanks
Balaji

You really don't enter identical data into 2 tables. You enter dat into one single table, and then you have an unique identifier that maps to another table (you have a unique relationship between two tables).
Maybe you need to read this.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/access-help/database-design-basics-HA001224247.aspx
Think about it this way... What is you update data in 2 tables, and then the data in one of those tables changes, but the data in the other table does NOT change. WHOOPS!! Now, you've got a BIG problem. For instance, you have a customer
named Bill Gates. In one Table you update Bill's address to 1835 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039 and in the other table you accidentally update Bill's address to 183 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039. Now you have 2 addresses for Bill. Why would
you want that??? Which is right? No one knows. If you have one address, you just have to update one address and if there is a mistake, you just have to update one address, but you don't have to waste time trying to figure out which is right
and which is wong...and then update the one that is wrong.
Post back with specific questions.
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

Multiple signatures on PDF Form

I need to solve this last issue so I can put our digital signature initiative to rest.
I have attached a sample of the kind of form we need to be able to create. The first section of this form is an approval document, the second part is a closure record.
I need to be able to lock all of the fields above the first set of signature blocks when first digitally signed but not the entire form. I need the second part on page three to be locked when the digital signature is applied.
Right now any digital signature either locks the entire form (keeping others from signing) or does nothing (allowing anyone to change the content) based on the switch in the signature block object palette Signature tap Lock Fields After Signing checkbox.
I know I can cut the form in half and create two documents but this does not alleviate the problem of needing the data fields to be locked and multiple signers to be able to do so.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Multiple Signatures in one PDF with Field Collection

I have found multiple post throughout adobe forums, and Acrobat Users forums but have yet to find an answer. Often links to the "answer" no longer exist so I'm requesting help here on another thread. I have a form I designed in Form designer, that is being used in Acrobat Pro 8. The first signature is tied/linked to pages 1-5, and lock that data once signed. Then a second signature is needed on page 6 to validate any additional documentation on that page. Signature field on page 6 is also tied to field collection of all fields on page 6. However once any changes are made to page 6, or once page 6 is signed then the signature on page 5 changes (has yellow triangle with exclamation mark.) While the Yellow Triange isn't saying the signature is invalid, it is saying that the document has been changed. However the part of the document associated with the signature on page 5 has not changed. Is there some way to avoid the error on the first signature. This is a serious problem, because I have another 20 pages and every other page or so need another signature. Please, any suggestions are appreciated.

i guess you could do something similar by having one form as a kind of title page/menu and having links to each of the other then just group them into a portfolio
if what you are trying to do is have an index type arangement
otherwise it's subforms as you suggested -

Multiple Digital Signatures in one Form

Hello
I have an Interactive Forms that requires the digital signing of 6 different users. There is a control under the Web Dynpro Native named : Signature : Sign and Lock which allows multiple signatures but I am not able to use it correctly.
I need to associate text fields in the form to a certain signature so when the user signs them they are locked BUT but I need to be able to have other text fields open so another user can sign the form. It is only when the second user signs the form that the remaining text fields are locked
Any idea ?

Hi Mare,
You cannot merge files and expect that the digital signatures will be preserved. When you sign a file you are signing all of the bytes in that file, and only that file. Once you combine files you are creating a new unsigned file. If someone were to sign the new file they are signing all of the bytes in the new file, not just some of the bytes. There is no "page level" signing in PDF files, only whole file signing.
You can however put the signed files into a Portfolio file. A Portfolio keeps the files separate. Think of a Portfolio like a file cabinet in the physical world. Just because you put different files into the file cabinet drawer, they don't merge.

Multiple Signatures for One Account

I have multiple signatures associated with a single account and would like to be able to choose which one to use when composing a new message. There's no choose signature option in the header and it doesn't appear under the header customize menu. I can go into Preferences>Signatures and choose from there which signature to make the default, but I'd like to be able to choose in a more streamlined process. Any ideas?

click on the little icon with the triangle and some lines to the left of the "From" field in a message composition window. in the resulting pulldown menu choose "customize". check the box next to "Signature" and click "OK".
now you'll get a signature pulldown menu where you can choose which signature to use with this message.

