New user with several questions on forms and useage.

Once a user fills out a form, is there a way to make the data in the text fields un-editable?
While I'm here, on the same form there are several fields that are required to be filled out. Is it possible to prevent the user from being able to save the form before they fill out the required fields?
I have an Excel file that when opened asks the user for certain data and automatically puts the entered data into the required cells using VB. Is it possible to do the same in Adobe?
Been using Acrobat for years, but my company only uses it for simple pdf creation and maybe putting stamps on customer supplied files, so these probably seem like simple questions.
By the way this is on Acrobat 8 Pro.
Thanks for any help!

Once a user fills out a form, is there a way to make the data in the text fields un-editable?
Yes. The best is by using a digital signature. Second best is by using a script to set the fields as read-only at some point.
Is it possible to prevent the user from being able to save the form before they fill out the required fields?
No. You can set fields as required but that only applies when the file is submitted. You can display an error message when the file is being saved if some of the required scripts are not filled-in (using a script), but you can't prevent someone from saving the file.
I have an Excel file that when opened asks the user for certain data and automatically puts the entered data into the required cells using VB. Is it possible to do the same in Adobe?
Yes, that's possible. Again, using a script.
By the way this is on Acrobat 8 Pro.
This is quite an old version, not compatible with any current operating system. You should consider upgrading...

  • New user with a question..plz help

    I have a MSI ms-6390 and i can not figure out on how to use my Vipper V770 agp card to work..i am curertly using the on board video..i went to bios and disabled the vga share memory size and when i restart it..both my onboard and my agp video card do not work..please help

    I'd look further into your BIOS settings.
    I am not familiar with that BIOs so I'm speculating. There is no need to disable the Memory share for starters.
    It sould disable it automatically..I could be wrong here.
    There should be a setting that will allow you to choose initialization settings. Something like "Integrated Peripherals" Under that setting there should be a setting "Init Display First"
    AGP should be selected. You may have to play with these settings...That is if you can see your BIOS sisnce you claim that now both don't work.
    Also try reseating Your Memory, you may have jostled it loose while you were in the case.

    Dear sirs,
    Could you please help me on my problem with my apple ID
    I create new account with security questions, and when I try to purchase paid application,it ask me for answers the questions but it's not working,
    My account have 50$ and still didn't buy anything

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • How to create new user with more than one default folder

    hi
    A new user created in OCS has only one default folder(Inbox).
    I want to create new user with customized default folder.
    for example:
    a new user has more than one default folder(Inbox,Outbox,Draft,Dustbin...)
    And also I want to automaticly enable the functions:
    When sending messages, place a copy in Outbox
    Keep message drafts in Draft
    Move deleted messages to Dustbin
    who know that?
    thanks

    The same reason that Apple and 3rd Party vendors put multi-size templates in one file I expect. I am trying to construct an in-house standard template for use in our company, and it is easier to manage if there is only one file to send to people rather than many - both initially and for subsequent edits / updates to the template.
    Of course it would be possible to create several templates (one for each size). But since it is clear that templates can be combined, it appears sensible to do this - unless the doing of it is horridly complicated

  • How can i create a new user with only read rights ?

    How can i create a new user with only read rights ?

    You are asking about a Database User I hope.
    You can look into the Oracle 8i Documentation and find various privillages listed.
    In particular, you may find:
    Chapter 27 Privileges, Roles, and Security Policies
    an intresting chapter.
    You may want to do this with the various tools included with 8i - including the
    Oracle DBA Studio - expand the Security node and you can create USERS and ROLES.
    Or use SQL*Plus. To create a
    user / password named John / Smith, you would login to SQL*Plus as System/manager (or other) and type in:
    Create user John identified by Smith;
    Grant CONNECT to John;
    Grant SELECT ANY TABLE to John;
    commit;
    There is much more you can do
    depending on your needs.
    Please read the documentation.
    -John

  • Create new user same as a existing roles and Privileges

    Hi Team,
    I am a junior DBA. New user Joined in Application team. So, Client requested me.....
    Crerate new user with same privileges as like as existing user.
    As of now i am creating user like "create user username identified by "password". Then grant privileges to that user. earliar I never comapare or copied users.
    Please suggest any one how to create new user as like as existing user roles and privileges.
    Thanks,
    Venkat

    For basic cloning:
    select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('USER', '...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('ROLE_GRANT','...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('SYSTEM_GRANT','...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('OBJECT_GRANT','...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_granted_DDL(‘TABLESPACE_QUOTA’, ‘...’) FROM dual;
    Then just replace the username with the new one you want to create.

    Firstly make sure you have enabled Siri. Go to settings>general>Siri and turn on, may sure you complete the My Info etc.  Also go to settings>general>restrictions and turn Siri on there. 
    To use Siri press the home button to speak, you can also 'raise to speak' but be sure you enable that in settings>general>Siri>Raise to Speak and turn on.
    Finally, have a look here for more help http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4992

  • How do you change an used ipad to a new user with a new itunes account?

    How do you cange a used ipad to a new user with a new itunes account?

    plug your ipad to your computer, open your itunes, click on the ipad icon, at the first page there is an option to "restore" ipad to its factory settings, click it. Don't remove USB connection, wait until it finishes wiping the data and it should place a new window that asks you to register the ipad.
    There you go, your iPad is sync with your itunes account under your name, its best to also use "Find my iPad" just in case it gets lost, you can track it from your computer. Very handy tool and its free!
    But if you want the data that is in the iPad, back up it first and sync the content to your library before restoring it to its factory settings
    Have a great day and enjoy your iPad

    I have a brand new ipad with iOS 6.1.3 and an imac with OS 10.5.8. I cannot update my OS on this machine, but want to sync the new ipad. What can I do?

    If it's an Intel Mac, you can upgrade it to Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, you need to use these instructions and/or iTunes Match to put content on the iPad.