Adobe LiveCycle Designer working with 2 drop down list, one response triggers the other

I am fairly new to Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2, but I would like to have a drop down list of managers and another drop down list of employees.
I would like this set up in such a way where the manager can click on their own name in the manager list and have a drop down list appear which is only populated with their directly reporting employees. They can then click on the individual employee they are going to report on.
Then there will be several questions pertaining to the individual direct report, etc. (This part I can do)
Is this possible?
If so, please provide detailed instructions for me to try.
Thank you in advance.

Put this in the change event of your Manager drop down:
var myObj={"Manager 1":"Employee A,Employee B,Employee C",
"Manager 2":"Employee D,Employee E",
"Manager 3":"Employee F,Employee G, Employee H"};
DropDownList2.setItems(myObj[this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText)]);
This is assuming the list of items in that dropdown is "Manager 1", "Manager 2", "Manager 3".
And DropDownList2 is the name of your Employee drop down.

Inserting into multiple tables on one form using UIX

We are developing an application using struts and UIX. We would like to be able to insert into three tables on one form(view). How can we accomplish this?

This is more of an ADF question, you'll need to set up view object, than just drag it from the data control palette like normal.
If it's not already set up as a view in the db (split into multiple tables), you'll need to create a view object that includes all the fields you want, based on multiple entity objects.

Multiple connection in one form, is it possible?

Im trying to access two different database (P.O.7 and the other is an ODBC Compliant) in one form.
First thing i did was to run the wizard on each block using different login (1 for my PO7 and also the other) and it was successful, but when I try to execute the form, it just cant recognized the other block! since im only connected to other datasource....
Any suggestion on what should i do with this....

Check out the EXEC_SQL command under help in Forms
The EXEC_SQL package allows you to access multiple Oracle database servers on several different connections at the same time. Connections can also be made to ODBC data sources via the Open Client Adapter (OCA), which is supplied with Developer. To access non-Oracle data sources, you must install OCA and an appropriate ODBC driver.
The EXEC_SQL package contains procedures and functions you can use to execute dynamic SQL within PL/SQL procedures. Like the DBMS_SQL package, the SQL statements are stored in character strings that are only passed to or built by your source program at runtime. You can issue any data manipulation language (DML) or data definition language (DDL) statement using the EXEC_SQL package.

Multiple records from one form

Hi everyone,
I am creating a sign-up form for users of a website - i need
them to select from a number of categories that they want to be
listed in. i am using a series of check boxes for them to select
the categories. What i want to do is create a separate record in my
MySQL DB for each check box that is ticked that contains the user
ID and the category ID. is there a way to do this from just one
form?

You can save them in a SET column. A SET column type allows
you to store
up to 64 predefined values in a single column.
Create the checkbox group as an array by adding square
brackets to the
end of the name value like this:
<input type="checkbox" name="category[]" value="catA"
/>
<input type="checkbox" name="category[]" value="catB"
/>
<input type="checkbox" name="category[]" value="catC"
/>
To insert the values in a SET column, use implode() to create
a
comma-separated string:
if (isset($_POST['category'])) {
$_POST['category'] = implode(',', $_POST['category']);
else {
$_POST['category'] = '';
More about the SET column type here:

Adding multiple signatures in one interactive form

Hi, I'm creating an insertion form for a client. THey have one area under credit card info that has a signature line, and another spot at the bottom of the form that has another field for a signature.
When I bring the PDF into acrobat Pro and do the form wizard, it only makes one of these boxes have the red tag/signature look to insert a digital signature. My clients wants both signature boxes to have this feature.
I can not figure out how to do this. please help.

After you've added the form fields, including the signature fields and have the form working like it should, it needs to be Reader-enabled in Acrobat. How this is done depends on which version of Acrobat you're using. This thread has more information: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4896660
This enabling really should be done by your client with their licensed version of Acrobat Pro, not yours. It's an Acrobat licensing issue, actually several issues.
In any case, the resulting file is a PDF, the same as what you're working with now.
Another thing to consider is that if the form is intended to be used by the general public, most won't have any experience with using digital signatures. An alternative is to use Adobe's new EchoSign service, which does not use digital signature fields but instead uses an electronic signature (e-sig) process which does not rely on the form being Reader-enabled, so there are no Acrobat licensing issues. But there is a fee associated with the EchoSign service. Digital/Electronic signatures are not free.
Then there are legal issues that need to be considered. EchoSign may have an advantage here, at least over the use of self-signed certificates as are most commonly used with digital signature fields. Even if I knew more details about the form and intended workflow, I can't provide you any specific advice about this.

Need Multiple Instance of MDI Form, Possible ?

Hi,
I have a button in outlook, that when clicked runs an Winforms application as addin. The app has main MDI window and uses lots of .xsd files (Typed Datasets) for database activity.
I have a situation where we want to shift all 2014 data into and as OLD database and only 2015 onwards records with be in current database. But we also want users to view old data.
The immediate thought with minimum changes is that if we can create two instance of MDI Window (Running separately from each other in process ) then both can have different connection strings and program will run as usual getting data
from respective database.
Note: Connection strings are defined in and as global::AppName.Properties.Settings.Default.cnn and same is used everywhere in the code including .xsd files (Typed Datasets)
Any Guidance or Better Thoughts to achieve the task.
Regards

Thanks Phill for the response.
But in both of the techniques I will have to modify the code (SQL) at many places and do round of testing.
Its a 4yr old code and not everything is in stored procedures, some are dynamic sql coming from code etc etc.
Another factor which I forgot to mention was that we want to Re-numbering/Restart of all AutoIncrement Fields.
This might be in conflict with either of your suggestions.
if it was just WinForms application, I think it would be easy to run multiple instance. but in my case its an outlook addin. My view is somehow if it is possible to manipulate and spawn two instance running as different process, that it would be awesome.
Any thoughts ?
Regards

From these words above, it seems that you didn't want to edit the current form, and want to copy that and edit it to display the old data, and do some other modifications, right？
We could create another form and copy all controls and code from the main form, and edit them to display the old data by changing the connection string, but it still needs us modify the code at many places.
We could create another instance of the main form, and get that displayed, but it will still display the same data unless we changing the connection string and query.
To sum up, no matter which way we selected, it still needs us to edit the code include query and connections strings at many places.
>>if it was just WinForms application, I think it would be easy to run multiple instance. but in my case its an outlook addin. My view is somehow if it is possible to manipulate and spawn two instance running as different process, that it would
be awesome.
The key issue is that where did you display these data, you want to display them inside the form, right?
Inside the button click event of that add-in, you could show multiple window forms, one for old data, the other for 2015 data, they will not disturb each other.

Validate multiple signatures on one document

I want to send out meeting minutes to be signed by 3 different people. I made a digital signed validation signature account for myself many ago -- so mine is set up. But I'm at a loss as to how to establish the account for the other two signatories.
Using Acrobat Pro 10

Okay, I give up on creating digital signatures. People can simply enter their name in the form field and return it to me -- these are all interoffice communiques.
I sent the form to myself, opened it, filled out the two fields, hit the submit button and received it successfully.
The two other people I'm seeking to fill out the fields are saying they're getting an "autoreply that states it didn’t go through," after they fill in their name and then hit the submit button.
Again, it successfully submitted when I tested it out.

LiveCycle Designer ES4 Crashes when trying to distribute a form

Hi
I created a dynamic form in LSDesigner ES4. It includes some figures as well as some JavaScript. The form works fine in the PDFPreview mode within LS ES4. When I try to distribute it (choosing "by email", "save locally") Acrobat XI Pro is being opened and crashes.
Does anyone else have that problem. WHen I create a new form containing only a text box, the same thing happens and the form cannot be distributed.
Thank you for your help,
Olivio

Also got a message "Acrobat failed to set up a workflow folder in the specified shared folder or hosted service"..?
